PROS: I have purchased both the long, underbust in both nude mesh and black mesh as well as a longwhite cotton underbust one too—that’s how solid these are! I didn’t tight-lace it in the pic because you’re supposed to “Season” a new corset to your particular body shape by wearing it for an hour a day for a week or so prior to tight-lacing it so as to not warp the metal in the front. It’s a dunce feel but it’s definitely NOT for curvy people. I do think it’s similar to Libra models so any guys or bodies that have similar proportions of chest/hip to waist may get more out of it. It is surprisingly fantastic quality! Thee steel bones are sturdy and yet comfy. This is more of a winter/fall corset than a summer corset. It’ll be toasty. It took 1-2mos for the black mesh one to arrive, but this long white cotton as well as the nude mesh arrived in just 2 days! These are ok for the price. You could keep looking too. I may return this but not the others. You’ll roast if you’re thinking about this for under a wedding gown.
**Please know it came laced All Wrong!
CONS: The black one came with matching underwear but the nude and white didn’t have any extras.
FYI: this corset comes laced like shoe laces and NOT how corsets are meant to lace in ANY away. OncI re-laced it in the “bunny ear” method it is off by one hole at the waistline because there are 12 holes vs 10 or 14 which throws off the lacing pattern. This bugs me. I suggest looking up how to correctly lace a 10 hole corset, and doing the bunny ears at the waistline one 1side and up a hole on the other (best I could figure out).
Lastly, this is NOT an hour-glass, wasp waist type of corset. It’ll deliver some cinching and hiding the moved lower weight but the cotton is rather thick so if you’ve gone down 1-2”, you’ll also add 1” back with the bulk of this corset. It’s a hugger vs a waist trainer IMO and I’m a novice. It won’t tight lace down any further. So, there you have it. I’ll add a final comparison pic of it vs the mesh which really were able to tighten vs this one having less flexibility but the torso it rather long which can be great in my case, if you’re shorter than 5’6”, or short waisted, you’ll likely not be able to sit or bend or drive lol. No fun. Also, the company’s tag listed a website but it didn’t exist.
Tl;Dr: came laced wrong, not much flex, but long enough to cover escapee stomach excess ideally for long-waisted / tall ppl. I have a 32” waist, 32” under bust and 37” high hip, a 28 vs a 26 would be a better fit for me, but this was close just not at all curvy / flexible enough for my body shape.
Either way, this corset easily gets 3.5 Stars! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ + 1/2 💫
