To convert from other
systems, please see the conversion
charts. Q. How to read the size chart?
The
left hand column usually shows the
sizes available for ordering, for example, 32", 34", 36", etc. The
numbers represent the waist size of the corset when both side are
touching. The other
columns to the right show the approximate equivalents based on your
measurements and/or dress size. Q.
What if I'm in between sizes?
If
the size chart shows you're in between sizes, we recommend going with
the larger size. Q.
What is my Corset size?
We recommend 4" down for waist reduction. If you are an avid corset wearer and
know that you can reduce your waist by more than 4", please order the
appropriate restriction or feel free to email us with your body type, height,
and gender for a personal online consultation. There are certain styles that are
better for certain body types and we'd be happy to instruct you on this matter.
If you do not fit into this chart or are particularly hard to fit, we HIGHLY
recommend a custom corset, as there are no returns on any of corsets. Q. How to order a Custom size?
Please email your measurements. When
ordering a corset, please provide your natural waist size (D in the picture). We will determine the
size of the corset according to the measurements provided and the restrictive
properties of the model chosen. Corsets with cups are made size C cup. If you
don't fall within the sizing chart, or would like a cup size larger than C,
corsets can be made to your measurements for an additional 20% fee. After
reviewing your measurements, We will contact you if
custom work is needed. Work will not proceed until we've received your
confirmation email. Q.
