Madonna Wears Period Corsets(R) to Grammys

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 8, 2006--Period Corsets is proud to
announce that Madonna is performing at the 2006 Grammy Awards in a
custom turn-of-the-century Lilly corset made by Period Corsets by
Kaufman-Davis Studio. The show will air on CBS Wednesday, February 8th
at 8 p.m. EST.


Period Corsets' craftsmanship is usually hidden, but this year Madonna
is wearing Period Corsets fashions as outerwear. From the opera singer
at the Metropolitan Opera to Madonna in her newest video, Period
Corsets creates elegant garments for theatre, fashion and historic
costumers.

Period Corsets is a Seattle-based company with a worldwide clientele.
Owners Rebecca Kaufman and Susan Davis have worked across the country
in highly-regarded professional costume shops since the 1980s. In
1997, they merged their knowledge of historical costume and costume
technology to develop the distinctive period silhouettes that have
come to define Period Corsets' acclaimed aesthetic.

Period Corsets provides the underlying foundation for costumes at
university and regional theaters, in opera, film and television
productions, and for individuals. Period Corsets' underpinnings have
been worn by the character Alma Garret in the HBO series Deadwood, by
actress Evan Rachel Wood in The Missing, and by cast members in the
film Cold Mountain. On the stage, Period Corsets' garments have
featured prominently in the musical hit White Christmas, and in the
opera Death in Venice at Glimmerglass Opera in Cooperstown, New York,
among others.
