The Ossuary

About

The Ossuary is a gothic boutique in Salem selling one-of-a-kind evening gowns, wedding attire, cocktail outfits, corsetry and gifts. Much of the stock is handmade or produced in small batches, including pieces from labels such as Foxblood and accessories like the handmade Hook Belt and Harness from local designer Trued Apparel. It is aimed at shoppers looking for dark, dramatic clothing for a wedding, a formal event or a night out.

Corsets are a specialty. In the Salem shop, staff help customers fit a corset to their measurements and give advice on lacing and sizing for their body type. The boutique also runs an online store with dresses, separates and sets, corsets, shoes and boots, accessories, jewelry, pins and its own merchandise. For more casual everyday goth styles and boots, the owners run a sister store called Die With Your Boots On.
