Corset Sizing

Corset sizes do not apply to your regular clothes size. 

All corsets are sized by waist size rather than clothing size. 

Corsets should be ordered 2-6 inches below your natural waist measurement,
 depending on the desired effect.  

For those of you who are petite your waist will not compress as easily, or as far, as a person who is larger.  The best rule of thumb is for a waist that is 32” or less you would order a corset that is 2- 4 inches smaller than your current waist size.  If your waist size is 34" or higher, then you should order your corset 4- 6" smaller.

Therefore a person whose natural waist size is 32 inches should order a corset size 28-30 inches.  For a waist size of 42”, you would choose a corset size of 36-38”.   All corsets should be comfortable to wear.

Do not lace your corset too tightly during the first few weeks of wear – your new garment should be ‘broken in’, whereby the fabric is allowed to take the strain evenly and the corset adjusts to your body shape – and your body similarly adjusts to the compression.
Measure yourself in inches around the fullest part of your bust, the narrowest part of your waist and around the top of your hip bones.  Make sure not to pull the measuring tape too tight, and always measure 2 or 3 times for accuracy!

These corsets are created to fit your body so it's snug, but not uncomfortable. Our corsets fit comfortably at the ribs and hips and compresses only your waist, allowing for easy breathing.

Lacing Instructions
Instructions here assume that you have someone to lace you in.
Unless otherwise specified, the instructions are for the wearer.

• 1. Open the front busk.
• 2. Loosen the lacing at the back, as wide as they will allow.
• 3. Get into the corset by simply wrapping the corset around you.
• 4. Close the front busk, starting at the second stud up from the bottom, and proceeding upwards.  The bottom stud is fastened last.
• 5. Check that the waist of the corset is where your waist is and that the corset is straight and not tilted, straighten necessary.
• 6. Lacer: Start pulling the laces from upper and lower end towards the middle.  Keep the gap even when tightening.  Wearer: Check that your breasts are where you want them to be for the desired effect. If not, pull, lift or push until they are!
• 7. Lacer: Check whether the corset is tight enough. If not, tighten more and check again.
• 8. Lacer: When corset is laced tightly enough, tie a knot or bow to keep the lacing from opening. NEVER bring the ends around to the front, ALWAYS tie them at the back.

**Reverse the procedure to remove the garment.

It is important to ensure that the gap at the back of the corset is parallel all the way up and down; otherwise, the bones may twist.  Avoid having the gap at the top and bottom of the corset larger than at the waist. Remember: The corset may not produce the exact desired shape until you are able to close it completely; this may take several weeks. You do not have to get to this stage if you don’t want to, you can have a gap if you are just wearing the corset for comfort. Do NOT be tempted to over tighten -go gradually over the several week period. Failure to observe this precaution may result in damage to the corset, to say nothing of your comfort and health.  

 

HINT: Wear the corset moderately tight for about a half an hour. Then, you will find that you are able to tighten some more without too much effort.
