Any corset wearers/corset curious MNetters?

[000YourMum000]

I promise I don’t work for them, but Corset Story currently have a 4 for the price of 1 deal on corsets! I’ve never had one, but just ordered 4 of them!
Anyone routinely wear these? Two of the ones I’ve chosen are outerwear, shirt style. I’m intrigued!

Weird to order four of something you've never worn before.

They don't look much different to the ones on amazon / Ali express

And way over pricrd

@JaneJeffer hardly. I can send them back. Or have you never done online shopping?

@dfendyr Really? Didn’t seem expensive to me. £20 each.

Are they steel or plastic boned?

corset curious?
Is this a thing?

@RelentlessForwardProgress Haha no? I don’t think so anyway. Before I’m accused of being some kind of weird fetishist, fair enough I could have worded it better, but I promise I’m just a boring woman who saw a special offer.

But it's not 20 each is it? It's 80 for 4.

You cannot buy 1 for 20

4 for 1 isn't a deal that screams quality. It will be rebranded stock similar to chineese sellers on ebay. Note they have no contact phone number so its most likely coming from China, they also dont do partial returns on the 4 for 1 offer.

I used to wear corsets in my goth days, they are usually sold by waist measurement not dress size for 'proper' corsets, not that there is anything wrong with a fashion one but the price is quite high given they can apparently afford to give 4 for 1 deals.

Unless you are a very standard size they will not be comfortable for extended wear, nor will they last. The old goth in me still has a few and my cheapest was around £140. That fits my like a glove and looks brand new despite being more than 10 years old.

I will say I once took a punt on an ebay underbust corset and it was lovely, all steel boned too unlike a lot that say they are but just have a steel front plate and plastic bones for the rest.

@dfendyr Yes I do understand this.

@LivingDeadGirlUK Fingers crossed then :) it’s only for fun.

Once upon a time I wanted to get one from Fairy Goth Mother but never got round to it.

I'd like to start waist training, but will definitely need a bespoke corset because my hips are massive.

I have some from there and they're lovely, steel boned, beautiful fabric and well made :)

Also they only took about 4 days to get to me and I ordered by waist measurements for the ones I chose

Yay 😀 - thanks for commenting. There were a very negative lot yesterday!

I have ordered from them several times. The quality is good but unfortunately I found it impossible to do the corsets up properly on my own. I ended up sending them back. I'll stick to my usuals basques which are just fine
