If you do not have my corset size in store can you order one in for me?

Do you have more products in your boutique than online?
Yes, we have a large selection of our products online, but do have more in store. 

Do I need to make an appointment to try on a corset?
Appointments are not necessary for corsets or general clothing, however if you wish to come after hours you can make an appointment.

I am looking for a corset which will reduce my waist by about 4 inches, are your corsets able to achieve this?
Waist reducing corsets must be steel boned, and our corsets do have 16 bones.  The purpose of the boning is not to squash you in, but to hold the fabric taut, thus distributing the tension of lacing and preventing the corset from wrinkling, folding at the waist etc. Contrary to popular belief, boning in a corset actually makes it more comfortable, so don't be fooled into buying a lightly boned corset thinking it will be easier to wear. Corsets should also include a steel busk at the front (unless they have a specific corset style zipper such as Heavy Red) and should be laced at the back through quality two-part eyelets such as ours. Some corsets are often sold with pretty ribbon lacing, but this is usually not very durable, and ordinary ribbon is not really strong enough for the kind of tension it will be subjected to when the corset is laced in. Our corsets have the proper lacing.
The standard waist reduction for waist training is about 4 inches, our corsets have a waist reduction on 4-6 inches.  Anything over this would be used for tight lacing, which our corsets are not really designed for as tight lacing ranges requires a 6-10 inch reduction.
