Tips and Techniques for Hourglass and Fashion Fit Corsets

Corsets can enhance your silhouette and add a touch of glamour to any outfit, but they can also be tricky to lace and wear. Whether you're a seasoned corset wearer or just starting out, these tips will help you achieve a comfortable, flattering fit.

Busk Closure (Hourglass Corsets)
  • Take note of the lacing pattern when you receive your corset. It will be tied using "rabbit ears" with a long loop in the center for tying in the back.
  • Loosen the back ties about five to eight inches to make it easier to put on and take off.
  • Start hooking up the front from the center, being careful not to break the busk if you haven't loosened the ties enough.
  • Use the "rabbit ears" lacing technique, pulling from the bottom up and then from the top down to tighten the corset.
  • Adjust your breasts to avoid flattening them and finish tightening the corset to a comfortable fit.
  • Start with a slightly loose corset and gradually tighten over time as it molds to your body. Never lace too tightly, causing discomfort or damage to the corset.
  • Always loosen the lacing before taking off the corset and store it by rolling it inside out or hanging it over a hanger.
Zipper Closure (Fashion Fit Corsets)
  • Take note of the lacing pattern when you receive your corset. It will be tied using "rabbit ears" with a long loop in the center for tying in the back.
  • Loosen the back ties about five to eight inches to make it easier to put on and take off.
  • Carefully zip up the front, being mindful of your skin to avoid zipping yourself.
  • Use the "rabbit ears" lacing technique, pulling from the bottom up and then from the top down to tighten the corset.
  • Adjust your breasts to avoid flattening them and finish tightening the corset to a comfortable fit.
  • Start with a slightly loose corset and gradually tighten over time as it molds to your body. Never lace too tightly, causing discomfort or damage to the corset.
  • Always loosen the lacing before taking off the corset and store it by rolling it inside out or hanging it over a hanger.

By following these tips, you'll be able to wear your corset with confidence and comfort. Whether you're looking for a classic hourglass silhouette or a fashion-forward fashion fit, these techniques will help you achieve the perfect fit for your body. So, get ready to cinch in your waist and turn heads with your stunning corset style!
