Review on Floral Embroidered Gothic Corset With Lace Skirt - Sexy And Strapless For Charmian Women by Kim Thomas

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Runs pretty small, but otherwise good product

So this corset concerned me at first because the reviews seem to be a bit mixed.But someone said it's easy to get a return from the seller, so I decided to try. At the time of getting it, the corset was discounted to $50.99. I'm not sure if that price tag ever changes but keep that in mind when I talk about "It's good for the price".I'm admittedly not an expert in corsets, but this clearly isn't a /real/ corset. So someone who's an expert with corsets might not take as much of a shine to this product.Though I did. It doesn't have those spines I usually find in corsets in the front, which is good for ME as my rolls when I sit usually end up bending these things out of shape and they're highly uncomfortable for me. But again, an expert in corsets and wearing them might not see this as a positive.The material used seems well picked and well stitched together, I haven't found anything wrong with the details. I love the designs and I was pleasantly surprised at the padding in the boob area. Someone previously mentioned that this corset squishes their chest in like an unflattering sports bra. I don't find this to be true. Maybe loosen the corset string or get a bigger size? On that note, I'm a size 18, 3XL at most places. I have a 48in bust and 37in waist. I got the 6XL, and anything smaller would not have fit me. Keep that in mind when you order, you may need to get a size or two larger than you are. I was concerned about the peekaboo sides, but you can also adjust the stitching on those, so it's not super hard to adjust it to your fit and liking.Personally, I think this product was worth the purchase. That being said, I just got this today and tried it on, so if I feel a need to update my review later, I will. But as for now, it's a super pretty piece and well made.Though it's more of a costume piece than a /legit/ corset, if that makes sense? Most people will likely not really notice that difference, though.4/5 stars because of the sizing issue, and I feel the corset strings are a little flimsy and may start shredding later. But otherwise I love this thing, it's comfortable and easy to adjust and move in. It's really pretty and honestly, if the black/red one comes back in stock I'll certainly be getting one.Oh, and bonus: This showed up SUPER fast, Like, I ordered on April 1st and got it on the 3rd. So I can bet the seller ships fast.

Pros
  • The lace skirt adds a sense of softness and femininity to the outfit, creating a balance between the strong lines and bold details of the corset
Cons
  • The strapless design may make it difficult to find compatible jewelry
