Not quite like the photo.

I don't love this item. I had ordered it for a costume that I needed to go trick or treating with my son and it is different from the image in all the ways that I needed it to be the same. The shoulder straps are so much thinner than the picture. They are almost the width of a tank top strap and they slide off of my shoulder with every movement. It is a lighter brown than pictured as well (even lighter than my picture shows since I took it in the dark). The cord for lacing the whole thing is…

Pros
  • Can elevate your look and take your outfit from drab to fab
Cons
  • The corset may not be suitable for those with certain cultural or religious beliefs

I like this! Its pretty good quality

I like this! Its pretty good quality, its nice and firm and I like the material. Perfect for my outfit. One star off for the silly shoulders however, they are too big even for an off-shoulder look, but easily remedied if youre handy with alterations.The reviews scared me I thought I bought the wrong size. Perhaps the larger sizes are faulty but my measurements are waist 28" chest 36" and the M fit perfectly. Its a corset it will have 0 stretch, measure your waist at the smallest point…

Pros
  • Looks fabulous paired with jeans or trousers
Cons
  • The corset may be too tight for some people's comfort level

Buyer beware in my review

This thing ran so small I almost couldn’t even get into it. No huge deal as I was just looking for a Halloween costume and another seller had something better but this one claims to have never have been returned even after revain verified it being returned and I got an email that they are charging me for it anyway…pending status but be aware of my "shady” experience, so far. I never have problems w/revain sellers

Pros
  • Unique design is sure to spark conversation
Cons
  • The corset may cause discomfort or embarrassment if it shifts or slips out of place

Weird fit, returned item

The fit was very strange, as others said the straps were weirdly long and would flop down, and there is no way to adjust this without stitching them on differently, I had no interest in taking the time for this.It was very loose on me as well. I don't remember what size I purchased, but it fit me completely sinched as tight as the strings would go> about 2 sizes too big. It was almost the right fit in the bust though. I think I needed 1 to 2 sizes smaller and then it would have fit like a…

Pros
  • Allows for a better range of movement than traditional corsets
Cons
  • The corset may not be suitable for those with skin allergies or sensitivities

Runs Small!: my feedback

This is a well made corset but just so you know it DOES RUN SMALL even when following the specific measurements listed. I am 5’5 113 Ib and normally wear size small shirts. I ordered a medium due to the measurements and it was still to small. I do have mismatched measurements though. I have a large bust (32DDD) and no hips so even though it has lacing it did not fit right. I went ahead and ordered the large and crossing fingers! This is such a nice corset that I’m hoping that it works with the…

Pros
  • Affordable and great value for the price
Cons
  • The corset may cause friction or irritation against certain fabrics or materials

Fits true to size chart!

Better quality than expected, and fits great.Was skeptical on the fit because my short and my measurements are all over the place.For reference, I'm 4'11", and 40"-32"-38"According to the chart, I wanted to get an XL but only XXL was available.That being said, the XXL fits great, but I am laced in all the way in the back, and if I had the room I could even do up the waist and hip tighter, and if I lose any weight this would definitely be too large on me.So I wish I could have gotten the XL…

Pros
  • Smooths and shapes the upper body
Cons
  • The corset may not be adjustable enough to fit different body shapes or sizes

Great for LARPing with some modification

Overall good product. It's best to go one size up if you on on the top edge of a size because the straps will fall off your shoulders if you have the lacing too loose. As for covering the zipper, it comes with a small leather thong, I used the elastic hide it. Cut it from the thong and tie it in a loop vertically so it covers the front of the zipper and then loops around on the side of the zipper on your body.It is also much easier to do up the zipper if you lace the top first some, zip, then…

Pros
  • Feels comfortable and secure while wearing
Cons
  • The corset may not be appropriate for all body types or sizes, especially those with larger busts or hips

Very comfy for a corset, flattering fit, adjustable.

I actually didn't expect much because I don't have much luck with corsets online but I absolutely loved this corset. It was comfy, it has some give to it which was great because I had to work in my costume. It is a little revealing in the front but if that's what you are looking for it's very flattering and the front ties can be adjusted to suit whatever size chest you are. I put a bandeau top underneath and it looked great too. I'm 5'5" and 125 lbs and I got a small and it was the tiniest bit…

Pros
  • A great gift option for the fashionable woman
Cons
  • The corset may not be suitable for those who are pregnant or breastfeeding

Sexy and flattering but small, order up on size

I'm 4'11" 150 lbs and wear a 36H. I bought a XXL per reviews. I wish there was a XXXL as my chest was hanging out quite a bit. I was going to a rock concert though so didn't mind that much. I turned many heads that night! I felt sexy but exposed. It's a good quality corset though and very flattering. First time I've ever gotten away with no bra and still felt supported. Hope this helps others choose the right size. Overall was very happy with this purchase.PS - the back has a piece of fabric…

Pros
  • Adds a touch of elegance to any outfit
Cons
  • The corset may restrict movement, making it difficult to perform certain tasks or activities

Good quality but weird sizing

I used this corset for a cosplay of my Dungeons and Dragons character to wear to the renaissance festival.I'm 5'2, about 140 lbs, and very flat chested (definitely a pear shape), so I ordered a size large as I saw the item tends to run smaller than listed in the description. Even ordering a size a bit bigger than I usually would, I had to let out quite a bit in the back for it to fit comfortably. Like a lot of other reviewers, I also hate that the shoulder straps aren't adjustable. I've been…

Pros
  • Clothing
Cons
  • It may be difficult to get in and out of the corset without assistance

I like it! best in my review

I really like this! I haven't actually worn it yet but I tried it on and fit very nicely, was comfortable, and I liked the look.I normally wear a 32 inch pants (worn at the level of the tops of my hip bones not my true waist) so I ordered the XXL and it fits very nicely. If I wanted to lace it up tight I'm not sure I would have had room to really crank it down but since I just want it snug but not tight it is a nice fit with room to tighten it up a bit more if needed but not an overly large gap

Pros
  • Perfect for those who love to experiment with fashion
Cons
  • The corset may cause discomfort or pain when sleeping or lying down

Beautiful, but runs VERY SMALL

The texture is more like suede than leather, but it is really soft and beautiful. The color shown is accurate.My only problem is the size. I am 5'5" and 145 lb. I bought XL but I have to open up the back about 4 or 5 inches, just to be able to zip it up in front. On the size chart, XL should fit these measurements:bust: 38-40 / D-DDhips: 39-41waist: 30-32Um. no. Not even close.I'll make it work for Halloween, but I'm disappointed in the misleading size info.

Pros
  • Corset lacing allows for a customizable fit
Cons
  • The corset may cause back pain or discomfort if worn for extended periods

I could wait to try this on as soon as I received it. It looked much better than I expected it, especially for the price. There is a hint of a glare on the picture that made me think the material was a bit rubbery, however, when I opened the package I was so happy to see it does not have a glare at all. The material is a really nice suede that feels like real leather. The color is a rich light brown very close to what it looks like in the picture and it's beautiful. When I put it on it fit like

Pros
  • Helps to alleviate back pain
Cons
  • The corset may cause visible bulges or indentations in certain fabrics or materials

This was better than expected but I do have to comment on .

This was better than expected but I do have to comment on the lack of adjustable shoulder straps. They are way to big on me and I'm going to have to find a way to adjust them myself so I can wear it. (Picture it fitted across the stomach and chest but hanging loose at the top.) It works well for what it was purchased for with a few minor adjustments. I also like that it's not as much of a wetlook as I was afraid it was going to be. I absolutely love this item though!

Pros
  • Lingerie, Sleep & Lounge
Cons
  • It may be difficult to breathe properly while wearing the corset

5 stars after modifications

I give this 5 stars so long as you have a sewing machine on hand and don’t mind making some updates.1st, remove the zipper! Then sew those seams back together2nd, remove the modesty flap in the back so that your under shirt will show through the laces and not a dumb flap of fabric3rd, change out the laces. I used deertan lace for the front (which is mainly decorative) and some sturdy cording for the back.4th, fix the placement of the shoulder straps in the back as they are way too far…

Pros
  • Can be worn over or under clothing
Cons
  • The corset may be difficult to purchase online without trying it on first

My corset arrived on time and is true to color. The size is a bit small, which is to be expected in corsets, but I wish there was less of a gap in the laces in the back. I also received a matching leather thong that I do not need since I plan to use it for a halloween costume over a green dress! The straps are slightly too big but I plan to fix that with a little pinning or sewing. Over all it is a good product and I had no problems with the seller. Would recommend

Pros
  • Creates an attractive hourglass figure
Cons
  • The corset may not be suitable for summer or warm weather, as it can be too hot to wear

For the Renaissance Fest

For the most part the corset fit as expected. I've ordered from these people in the past and have had no issues.But I ordered the corset as part of a costume for the renaissance festival, I decided to dress as a huntress this year. And it really did it's job. It held up through the heat and the rain.The corset came in less than a week, ordered it Monday and I received it that Friday. Wore it Saturday. My only issue was the straps were huge. So I ended up staying up late sewing them to make them

Pros
  • Offers a vintage, classic look
Cons
  • The corset may cause discomfort or pain when sitting or bending over

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A little bigger than expected

I bought this for a pirate Halloween costume. I typically would’ve bought a medium but I followed the sizing guidelines and got a large and it was a little too big. I would’ve sent it back for a medium but didn’t have time before our party. Otherwise, great quality and definitely works as a corset. I had trouble with it riding up and the straps falling off my shoulders but again I think that may be due to the size.

Pros
  • Provides warmth during colder months
Cons
  • The corset may be difficult to find in stores, as it is a niche fashion item

Fast shipping, go up a size

This is a really nice corset. I read the reviews about it running small, which is true. I am normally a medium but since it runs small and I was wearing it over something, I ended up buying an extra large and it was perfect. Easier to go up a size and tighten it then to buy under. The only bad thing is the shoulders are not adjustable. More comfortable then I thought it would be

Pros
  • Provides a flattering shape to the wearer
Cons
  • The corset may cause discomfort or pain during physical activity or exercise

It's great quality though

I'm leaving this review because I read a ton of them before deciding on which size to order. I went with a Medium. I'm 5'4", 32DD, 126lbs (size 4 dress) and it was TIGHT. It fit though, and I was not uncomfortable - unless I sat down. The arm straps are unusually big though. I had to sew them & add new rivets for them to even stay up. If I had to order it again, I may have gone with a large just for a little more space. It's great quality though, and it looked wonderful with my Ren Faire…

Pros
  • Helps disguise problem areas
Cons
  • The corset may not provide enough support for those with larger busts
