Corsets

We would like to point out that the following information is only valid for the size determination of "real" corsets. Whether your chosen article is a real lace corset, you will recognize the article name, which then also contains the indication "corset". If "corsage" is indicated in the item description, the following notes do not apply. Please order a corsage after your normal dress size - the above table will help you to choose the right size. Would you like to know why we separate "corset" and "corsage" and where is the difference?

To choose the right corset size, first measure your waist circumference at the narrowest point in inches. However, the corset circumference in the tightest lacing must be significantly lower than the body circumference. To determine the corset circumference, you subtract from the body circumference about 10 cm. These 10 cm are ideal for all clothing sizes up to EU size 42. For larger sizes or for even stronger lacing, a greater difference between body and corset circumference may be necessary (up to 15 cm). In most cases, the calculated corset circumference will be between two corset sizes. Please choose the smaller size. Due to the back lacing corsets offer enough width.

If you are still unsure about which size to choose, we are happy to help you out. Please use our message form for your request or send an email to info@black-impressions.de. Please also let us know your measurements and clothing size.
