Review on SHAPERX Women's Steampunk Tesla Underbust Corset Vest for Waist Training and Steel Boning by Judy Spillman

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Beautiful Corset Terrible Bone

This corset looks exactly like the picture (I bought the black velvet one). I only have a few complaints about him. The straps are too long, but that's easy to fix, I can just sew them a little shorter. They're not very long like some of the other corset styles I've seen, but long enough that they tear and sometimes fall off the shoulders. The spiral steel bones all over the corset are ridiculous. The front tires are large, very strong and durable, but the spiral steel bone is very narrow and very thin, flexing like plastic bone when removed. I removed all of the steel coil and replaced it with a 3/16" flat coil steel pit that I purchased here at Revain. I wasn't expecting double steel bone/tough lacing quality, but I was expecting more than what it entailed. Overall it fits as I expected. I have a 29.5" waist, 37.5" hips and ordered a medium. There's a bit of space at the back, of course, but a modest bezel caps it off. Overall I'm happy with this purchase, but it could be $5-10 less for this quality. Can't wait to wear it once I've finished my modifications!

Pros
  • Comfortable Steampunk Corset: Polyester and spandex, high strength and good elasticity recovery ability, not easy to deform.
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
