A beautiful corset begins with understanding your shape and the fit you have in mind. If you are ordering a made-to-measure corset, this guide explains the difference between your natural measurements and your desired corset measurements, plus what to share about your fit preferences.
What is the difference between standard sizing and made-to-measure?
Standard sizing follows a predefined set of measurements. Made-to-measure uses your individual measurements as the starting point for your corset. Your waist measurement is important, but it is not the whole picture: proportions and torso length also help describe your shape.
What are natural measurements?
Your natural measurements are taken without a corset. They describe your body as it is, rather than the shape or waist size you would like your corset to create. Keep these separate from any requested measurements of the finished corset.
What does “desired corset waist, fully closed” mean?
This refers to the waist measurement you want the corset itself to have when its back edges are fully closed. It is not your natural waist measurement, and it does not mean you must lace the corset fully closed when you first wear it.
For example, a natural waist of 30 inches and a desired fully closed corset waist of 26 inches describe two different things: your body measurement and the requested corset measurement. This example explains the terminology only; it is not a recommended reduction.
How should I choose my desired corset waist?
Do not choose a measurement simply because it sounds like an ideal clothing size. Consider your experience with corsets, your fit preferences, and the intended design. If you are unsure, ask Corsettery for sizing guidance before choosing a desired corset waist.
Which measurements should I provide?
Follow the measurement fields and the illustrated guide provided with your order. The measurements needed can differ by corset style, so avoid substituting measurements from another garment or a general clothing size chart. Include the unit of measurement wherever it is requested.
Can I use measurements from a corset I already own?
A favorite corset can be a useful reference for discussing what you like, but its measurements are not a substitute for your natural body measurements. If you share details of an existing corset, label them clearly as garment measurements and explain what you would like to keep or change about the fit.
What if I am ordering more than one corset?
Provide a separate set of measurements for each corset where needed, and identify the corresponding style or product. This is especially important when the corsets are for different people or when you want different fit preferences for each design.
What should I write in “Tell us about your perfect fit”?
Use this space to describe the silhouette you love, how you plan to style your corset, or any fit difficulties you have experienced with standard sizing. For a special occasion, you can also mention the occasion and date so you can discuss timing with us before relying on a delivery deadline.
For example: “I am looking for a defined waist and plan to wear this corset over a blouse. Standard styles often feel too long when I sit down.” A specific description helps communicate your preferences without replacing the measurements.
What if I am unsure about a measurement?
Ask before guessing. Tell us which measurement you are unsure about and refer to the illustrated guide so we can discuss the same measurement points. Accurate information is a better starting point than choosing a number you are not confident about.
Does made-to-measure mean every design can be changed?
Individual measurements and design customization are not the same thing. If you would like a different neckline, length, fabric, or other design detail, ask whether that change is available for the specific corset before ordering.
Your shape, your preferences
Measurements tell us about your proportions. Your notes tell us what you are looking for. Together, they provide a thoughtful starting point for a corset chosen around you.
