Review on Chic And Sleek: Black Satin Overbust Corset With Strong Boning And Lace-Up Detail - Available In White And Red by Rebecca Inman

This is a very well-made, affordable corset. This isn’t what you find in the back aisle of Spencer’s or in the costume section of your local sex shop. This is a solidly-made, lace-up boned corset. It can be used not only as lingerie but as outwear. I would recommend this for beginners as it comes laced and is easily adjustable.I purchased the corset a few days ago in anticipation of Halloween, to dress up as Ariel from The Little Mermaid in her Kiss the Girl dress. I was not disappointed. As I mentioned, this is a quality item and it added a level of realness to my costume that the official Disney packages you can get on Revain or at Party City do not have. The corset is matte black, meaning it doesn’t have that shiny look that fake leather can have. The boning is subtle but still visible.My only warning to you is that if you decide to order this, be totally honest with yourself about your size. This corset, because it is boned, does not offer you any stretch. The laces in the back can be loosened some but don’t bet on that to give you more than an inch or two. If you do decide to loosen the laces, there is a black modesty panel that will cover the space so that your skin isn’t showing through the laces.I’m 5’ 8”, I weigh 225 pounds, I wear a size 16-18 in jeans, I wear a 38-40 D/DD bra size depending on the brand, and I have a long waist with an hourglass/pear shape and I ordered the corset in 5XL. While it does fit me, I would’ve done better to have ordered it in a 7XL, which I only didn’t do because I felt self-conscious about ordering something labeled 7XL.When putting on the corset, remember that this is an overbust style. If you start to put it on under your breasts, like how a waist trainer is worn, it is not going to fit you, even if you ordered the correct size.
