Review on Flaunt Your Sassy Side With Charmian'S Floral Embroidery Gothic Corset And Lace Skirt Combo For Women by Paula Baker

I bought this for a costume. First, it looks off white in the photo but was pure white when I got it. Which did not suit the look I was going for. I did read that the corset had no bones, but thought I'd give it a try anyway since it was just for one night. Bad idea. It fits slouchy, just as you see in the photo and there is no amount of adjusting that will smooth this out.As for the fit, I read reviews carefully and ordered an XL, which was a correct fit. When I buy traditional (US sized) corsets, I wear a small. My measurements are 34FF bra size, 27.5" waist at the smallest point, 30" around the belly button. 36" hips. The extra large was the correct choice and fit my boobs waist and hips. However, when the ribbons on the side are sinched to fit, at 20% body fat, the ribbons were cutting into me. NOT attractive.The mesh on this corset looks soft in the photo but is cheap and kind of stiff when looking in person. Bottom line, this looks so much prettier online. I tried it on a few times trying to make it work, then did not wear it. I will end up giving it away. A return wouldn't be worth the effort in my opinion.I give it 2 stars because I could see how someone might be very happy with it, depending on what level of detail is important to them. I'm pretty picky. I ended up investing a couple hundred dollars in a high quality corset and was so much happier.
