Punk-Chic: Retro Goth Waist Cincher For Women - Faux Leather Corset Basque Bustier Review

I'm a little torn on the review here, because the corset is pretty cute and seems fairly well-made. But it is TINY. I have loads of corsets and am very familiar with sizing and measurements. Still, I read other reviews and looked over the size chart, before deciding to order a 2x. I am 5'5", 170lbs, 36DD, 33" waist. There was no way I could close this in the front without stretching it wide open in the back (much wider than the panel would cover). Sent it back and ordered the 3x. I'll…

Bought this corset for a costume; used it over a shorts unitard for an underwear fun run where our team dressed 'egyptian.'While this wasn't the easiest to run in, it did look good and held shape well, especially for a plus-sized girl like me.Eye-catching, looked classier (If one could say that a metallic gold corset is classy, lol) than the picture and the V-shaped g-string looked hilarious over my black short unitard.

The only thing I can figure is people like to wear this over more clothes but I am just wearing it over a thin knit shirt.The seams are sturdy, the boning comfortable and strong, I have this for a costume but I tend to think I'll be wearing it for more than that =)

The corset fits well for the most part. I’m very very thin so I wasn’t expecting to be able to lace it much tighter. However the real problem is the bust. One side (left) is perfect but the right side of the bust is uneven.causing a sort of "puckering”. I’m very flat chested so while one side fits the other is too big in an odd way. And I don’t think tightening will fix it.would return and get a replacement but I don’t want the same mistake. unsure of what to do.

Nice quality for the cost. Material is comfortable to wear and looks great. Very flattering. Fits true to size, if not a bit large. I usually wear a L-XL in tops, I have 36 DDD cup size, i ordered and XL and can wear it synched in tight.

At first I bought the xlarge and it was to small so I said I would go for the 2x which I'm sure would have fitted just right but my husband convinced me to get the 3x since there was an adjustable strap and I can adjust how I wanted n for once he was right lol omg I love it and for some reason the 3x came with the matching underwear as the 1x didnt I'm so in love I will come back with pictures as I am wearing this for my Birthday july 16 thanks thanks extremely happy customer

I wear a size 16w and my chest size is a 38/40 DD. I purchased a size 3x however I could have went down a size to hold my chest up a little more. This black bustier is definitely a good buy and I’d highly recommend it. It’s plus size/curvy friendly and made me look a tad bit slimmer.

I’m 34B-32C and I ordered size M. It’s too big for me, looks empty inside caps. I think S could fit much better. So I had to wear push up bra under.Quality is great! Just order right size!

It’s not stretchy, buttons are a little hard to put on. You def need someone to help tie it in the back. It made my Halloween costume that’s for sure!

I’m 5’2” with 34-29-34 measurements (if hubby did it correctly lol) - size chart puts me in a large.I bought a medium, should’ve gotten a small. Tried it on with no bra (I’m a 34C using measurements taken at Victoria’s Secret) - it’s cinched all the way closed and is still very roomy which makes me look flat chested.Side note: this is a fashion corset only and not suitable for true waist training (if that’s what you’re looking for) - meaning no steal boning and not real leather or thick layers…

Beware on sizing but if you read sizing charts you know what size to order. Other than that great value and exactly as described. Size wise I had to order 4/5 yes 4/5 sizes LARGER then my normal size to get a comfy/proper fit. A little shorter then what I would have prefered but still a great night out sexy top for what I needed and read enough of the reviews to know I had to up size so much to get the proper fit.

5’8 170 lbs. and ordered 2XL according to size chart. WAY too big even when laced as tight as possible. The clasp front is awkward and the ribbon in the back was just cheap and too long. Not like the picture. Lon story short you get what you pay for as this is cheap for a corset. Order a size smaller than the chart recommends if you have smaller bust. I’m a 36C for reference.

It for and served its purpose but the latches were super hard to get to connect and the tie up was just as hard more importantly it was as form fitting as my wife thought she didn’t like it at all but she wore it.

This item was a little on the large size. I liked the corset a lot, my only complaint is that I found it extremely difficult to buckle/button/hook. (whatever you call it). I would get one hooked and two would come unhooked. I had my boyfriend try to help me keep everything together so I could get it on and it still kept coming unhooked. Maybe it was because it was a little big for me? I don't know, it was a nice quality though.

This is so pretty. Well structured for the price. It was part of my Halloween costume and it set it off. People couldn't believe it was an amazon purchase. A must have! Will be adding more to my collection.

I purchased the 3x. I'm usually a 12-14 US size in shirts. It was a little big on in the chest area since I'm a 34C I definitely recommend you buy a size down if you're smaller in the chest area. I think a 2x would have fit me better.

It fits true to size around the middle, but you need to have a size DD bust to fit the top. I do not (not even close), so it didn't work for me. Other than that, I was pleasantly surprised at the quality. Excellent corset for the money. If it had been a better fit up-top I would likely have ordered several more.
