I found a few sites that have a great collection but I want to know what are some things before buying one?

I.E.;

size, shape, fabrics, etc.

I also want to know what they are mainly used for. I know they look hot as h**l on a girl before she does the do but i'm wondering if it helps with a diet or something.

Thanks!

  1. You could try one of these sites...

    http://www.fairygothmother.co.uk/

    http://www.absolutecorsets.com/

    http://www.corsetconnection.com/

    They have lots of info on there too I think. They do look beautiful :)  


  2. have a look at the vollers site. They specialise in corsets and II think they have some good info on their site.

  3. 1) Understand your audience.  I figure you will not be the one wearing it, so talk it over with the person who will be the object of your affection.

    2) Know what you want.  Some people want lingerie for a fun evening, some want long-term waist training, some are between the two.  Some want an underbust corset (doesn't cover the b***s), some want overbust.  The average waist reduction is about 4".  Larger women get more waist reduction, those that start thin will have less.  Take it slow - you don't want to scare her off for one night of pleasure, leaving the corset to gather dust in the back of a closet.

    3) Shop around.  

    www.staylace.com is an excellent resource.

    Fredricks of Hollywood is a good place for the "lingerie" corset, but their merchandise isn't made for long term wearing.  

    http://www.corsetted.com/shop.shtml has a list of many other made-to-order corsettierres.  Their fabrics are more likely to be cotton and other durable, breathable materials.

    Does it help with a diet?  Yes.  While wearing a corset, a lady can not eat as much; the constriction reduces stomach capacity, and leads to a "full" feeling sooner.
