A mere undergarment or instrument of torture at the time, the corset was responsible for several incidents on the set of The Bridgerton Chronicle. Actors will have a chance to breathe: from the 3rd season, the casing will no longer be mandatory. The decision was made by the series team after several complaints from stars, including Simone Ashley, who appeared in the second season.
Too bad for the anachronism, the production promotes health, as a source explains to the British tabloid on :”The corset is notoriously tight, and many actors have complained to the costume department about problems, both short-term and long-term, after 12-14 hours on set.“
Hematomas, breathing problems… the list goes on. Simone Ashley even broke her shoulder on the set of the second season. in the interview glamorousThe actor recalls the first day of filming, where he had to eat a lot:I realized you can’t eat when you wear a corset. It changes your body, I was even a waist too small for a while.”
Wearing a corset also requires the team’s help at all times, as it is impossible to even put on shoes. So Simone Ashley hails this new policy as a revolution: “Now we can wear bras and that changes everything for meHe delights in the interview time. I can do twelve hours a day and feel comfortable.“
To find Bridgerton’s heroines – without a corset – you have to be a little patient. Season 3 isn’t due out on Netflix until the end of the year. However, a spin-off series on Queen Charlotte is expected on May 4.
