Where do you get your corsets? I'm planning to buy one but don't know where to look for ones that are good AND affordable
hi! corsets are one of those hobbies that has like a huge huge stacks of Official Opinions about it from various experts that you technically should read and internalize, BUT, because anatomy and use cases are so incredibly different from person to person, the actual “best corset” for you might be a “bad corset” according to the experts.
That disclaimer out of the way, the current best sources of up to date corset info are probably /r/Corsets (i hate reddit but this sub is usually chill) and Lucy’s Corsetry. reading the FAQs on both sites before you buy anything is a really good idea. both places are vocally pro-trans and pro-disability and pro-fat, three populations that intersect with corsetry a lot. the FAQs about “seasoning” corsets and how to take your measurements for a good fit are both really important.
All of this is good advice! I’m chiming in to say I’m one of the outliers who has had great luck with Orchard Corsets’ waist cinchers; they have a line that’s designed for plus size folks who also have short waists.
