Your corset size is going to be a little bit smaller than your dress size.
One of the most important measures you need to know is waist. Corset size in the UK is given on inches and usually the actual size you need for yourself is from 2 to 4 inches less than your actual waist measurement (so breathe normally!)
i.e a waist measurement of 28 inches would order a 24 or 26 inch corset depending on how tight you would feel comfortable wearing it. We would advise purchasing your corset at 4 inches smaller rather than two inches for the ultimate hour glass effect.
You must measure across the bust outline, with a soft bra on to get the correct measurement for your bust at its fullest point.
This is important for us to know if the corset you choose is the most appropriate for your shape. This is because some of our corsets are specifically designed for larger or smaller busts.
it´s important that you measure the narrowest point of your waist (and breathe normally, please!). When we say the narrowest point is smallest outline at your waist.. This is not necessarily where the pants/skirt ends or where your belly is..
This is important. You should measure the widest point at the hips outline. Not at the hips bones, but very slightly further down.
