Your measurements

Every corset order is personally reviewed by our corsetière Steph. Submit your measurements below and we’ll confirm everything fits beautifully before we begin.

You can enter measurements in inches or centimetres.

Measure around your bra band, keeping the tape level at the back.
Measure where you go in the most at the sides, usually below your lowest rib. If not obvious, bend from side to side and measure at the level you’re bending from.
Measure 4″/10cm below where you measured your waist — mid-section of your hips, below the top of the hip bones but above your main outward buttocks curve.
Measure around the fullest part of your buttocks curve — this is usually at the same level as your pubic bone or top of thigh.
Measure while wearing a bra with defined cups wherever possible. Measure level at nipple height, keeping the tape level at the back.
Enter your usual cup size in most bras.
This helps us with corset length.
Helps Steph check best design, fabric, compression and finish.

Once your order is placed, Steph will review your measurements and confirm receipt before your corset goes into production. You may be contacted if we have any questions about your fit.

Description

Our most popular and versatile under bust corset, the Underbust Victorian is now available in a shortened length option to make it easier for those with shorter torsos! 

This really is the 'Dinner & Drive Corset' - meaning you can more comfortably eat dinner and also drive more easily.    *Corset wearers will understand how driving in a long line corset in a low seated car can be quite challenging*

Our corset fitter can assess which size will fit you best, please fill out the easy to follow Measurements Form if you'd like a size recommendation.

To make sure we are going to make you the best fitting corset for your needs we will contact you as soon as you order to check your measurements and answer any questions you have.

Please check the size guide and as a general rule, choose a size that is about 4" SMALLER than your natural waist measurement.

Details on the corset:

  • available custom sized to your measurements if you fall outside of our standard size range
  • usually gives a higher compression at the waist due to its shortened length, in the 4-5" range depending on body type.
  • Steel boned
  • Quality and hard wearing aston brocade outer & cotton drill/twill lining
  • Standard sizes in this design do not include a back modesty panel, custom sizes include one
