The Arcadia (aka. “Herbarium”) Corset features an embroidery design that captures our inherent connection with the earth. It is inspired by an illumination from a medieval manuscript on herbalism.  

It is made from recycled wool and features velvet lace detailing for an extra flattering shape, which can be adjusted to your liking. The straps are also adjustable with the buckles, and there is a hidden zip on the side for comfort and ease. The corset can be worn alone or comfortably styled with a blouse underneath.

It's absolutely fantastic!! If you're planning to wear it over a single thin layer, like a blouse, and would prefer a more snug fit, I'd suggest to size down.

In love!

Definitely my favorite thing in my closet. I can't wait to wear it to the event I'm attending later this month. It's very sturdy but soft, and the embroidery is gorgeous.

Absolutely beautiful

I had my eye on this corset for a year, and I was finally able to get it recently and it’s even more beautiful than I imagined. The fabric, the stitching, the embroidery, everything is perfect ✨

A wearable piece of art

Wow, what a lovely corset, I've worn it a few times now and felt so happy every time! So soft to the touch, with gorgeous embroidery and wonderful little details. It has a little side zip that helps with putting it on and off and of course can adjust the laces to tighten or loosen it. I wasn't too sure how to take care of it as you can't wash it (except dry clean) but the staff at Solai were quick to reply to my messages on how to take care of the garment. Overall, so happy I bought it and will wear it for many years to come!

We take pride in producing slowly, with intention — every garment is crafted with care, not mass-made. Our makers are paid living wages, and our studio is a creative haven, not a factory floor.

We work with sustainable materials, often reclaimed or recycled fabrics rerouted from landfill — because we believe in creating wearable art that respects & honours the earth that inspired it. 

When you invest in SOLAI, you're supporting:

  • Ethical, small-batch production

  • Artisan craftsmanship

  • Regenerative materials

  • A sustainable, art-rooted alternative to fast fashion

We're committed to transparency and will soon introduce Product Passports — QR codes included with each piece — that reveal the item's supply chain, so you can see exactly where, how, and by whom it was made.

Our pricing reflects the true cost of thoughtful creation.
