Meanwhile, meeting aspiring actress Coleen, she agrees to work in her new dress shop. Playing an Earls fiance, Coleen is required to corset herself down to twenty inches. Initially hating the constriction, she starts to love the feeling, the poise and her new sumptuous figure. Stage part over, her figure helps her to win Hollywood film parts. Mary finds that her own new corsetry entrances her husband. But the war and his Special Operations separate Mary from normality and death gives her a new profession: Widow. Marriage is for life but widowhood is not a life. Working in fashion, caring for a relative and having a young son is demanding. Months later, researching fabrics for leading stage productions, a psychic meeting, tight dress style and many admirers mean her single life is in the balance. This realisation takes her towards a second chance of committed love.
