Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know which size corset to order?

As a general sizing guide, corsets should be ordered 4-7 inches smaller than your natural waist, depending on what your purpose is for buying a steel boned corset. For instance, if your natural waist is 32” and you plan on waist training we recommend a 26” corset. But if you plan on using your corset for fashion purposes, back support, improving your posture or as part of a costume, the corset should be 3-5” smaller than your natural waist. So, for the same 32” natural waist you could order a 28” corset. As mentioned above this is a general guide, for accurate sizing we always recommend sending in all your measurements for a proper fit. Different corsets have different shapes and are suitable for different bodies.

There are four key measurements you need to choose the right corset size/style. To determine which size/style will work best for you please email us at [email protected] with your measurements and we will get back to you within 1-2 hours with the best recommendation for you. Here is what we need:

  1. A – Underbust: Measure right under your breasts.
  2. B – Natural Waist: Measure at the smallest part of your waist usually right above your belly button.
  3. C – High Hip: Measure around the iliac crest, this where you low rise jeans sit. Please do not measure around your butt, that’s too low.
  4. D – Torso: Start with the measuring tape at the underbust, sit in a chair, and measure to the hip crease (where your leg bends at the hip when seated). Do this at each hip and use the shorter measurement, if one side is shorter.
  5. Is your stomach area soft and squishy? Or more on the lean side?

What does it mean to “break in” / “season” a corset?

Seasoning/breaking-in your corset simply means wearing it in. If you invest some time and a little bit of patience you will allow the corset to mold to your body. By seasoning the fabric, laces, and steel bones of your corset it will not only last longer, but feel more comfortable and provide better results. If you tightly lace a brand new corset and wear it all day long you will not be comfortable and the true experience of wearing a seasoned corset is no comparison.

How do I “break in” / “season” my new corset?

When you receive your new corset it will be stiff.  Start out by wearing your corset at home every day for 1-2 hours for the next two weeks. Do not over-tighten the corset. This will allow the corset to mold to your body and take its shape. After the seasoning process, your corset will be more comfortable and ready for daily wear.
