By Zeus, I think I've got it! How to make your bra into a corset-back bra!
I just posted an adventure, but I thought the solution deserved its own post. Original adventure: http://www.bratabase.com/profile/4lp/adventures/3078/
Results: http://imgur.com/a/dx4tm
I wanted a bra that, instead of a hook and eye closure, laced up the back like a corset. This would work best with a longline, but I tried it with my Curvy Kate Elegance (CK1401) and an extender (white for visibility).
I fastened the extender's hooks to the last set of eyes, making it a loop (if anyone can think of anything better for this, let me know). Then, I hooked the middle set of eyes to the bra's hooks. It'll be backwards kind of, but the tension should hold it together. I got a spool of ribbon I had lying around (the thinner, the better) and from there, just laced it like any corset (or shoelace) in the two sets of eyes that this made. Viola!

That's such a good idea!
Thank you! After Ereshiy's suggestion of a do-it-yourself, I had to figure it out! :P
