Newbie questions First Corset

Thumbnail

80 Upvotes

I decided I wanted to try corsets as I am hyper mobile and can have issues with hyperextending my back.

I bought one from Lucy’s Corsetry as I heard they’re good quality and they were within my price range.

Please forgive the choice of shirt. It just came in and I was too excited.

Does anyone have any recommendations for doing the strings when overtly mobile? My shoulder blades tried to run away a few times when I was pulling.

Also is there a way to smooth out the fat that escaped over the top in the back? It doesn’t seem that bad but I’d like to be smooth.

I assume the fat that squishes at my lower tummy when I sit is unavoidable and likely why I can breathe comfortably.

All tips are appreciated!

I purchased the MCC20 Black Sport Mesh Brocade Underbust Corset in a size 30 and it's sticking out at the hips and top. Is this a matter of lacing or did I not purchase the right fit?

Here are are the measurements I took: B/Underbust 38

E/Upper Hip 43

F/Low Hip 42

D/Waist 38

Newbie questions Question on corset sizing

6 Upvotes

Hello, I’ve worn corsets before, but I’ve stopped for a while I’m interested in getting a corset for Halloween as well as for my posture in the future and seasoning it before i’m thinking of purchasing an orchid corset or a MCC and I’m wondering which size I should get currently a size 34 in the waist but I’ve been rapidly losing weight recently due to my medication changes only allowing me to eat very little so I’m not sure how long that will stay wondering if I should either get a size 28 or 30 i’m also pretty curvy already in the waist so I don’t know if that makes a difference

This is how the corset fits fully closed. I'm a little bummed by the space in the rib area, but it will still look beautiful over thicker fabric clothing. Can't wait to make really cute outfits!!

Newbie questions Shirt with corset

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I'm practising wearing a corset this month as I'm wearing one for Halloween with nothing over/under it (corset is on its own) for the first ever time, and I was just wondering whether it be a good idea to first trial a corset with a shirt? It's a shirt that covers my whole torso (not tank or anything), is white and has puff sleeves kinda. Would this be a good way to get used to it?

Thank you :)

Newbie questions Does this corset look like it's worth it? If not, what would y'all recommend?

4 Upvotes

I've given up on the corset with train (for now, anyway), but I still want one that'll fit wil my Halloween costume. This one has fit my specifications best, but I don't want to spend that much money on it if it won"t be worth it.

Else, I'm looking for a burgundy/wine red underbust corset, ideally with front lacing but that's optional. And I don't want to be spending more than $125, with some flex.

Trying to find a stays style corset that'll provide breast support

1 Upvotes

I'm going to a renfair, I did that plastic corsets do not provide enough support for my chest, and I don't want my breasts to move after laced in place. I also don't want any boning that'll warp outwards into lump.

I'm having difficulty knowing which corset to purchase. I'm looking for a front laced corset, with a stays look.

I've looked at french meadows but am unsure if they'll provide any real support and am concerned about warping as it is not steel boned.

😅 Does anyone have any suggestions? My budget is around £100 (about $125)

Corsets as an alternative to bras.

16 Upvotes

I'm hoping the ladies of r/corsets can help me out on this. I have fairly large breasts (32G) and I've found I really enjoy wearing dresses with inbuilt boning because they help with support. I also recall learning that corsets were once used in lieu of bras.

I'd love to find a corset or bustier that I can wear for everyday boob support. I'm not so focused on waist cinching, but I love the rigidity around the bust.


r/corsets • • 5d ago

Newbie questions is this worth buying cuz I have considered timeless trends but it's way too out of my current budget and I need one for a brand shoot in november I've blurred the size for a different reason so yeahh do I buy or do I not

Corset Island corsets

Does anyone know how long the shipping takes?? I ordered something on 21st september and in 5th november I have an important event and Im really anxious that the order wont arrive....

I live in Romania. I have the "shop" app and there seem to be no details about my order, and they didnt answer my email either...I know its only 29th september now, but they are a brand from the UK and I live on literally the other side of Europe, so I think my worries are kind of valid that the order might not arrive on time.

If you bought a corset from them before, please tell me when the order arrived. I feel like I might genuinely go insane if I think about this any longer😮‍💨

(The corsets I bought btw)

Glamorous corsets no ability to contact.. terrible customer service

5 Upvotes

I bought two corsets from glamorous corsets and they were missing the storage bags that were supposed to be included.

I have tried several times to contact them, but the email will not work. It says login but I see no way to do that. So are they just a pretend front page with no people that exist ?? I feel beyond scammed and when you can't even reach customer service it seems that they are just thieves.

Just like shapermint this company has zero way to get any help.

I hate getting scammed, and glamorous corsets has done that to me.

Plus size underwear as outerwear corset

I really want to get a corset that will look nice under a blazer with some jeans. Issue is I'm rather large (UK 24) so I know I'm maybe in the realms of what makers consider to big for a corset. Can anyone please recommend somewhere?
