Sizing
How to fit yourself.
The key to a comfortable corset is picking the correct size. If you come to one of our events, we can do the fitting for you, but if you cannot make it following these instructions. If you are confused about anything, we are only an email or facebook post away.
The sizing chart below is for un-corseted measurements and is different from bra measurements. Remember that a corset will constrict your bust and waist. Corsets are designed for a waist‐reduction between 2 to 4 inches. If in doubt for correct size, use your bust or waist measurement (which ever is larger) as corsets will fit a variety of size due to the lacing at the back.
To Measure:
Bust/Chest
Measure around the shoulder blades, under the armpits and over the fullest part of the bust or chest.
Waist
Find your natural waistline and measure.
Hip
Measure the fullest part of the hip (usually about 7-9 inches below the waist)
