Spirella was a company which manufactured made-to-measure corsets. It was founded on a patent of dressbone, for bustles (Spirella 1 and Spirella 2), but started corset manufacture in 1904. At its height it had factories in the USA (New Haven, Connecticut, Meadville, Pennsylvania), the UK (the Spirella Building in Letchworth, England) and Sweden (Malmö). Their flagship location was Spirella House on Oxford Circus.
