The term "love handle" is a cute way of describing that bothersome bit of your body that hangs above your hips and just under your waist.

Even a finely tailored suit can look ill-fitting with bulging flesh in the wrong places.\n\nWhether you are petite or plus size, having love handles is a common nuisance. This article will delve into how to incorporate shapewears into your lifestyle changes to remove those love handles. Shapewear is an excellent undergarment to help with this for all body types. Let’s break down what love handles are and how to correct love handles using shapewear.\n<h5>What Are Love Handles?</h5>\n<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://damidols.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Love-Handles-A-complete-Guide.jpg" alt="Love-Handles-A-complete-Guide" width="1000" height="625"></p>\nLove handles, flanks, derriere, those protruding bits above your hips. This is a bothersome part of the body. It often seems unresponsive to diet (I know some slim women who battle love handles), and exercise hardly alters them as they aren\'t part of your major (or everyday use) muscle groups; hence you can\'t tone them up quickly.\n\nMore often than not, fitness, diet, and a lack of quality sleep are some of the main reasons for excess fat around the hip region; other factors may trigger them to be more evident.\n<h5>What causes love handles?</h5>\nAs stated earlier, love handles are caused by fat accumulation in the area. When you ingest too many calories and don\'t burn as many calories as you consume, fat accumulates on your midsection and hips.\n\nThis is because your hips and belly are the first and last sites where fat deposits form and the last place they leave.\n\nIn truth, Women face this challenge more than men due to their higher risk of leptin resistance due to not eating the correct type of foods. Leptin is a hormone that causes the brain to alert you when you should stop eating and when your body has taken in enough calories.\n\nA variety of factors causes love handles. These love handles are often persistent and challenging to get rid of or diminish.\n\nOne of the most common reasons for this status is a lack of a balanced diet, adequate sleep, and regular exercise.\n\nAlthough fat deposits can form anywhere on the body, several circumstances that might cause fat to appear more prominently on the hips/love handles, lower back, and abdominal areas, including:\n-Age.\n-Lack of sleep.\n-Hormonal Imbalances\n-Medications.\n-High far, Sugar or Calories -Consumption.\n-A medical condition causing slow metabolism.\n-Lack of physical activity.\n\nWhile the issue is primarily cosmetic — as in, you do not love how they look — love handles can also indicate underlying risk factors for illnesses like type 2 diabetes, obesity, and heart disease.\n<h5>How to Correct Love Handles – The Shapewear Path.&nbsp;</h5>\nTo get rid of love handles, there are surgical and non-surgical paths to correcting it.\n\nThe non-surgical options for love handle fat removal include fat dissolving injections called kybella (belkyra) or cryolipolysis (fat freezing) called cool sculpting.&nbsp;\n\nThe Surgical removal is performed by Liposuction with either the body jet or <a style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;" href="https://www.healthline.com/health/cosmetic-surgery/vaser-liposuction" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Vaser liposuction</a> systems. (<a style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;" href="https://damidols.com/liposuction-how-shapewear-can-help-you-heal-faster/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">View our article on Liposuction to see how incorporating shapewear can help you get excellent results there too</a>).&nbsp;\n\nHaving stated that, there is a third path that has a less painful, traumatic, complicated yet instantaneous effect of reducing love handles, and that’s the shapewear path.&nbsp;\n\nShapewear is a kind of underwear that you can wear beneath your clothes to change the direction of your body fat and make you appear slimmer. The term shapewear is sometimes used interchangeably with waist trainers.&nbsp;\n\nHowever, a <a style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;" href="_wp_link_placeholder" data-wplink-edit="true">waist trainer</a> is targeted at the waistline or abdominal section against the shapewear, which comprises all garments that contribute or alter its wearer\'s silhouette. It can assist in smoothing out your curves and give your stomach a more proportional look to the rest of your body.&nbsp;\n\nFurther, the shapewear has the added benefit of concealing your love handles while also reduces the look of excess fat in susceptible areas.&nbsp;\n<h5><strong>Our Shapewear Rules for Instantly Concealing Love Handles</strong>&nbsp;</h5>\nSimply put, your love handles are a layer of flesh and fat over bone. There is only one way to hide them – using shapewear instantly. Compress them and wrap them in strong shapewear fabric! To make this transformation long-term, ensure to burn more calories daily than you consume.&nbsp;\n\nAccording to a study on abdominal and flank fat, exercises focused on only the abdomen may not be enough to see results on love handles. In addition to targeting the abdominal muscles, it’s also essential to focus on full-body exercises, core building and strengthening exercises regularly, and avoid a sedentary lifestyle to see the best results.&nbsp;\n\nThese exercises combine both targeted ab exercises and other exercises — toning the back, hips, and legs — to maximize weight loss around the abdomen, flanks and/or love handles.&nbsp;\n\n<strong>Back to our instant solution.&nbsp;</strong>\n\nYou will need extra STRENGHT shapewear on your love handles to make a big difference. When shopping, select EXTRA FIRM control that will help to compact them up.&nbsp;\n\nGo for <a style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;" href="https://damidols.com/product-category/shapewear/thighs-legs/">full body shapewear</a>. You will need to have something that hides your lower hips, bottom and thighs too. If you wear knicker leg shapewear, you will get Visible Pant Line (VPL), no matter how well made and finely cut the shapewear is.&nbsp;\n\nIn addition, go for shapewear that is HIGH WAISTED if you don’t want the full-body type. The shapewear will firm and flatten your love handles. Let’s be honest; the flesh and fat need to have somewhere to go. If it slides UP, you will get flesh or fat spillage over the top of low waist shapewear.&nbsp;\n\nThis defeats the purpose and frustrates your desires. No one wants that! In this case, High waisted shapewear is the way to go.&nbsp;\n<h5>What to look for in a Shapewear that can control Love Handles?<strong>&nbsp;</strong></h5>\n<strong>Control Waist Trainers/Cinchers -</strong>\n\nControl trainers are one of the most efficient ways to conceal love handles and belly fat. They are designed to tighten your waist for more support and to smooth out your body symmetrically. They prevent extra fat from being pushed out and balance out the distribution, making it less noticeable.&nbsp;\n\nGood quality shapewear is designed to make you feel comfortable throughout the day, making them ideal for everyday tasks such as going to work or school.&nbsp;\n\n<strong>Control Pants/Control Camis -</strong>\n\nControl pants are briefs or knickers, and they are one of the most popular and dominant types of shapewear available. This is because they smooth out your hips, bum, and stomach without altering the appearance of your legs or upper torso.\n\nControl camis are designed to help reduce tummy fat, but they are also very effective at smoothing out the curved areas around your hips. They have the appearance of a tank top but are specifically designed to make you look slimmer and narrower.&nbsp;\n\nCamis are popular among women because they are the most comfortable to wear when compared to other styles. They conceal fat around your stomach region because it encases the upper torso.&nbsp;\n\n<strong>Body Shapers/ Suits</strong> -\n\nBody shapers are similar to control camis, although much firmer. They target all areas of your upper torso, including your hips, tummy, breasts, and sides. They are ideal for abdominal spills and back fat.\n\nThey assist in manipulating excess skin and fat in the lower back by distributing it both upward and sideways. This helps to stretch out the skin around your hips, making your love handles less visible.\n\nShapewear can be worn with a variety of outfits, including formal gowns and everyday casual wear. They can be firmer or lighter in control and come in a variety of styles.&nbsp;\n\n<strong>Pro tip</strong>: If you\'re wearing a fancy dress, we recommend a firmer bodysuit because it helps distribute fat better than lighter options. When dressing casually, the opposite is true.\n<h5>How to Choose the Best Shapewear for Love Handles?&nbsp;</h5>\n<strong>Size -</strong>\n\nChoosing the correct size of shapewear is key to improving the look of your overall body\'s silhouette, especially in tight-fitting clothes. Shapewear products usually show a sizing chart either online, through the manufacturer/supplier, or on the packaging.&nbsp;\n\nYour correct size will be determined by your waist size, body shape and length. Also, ensure that you pick the sizing according to your country’s sizing metrics. This is because you will find that some international products have different variations and numerals.&nbsp;\n\n<strong>Comfort</strong> -\n\nIf you intend to wear shapewear regularly, it is critical to select comfortable shapewear. Materials that are flexible and breathable will help you feel less irritated throughout the day, especially in hot weather environments. Some can even absorb moisture if you sweat a lot.&nbsp;\n\n<strong>Pro tip:</strong>&nbsp;If your upper body is more comprehensive, you may want to consider an open bust design, which allows for more flexibility and comfort.&nbsp;\n\n<strong>Material -</strong>\n\nThe material you choose will be determined by your previous experience wearing clothes. Some women prefer a firmer fabric, while others prefer a softer fabric.&nbsp;\n\nWhen it comes to reducing the appearance of excess body fat around your waist, spandex and elastane are the best materials to use.&nbsp;\n\nThey will guarantee that they will hug your body without stretching over time and provide firm control without sacrificing comfort.&nbsp;\n\n<strong>Amount of Constriction -</strong>&nbsp;\n\nThe amount of constriction will depend on your body type. Albeit, there are a few qualities you should pay attention to get the best results when trying to reduce the visibility of your love handles. If you are going for control pants or tights, make sure it goes high above the waist region, covering your belly button.&nbsp;\n\nThis allows excess fat and skin to be distributed more evenly throughout the area than pushed in one direction. You will also notice that this makes you appear narrower and slimmer while preventing roll down.&nbsp;\n\nOf course, if you want to wear a cami or a bodysuit, you will have no trouble doing so by default because they cover your entire upper torso.&nbsp;\n\n<strong>Adjustable Straps -</strong>&nbsp;\n\nAdjustable straps are a great feature to look for in a full-body shapewear garment, such as a control cami or body shaper. These can assist you in customizing the fit so that it is more tailored to you.&nbsp;\n\nAdjustable straps can also help improve the appearance of your silhouette by keeping your upper back from being overly squeezed while providing just the right amount of support and the right amount of tummy control.\n\nIn final words, even the best-shaped women and men can store fats around their midsection, so no, it\'s not just you. If you decide to go through the shapewear route, know this, it takes time and dedication, but it works.

You’ll feel better and heal faster in the long run. Don’t hesitate to ask for help whenever you need it. You don’t have to or need to do it all alone at this time.\n\nOnce you feel ready to get back on your feet (no pressure, please), you might consider belly binding as part of your arsenal of postpartum belly-blasting solutions.\n<h5>What is Pospartum Belly Wrap?</h5>\n<a style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;" href="https://damidols.com/shop/annchery-slim-body-wrap/">Postpartum belly wrap</a> is an age-old practice – in many cultures - of tightly tying the abdomen in a hold to help push down the size. Recent studies reveal that belly wraps might help with pain, as well as healing after delivery. It might support your organs and muscles as they move back into place after having a baby.\n\nIn Africa, it was done with a piece of long wrapper or thick cloth to be tied around the waist to help support your body after childbirth. This practice is helpful as your body continues to go through several changes after giving birth, and this wrap support can help your body heal.\n\nGranted that past generations used simple pieces of muslin cloth, today belly wrapping can range from traditional fabric lengths of cloths to <a style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;" href="https://damidols.com/product-category/shapewear/post-partum/">postpartum girdles</a> made from varying materials.\n\nIn recent times, the design for the belly wrap has been modified to be more comfortable - even fashionable for chic/fashion-conscious moms to get in on the benefits of the belly wrap without losing their sense of style.\n\nBelly wrapping is a process that’s designed to make postpartum recovery a little easier and might help your body heal faster, too.\n\nWhile it may be true that the internet is crammed with so many mommy influencer\'s tips for the postpartum belly as a way to reclaim their pre-baby bodies, we decided to take a deeper dive into how to use it safely and the benefits of belly wrapping.\n<h5>How to Safely use Postpartum Belly Wrap</h5>\nAfter giving birth, your body needs to readjust those muscles and organs back to their original place. When done correctly, belly wrapping the abdomen and around the hips can provide much-needed support to your pelvic floor.\n\nPlease note that postpartum belly wraps are not a ‘magic pill’ for weight loss, neither are they, waist trainers.&nbsp;\n\nBelly wrapping safely depends on how you gave birth and the wrapping method you plan to use. If you’re planning on using the <a style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;" href="https://www.newlittlelife.com/2018/12/12/bengkung-belly-binding-pros-and-cons/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">bengkung</a> belly (use a length of fabric that’s 9 inches wide and 16 yards long.\n\nThe goal is to wear the wrap for at least 12 hours a day, for a minimum of 30 days or more). This wrapping method can only be used if you gave birth via the vagina and can be used right away, not if you gave birth via surgery.\n\nIf you delivered via C-section, you should wait until your incision is healed and dry before applying it. The best bet is to consult with your doctor or midwife on the best route.\n\nIf you opt for more modern style binders or postpartum girdles, you can often use them right away. However, always talk to your doctor or midwife before you begin belly wrapping.\n\nNo matter the option you choose, you can wear the belly wrap for as long as you need to each day to feel comfortable. However, experts recommend that you only wear them for 2 to 12 weeks since prolonged wear can have profound effects.\n\nSadly, as simple as it all seems, wearing a belly wrap in the postpartum stage isn’t for everyone. Yes, they can lower pain from surgery and support your recovering body, be that as it may, there are some things you should know.\n\n<strong>Wrap up:</strong>&nbsp;Wear from down up. The best way to wear a postpartum belly wrap is to use an elastic wrap and start at the hips and wrap up. Wrapping the wrong way can cause downward pressure on your pelvic floor and can cause prolapse.\n\n<strong>Give yourself a break:</strong>&nbsp;It is not a good idea to wear a belly wrap all day.

It is clear that both male and female, everyone hates the side stub of protruding flesh called love handles.</p><p>Indeed, not only do they look bad and also speak volumes about your nutrition habits but also about your lifestyle choices. The term "love handle" is a cute way of describing that bothersome bit of your body that hangs above your hips and just under your waist. Also, the area at the back of the waist above the buttocks is referred to as the love handles or flank area. The area is the typical area where there are pockets of fat resistant to diet and exercise.</p><ul>\n 	<li><a href="#love">What are they?</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#causes">What Causes it?</a></li>\n<li><a href="#choose">How to choose the best shapewear for it</a></li>\n</ul><ul>\n 	<li><a href="#rules">Rules for Instant Results</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#look">What to look for in Shapewear</a></li>\n<li><a href="#correct">Correcting with Shapewear</a></li>\n</ul><p>Due to these love handles, it becomes difficult to fit in and have a trim silhouette in that beautiful LBD or beautiful body-hugging gown for your outings. On the other hand, men are also not left out in these battles with the love handles. Even a finely tailored suit can look ill-fitting with bulging flesh in the wrong places. </p><p>Whether you are petite or plus size, having love handles is a common nuisance. This article will delve into how to incorporate shapewears into your lifestyle changes to remove those love handles. Shapewear is an excellent undergarment to help with this for all body types. Let’s break down what love handles are and how to correct love handles using shapewear. </p><h5>What Are Love Handles?</h5><p style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://damidols.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Love-Handles-A-complete-Guide.jpg" alt="Love-Handles-A-complete-Guide" width="1000" height="625" /></p><p>Love handles, flanks, derriere, those protruding bits above your hips. This is a bothersome part of the body. It often seems unresponsive to diet (I know some slim women who battle love handles), and exercise hardly alters them as they aren\'t part of your major (or everyday use) muscle groups; hence you can\'t tone them up quickly.</p><p>More often than not, fitness, diet, and a lack of quality sleep are some of the main reasons for excess fat around the hip region; other factors may trigger them to be more evident.</p><h5>What causes love handles? </h5><p>As stated earlier, love handles are caused by fat accumulation in the area. When you ingest too many calories and don\'t burn as many calories as you consume, fat accumulates on your midsection and hips. </p><p>This is because your hips and belly are the first and last sites where fat deposits form and the last place they leave. </p><p>In truth, Women face this challenge more than men due to their higher risk of leptin resistance due to not eating the correct type of foods. Leptin is a hormone that causes the brain to alert you when you should stop eating and when your body has taken in enough calories. </p><p>A variety of factors causes love handles. These love handles are often persistent and challenging to get rid of or diminish. </p><p>One of the most common reasons for this status is a lack of a balanced diet, adequate sleep, and regular exercise. </p><p>Although fat deposits can form anywhere on the body, several circumstances that might cause fat to appear more prominently on the hips/love handles, lower back, and abdominal areas, including:<br />-Age.<br />-Lack of sleep.<br />-Hormonal Imbalances<br />-Medications.<br />-High far, Sugar or Calories -Consumption.<br />-A medical condition causing slow metabolism.<br />-Lack of physical activity.</p><p>While the issue is primarily cosmetic — as in, you do not love how they look — love handles can also indicate underlying risk factors for illnesses like type 2 diabetes, obesity, and heart disease. </p><h5>How to Correct Love Handles – The Shapewear Path. </h5><p>To get rid of love handles, there are surgical and non-surgical paths to correcting it.</p><p>The non-surgical options for love handle fat removal include fat dissolving injections called kybella (belkyra) or cryolipolysis (fat freezing) called cool sculpting. </p><p>The Surgical removal is performed by Liposuction with either the body jet or <a style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;" href="https://www.healthline.com/health/cosmetic-surgery/vaser-liposuction" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Vaser liposuction</a> systems. (<a style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;" href="https://damidols.com/liposuction-how-shapewear-can-help-you-heal-faster/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">View our article on Liposuction to see how incorporating shapewear can help you get excellent results there too</a>). </p><p>Having stated that, there is a third path that has a less painful, traumatic, complicated yet instantaneous effect of reducing love handles, and that’s the shapewear path. </p><p>Shapewear is a kind of underwear that you can wear beneath your clothes to change the direction of your body fat and make you appear slimmer. The term shapewear is sometimes used interchangeably with waist trainers. </p><p>However, a <a style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;" href="_wp_link_placeholder" data-wplink-edit="true">waist trainer</a> is targeted at the waistline or abdominal section against the shapewear, which comprises all garments that contribute or alter its wearer\'s silhouette. It can assist in smoothing out your curves and give your stomach a more proportional look to the rest of your body. </p><p>Further, the shapewear has the added benefit of concealing your love handles while also reduces the look of excess fat in susceptible areas. </p><h5><strong>Our Shapewear Rules for Instantly Concealing Love Handles</strong> </h5><p>Simply put, your love handles are a layer of flesh and fat over bone. There is only one way to hide them – using shapewear instantly. Compress them and wrap them in strong shapewear fabric! To make this transformation long-term, ensure to burn more calories daily than you consume. </p><p>According to a study on abdominal and flank fat, exercises focused on only the abdomen may not be enough to see results on love handles. In addition to targeting the abdominal muscles, it’s also essential to focus on full-body exercises, core building and strengthening exercises regularly, and avoid a sedentary lifestyle to see the best results. </p><p>These exercises combine both targeted ab exercises and other exercises — toning the back, hips, and legs — to maximize weight loss around the abdomen, flanks and/or love handles. </p><p><strong>Back to our instant solution. </strong></p><p>You will need extra STRENGHT shapewear on your love handles to make a big difference. When shopping, select EXTRA FIRM control that will help to compact them up. </p><p>Go for <a style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;" href="https://damidols.com/product-category/shapewear/thighs-legs/">full body shapewear</a>. You will need to have something that hides your lower hips, bottom and thighs too. If you wear knicker leg shapewear, you will get Visible Pant Line (VPL), no matter how well made and finely cut the shapewear is. </p><p>In addition, go for shapewear that is HIGH WAISTED if you don’t want the full-body type. The shapewear will firm and flatten your love handles. Let’s be honest; the flesh and fat need to have somewhere to go. If it slides UP, you will get flesh or fat spillage over the top of low waist shapewear. </p><p>This defeats the purpose and frustrates your desires. No one wants that! In this case, High waisted shapewear is the way to go. </p><h5>What to look for in a Shapewear that can control Love Handles?<strong> </strong></h5><p><strong>Control Waist Trainers/Cinchers -</strong></p><p>Control trainers are one of the most efficient ways to conceal love handles and belly fat. They are designed to tighten your waist for more support and to smooth out your body symmetrically. They prevent extra fat from being pushed out and balance out the distribution, making it less noticeable. </p><p>Good quality shapewear is designed to make you feel comfortable throughout the day, making them ideal for everyday tasks such as going to work or school. </p><p><strong>Control Pants/Control Camis -</strong></p><p>Control pants are briefs or knickers, and they are one of the most popular and dominant types of shapewear available. This is because they smooth out your hips, bum, and stomach without altering the appearance of your legs or upper torso.</p><p>Control camis are designed to help reduce tummy fat, but they are also very effective at smoothing out the curved areas around your hips. They have the appearance of a tank top but are specifically designed to make you look slimmer and narrower. </p><p>Camis are popular among women because they are the most comfortable to wear when compared to other styles. They conceal fat around your stomach region because it encases the upper torso. </p><p><strong>Body Shapers/ Suits</strong> -</p><p>Body shapers are similar to control camis, although much firmer. They target all areas of your upper torso, including your hips, tummy, breasts, and sides. They are ideal for abdominal spills and back fat.</p><p>They assist in manipulating excess skin and fat in the lower back by distributing it both upward and sideways. This helps to stretch out the skin around your hips, making your love handles less visible.</p><p>Shapewear can be worn with a variety of outfits, including formal gowns and everyday casual wear. They can be firmer or lighter in control and come in a variety of styles. </p><p><strong>Pro tip</strong>: If you\'re wearing a fancy dress, we recommend a firmer bodysuit because it helps distribute fat better than lighter options. When dressing casually, the opposite is true.</p><h5>How to Choose the Best Shapewear for Love Handles? </h5><p><strong>Size -</strong></p><p>Choosing the correct size of shapewear is key to improving the look of your overall body\'s silhouette, especially in tight-fitting clothes. Shapewear products usually show a sizing chart either online, through the manufacturer/supplier, or on the packaging. </p><p>Your correct size will be determined by your waist size, body shape and length. Also, ensure that you pick the sizing according to your country’s sizing metrics. This is because you will find that some international products have different variations and numerals. </p><p><strong>Comfort</strong> -</p><p>If you intend to wear shapewear regularly, it is critical to select comfortable shapewear. Materials that are flexible and breathable will help you feel less irritated throughout the day, especially in hot weather environments. Some can even absorb moisture if you sweat a lot. </p><p><strong>Pro tip:</strong> If your upper body is more comprehensive, you may want to consider an open bust design, which allows for more flexibility and comfort. </p><p><strong>Material -</strong></p><p>The material you choose will be determined by your previous experience wearing clothes. Some women prefer a firmer fabric, while others prefer a softer fabric. </p><p>When it comes to reducing the appearance of excess body fat around your waist, spandex and elastane are the best materials to use. </p><p>They will guarantee that they will hug your body without stretching over time and provide firm control without sacrificing comfort. </p><p><strong>Amount of Constriction -</strong> </p><p>The amount of constriction will depend on your body type. Albeit, there are a few qualities you should pay attention to get the best results when trying to reduce the visibility of your love handles. If you are going for control pants or tights, make sure it goes high above the waist region, covering your belly button. </p><p>This allows excess fat and skin to be distributed more evenly throughout the area than pushed in one direction. You will also notice that this makes you appear narrower and slimmer while preventing roll down. </p><p>Of course, if you want to wear a cami or a bodysuit, you will have no trouble doing so by default because they cover your entire upper torso. </p><p><strong>Adjustable Straps -</strong> </p><p>Adjustable straps are a great feature to look for in a full-body shapewear garment, such as a control cami or body shaper. These can assist you in customizing the fit so that it is more tailored to you. </p><p>Adjustable straps can also help improve the appearance of your silhouette by keeping your upper back from being overly squeezed while providing just the right amount of support and the right amount of tummy control.</p><p>In final words, even the best-shaped women and men can store fats around their midsection, so no, it\'s not just you. If you decide to go through the shapewear route, know this, it takes time and dedication, but it works.

Yes! You, our amazing readers and clients. We appreciate your business, inquiries, and feedback on all our articles and products. Please keep them coming! We exist for you alone.\n\nIn this week’s article, let’s delve into dispelling the corset myths and arguments. Our inbox is spilling over the brim with questions regarding this particular fashion wear. Well, you have spoken, and we have listened as always. Let’s get right to it.\n\nWhile some of the questions bother around the myths and curiosity about the corsets undergarments from earlier centuries (which are quite fascinating), other questions remain relevant even in today’s fashion world.\n<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>TABLE OF CONTENT</strong></p>\n\n<ul>\n 	<li><a href="#definition">Definition</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#history">Brief History</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#description">Description</a></li>\n</ul>\n<p style="text-align: left;"></p>\n\n<ul>\n 	<li><a href="#work">How it works</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#body">What it does to your body type</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#practices">Best Practices</a></li>\n</ul>\n<h5>What are Corsets?</h5>\nFirst, let’s be clear about what a corset is. A corset is a support garment usually worn to hold and train the torso into a desired shape. It can be worn as an undergarment or as an outer garment. It is worn to achieve the following effects: A smaller waist or larger bottom. For aesthetic or medical purposes (either for the duration of wearing it or with a more lasting effect). Support the breasts.\n\nIt is safe to say that every fashion ever designed takes its root or identity from the corset. Generally, corsets are wide belt-like garments that you wear around your midsection to slim the waist, flatten the tummy, and lift the bust. The term is used interchangeably with “girdle.” However, a girdle can come with a built-in pantry, while a corset generally does not.\n\nCorsets come in a few different forms in modern times. The most popular is a waist cincher, also called a waist trainer. As you know, this garment provides slimming with latex panels that are pinned in place with closures at the front of the garment (such as hook-and-eyes, zippers, and Velcro).\n\nBut why the fascination with the Corset undergarments? Is it the ultimate garment in the shapewear fashion world? I already have a waist trainer; do I also need a corset? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Does the corset shift my organs? How can I maintain the Corset effect? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?\n\nThese and more are some of the questions we have received on corsets.\n<h5>Brief History of Corset.</h5>\nFor nearly 500 years, women\'s primary means of support was the corset, with laces and stayed made of whalebone or metal. Researchers have found evidence of the use of corsets in the Minoan civilization of early Crete. (<a style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_corsets" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wikipedia</a>)\n\nThe corset has evolved over the decades. At first, in the late 16th century, it was called "a pair of bodies". A simple bodice, stiffened with the boning of reed or whalebone, could be an under or outer dress. At the initial design, a busk made of wood, horn, whalebone, metal, or ivory also reinforced the central front. In the 16th and 17th centuries, the corset could be a front or back lacing.\n\nIn the late seventeenth century, the English term "pair of bodies" was changed to "stays," which was generally used during the 18th century. The term ‘stays’ was probably used to connote how restrictive though instantly shapely the garments were at the time. Stays drastically turned the upper torso into a cone or cylinder shape.\n\nStays or Corsets evolved again in the 18th century, during which whalebone for boning became a constant and, in fact, a reference for quality. This period also saw an increase in boning in the making of the garment.\n\nThe shape of the stays changed as well in this period. They were low and wide in the front; they could reach as high as the upper shoulder in the back. Stays were designed to be strapless or to use shoulder straps. These straps were generally attached in the back and tied at the front.\n\nThe purpose of 18th-century stays was not just for fashion but to support the bust and confer the preferred conical shape while pulling the shoulders back. The laces were spiral at this time. One end of the stay lace was inserted into the bottom eyelet and knotted, and the other end was wound through the eyelets of the stays and tightened on the top.\n\nTight-lacing was not the primary function of stays or corsets at that time. This function was not possible until metal eyelets were introduced in the mid-1800s. Women of all levels of society wore stays or corsets, from ladies of the court to street vendors.\n\nThe term corset was not introduced until the late 20th century; the fashion industry has borrowed the term "corset" to refer to tops which, to varying degrees, imitate the look of traditional corsets without their function.\n\nOn the other hand, these modern corsets and corset tops often feature lacing or boning and generally imitate a historical style of corsets. Authentic corsets are usually made by a corsetmaker and are fitted to the individual wearer.\n\nThere’s a reason the practice of wearing a corset has been around for hundreds of years. When it comes to creating feminine curves, corsets perform.\n<h5>Corset Description</h5>\n<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://damidols.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Corset-Dispelling-the-Corset-Myths-1.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="667"></p>\nThe classic corset style, “steel-boned corset,” doesn’t use latex to compress to midsection; rather, it is designed with a lace-up back that is pulled tight. The bodice is constructed with satin, cotton, or even mesh, with flexible steel boning to keep it in place.\n\nAlso, note that different forms of corsets can come in either underbust or overbust styles. Overbust styles are used for costuming and sometimes in formal/bridal attire. In contrast, underbust styles are useful for everyday corset wear and slimming effect pursuits.\n\nThere is some confusion because a lot of these terms for corsets are constantly used loosely and interchangeably. For this article, we’ll mainly refer to the underbust steel-boned corset, which is the classic style used for corseting as described above. Plus, we’ll also refer to latex cinchers and vests when relevant.\n\nModern-day corsets look a little different, but they function the same. Having said that, since not everyone wears them anymore, there are a lot of misconceptions or myths out there about what corsets CAN and CAN’T do.\n\nNow we have a general understanding of a Corset, Let’s dispel some of the myths. Here’s the truth about what a corset can do to your body.\n<h5>How Does Corseting Work?</h5>\nNow that we’re clear on what a corset is let’s talk about how one works. When you wear any corset style and fasten it very tight, you’d experience the instant effect of it slimming your midsection. This is why some people prefer to use corset-style garments for special occasions or certain attires.\n\nHowever, this is not the only way to experience the benefits. Avid corset wearers like to follow a regimen called waist training (or corseting, especially if you’re using the steel-boned corset). This is the constant practice of wearing a corset-style garment daily for at least 8 hours.\n\nYou can waist train with the under-bust steel-bone corset or a latex cincher, as you wish. The purpose is to provide slimming support every day. Remember to combine this regime with a healthy lifestyle and diet to support your long-term slimming goals.\n\nThere are various ways this works:\n\nThe waist training via corsets works by stimulating heat and sweat in your core. This is especially helpful when working out, which is why <a style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;" href="https://damidols.com/product-category/sports/">workout waist trainers</a> are popular among our clients.\n\nA corset in combination with other effects works together to help you reach your goals. It supports your posture and poise, plus helping your clothes fit better. These seemingly simple effects improve your self-confidence and keep you motivated to stick to your healthy lifestyle.\n\nIn addition, you are reminded to keep your portions small since your waistline won’t be able to expand as much when under tight compression.\n\nPro-Tip: Do not compare your corseting experience with that of others. Everyone’s experience is a little different when it comes to corseting results. It all depends on your mindset, <a style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;" href="https://damidols.com/understanding-your-body-shape-which-one-are-you/">body type</a>, goals, lifestyle, and commitment to the practice.\n<h5>So What Exactly Does a Corset do to Your Body?</h5>\nAs stated earlier, there are many misconceptions and myths about the question of what a corset is, is not, or what it does to your body? Does it hurt anything? Does it shift your organs? Does it\ncause permanent change? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?\n\nA corset can be an amazing asset for your figure if you wear it properly. That is what it\'s designed to do: instantly slim your midsection to give you well-defined hourglass curves.\n\n<strong>What about prolonged use?</strong>\n\nSuppose you wear a corset as part of a corseting routine (8–12 hours a day). In that case, a properly-fitting corset only provides compression around your midsection, resulting in increased heat and sweat. It also corrects your posture in a straighter position for the duration.\n\n****Any discomfort or pain while wearing a corset signifies that the garment does not fit properly; remove it immediately. You may experience heat while wearing one, especially during an intense workout or in a warmer climate. Again, we recommend removing your corset if you experience too much discomfort.\n\nAnother concern or myth is whether a corset “shifts” or “moves” your organs. This is a tricky question because your organs are perfectly fine if they move around a bit. They are soft tissue (not glued to a spot), and that is completely normal.\n\nAlso, they shift (quite often) when you eat a large meal, go for a run or jogging, have a full bladder, drink a lot of water, or are pregnant. That doesn’t mean they are going to go gyrating out of place.\n\nCompression from any corset is naturally going to put some gentle pressure on your midsection (that’s how it works). The biggest effect you’ll notice is that you feel constricted to eat a large meal. Your stomach won’t be able to expand otherwise. This proves to be helpful to limit your portion sizes for weight loss!\n\nAs far as the myth on permanent changes goes, a corset does not cause any permanent changes on its own. Once you take a corset off, your midsection is going to revert to its natural shape.\n\nHaving that in mind, in the long-term, if you combine wearing the corset with a healthy lifestyle like regular exercise, a positive mindset, and a nutritious diet, you may begin to see changes in your curves. But the corset alone is not going to transform your body permanently into something it’s not.\n<h5>Our Corseting Best Practices</h5>\nNow that we have a broad foundation for corsets, it’s important to use a corset as directed.\n\nFirst, do not rush your waist training regimen. If you’re practicing regular waist training, start with shorter increments. Allow time for your body to adjust; If your corset is steel boned, it also needs time to break in.\n\nKeep this tip in mind if you plan on wearing a corset for a special event. Don’t just throw on the garment on the day of the event. Break it in the same way you would with a pair of shoes. Let it mold to your torso.\n\nOnly wear your corset for an hour or two for the first time; if it has a lace-up back, don’t pull the laces all the way tight. You can fully tighten the laces after the garment is seasoned and molded to your torso. (check after about two weeks of wearing it 1–2 hours a day).\n\nWaist training with latex garments is a bit different when you’re first starting. Gradually increase the time you wear one each day. After a few weeks, you should be comfortable wearing it most of the day.\n\nThe goal is to wear a corset for at least 8 hours a day plus the right lifestyle changes to get the best results for waist training. You can alternate between garments, especially if you plan on wearing a workout waist trainer while you exercise.\n\nDo not wear your corset for more than 12 hours a day. Your skin, spine, and core need a break from compression so they can rest and breathe. The same thing, if you wear the same corset every day, it needs a break too.\n\nLay your corset on a hanger in a well-ventilated area (not in direct sunlight) so that it can air out and retain its shape.\n\n<strong>Any Other Questions, Concerns, or Myths?</strong>\n\nAs fashion trends continue to evolve, it is clear that there’s a lot to learn regarding waist training and corseting. Also, more myths will be busted, but whatever your style preference is, always seek accurate information on the garment before investing in them.\n\nWith all the information you now have about corsets, you can go ahead and make an informed decision whether to add this garment to your collection or not.\n\nFinally, your choice will depend on your needs and goals. Remember to maintain a healthier lifestyle and make the correct changes to enjoy the long-term benefits of the corset.\n\nIt is always a pleasure to see your transformations plus; we are happy to help with all of your questions and concerns.

Our inbox is spilling over the brim with questions regarding this particular fashion wear. Well, you have spoken, and we have listened as always. Let’s get right to it.</p><p>While some of the questions bother around the myths and curiosity about the corsets undergarments from earlier centuries (which are quite fascinating), other questions remain relevant even in today’s fashion world.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><strong>TABLE OF CONTENT</strong></p><ul><li><a href="#what">Belly Wraps Meaning?</a></li><li><a href="#safe">How to safely use Them</a></li><li><a href="#benefit">Belly Wraps Benefits</a></li></ul><h5>What are Corsets?</h5><p>First, let’s be clear about what a corset is. A corset is a support garment usually worn to hold and train the torso into a desired shape. It can be worn as an undergarment or as an outer garment. It is worn to achieve the following effects: A smaller waist or larger bottom. For aesthetic or medical purposes (either for the duration of wearing it or with a more lasting effect).<br />Support the breasts.</p><p>It is safe to say that every fashion ever designed takes its root or identity from the corset. Generally, corsets are wide belt-like garments that you wear around your midsection to slim the waist, flatten the tummy, and lift the bust. The term is used interchangeably with “girdle.” However, a girdle can come with a built-in pantry, while a corset generally does not.</p><p>Corsets come in a few different forms in modern times. The most popular is a waist cincher, also called a waist trainer. As you know, this garment provides slimming with latex panels that are pinned in place with closures at the front of the garment (such as hook-and-eyes, zippers, and Velcro).</p><p>But why the fascination with the Corset undergarments? Is it the ultimate garment in the shapewear fashion world? I already have a waist trainer; do I also need a corset? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Does the corset shift my organs? How can I maintain the Corset effect? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>These and more are some of the questions we have received on corsets.</p><h5>Brief History of Corset.</h5><p>For nearly 500 years, women\'s primary means of support was the corset, with laces and stayed made of whalebone or metal. Researchers have found evidence of the use of corsets in the Minoan civilization of early Crete. (Wikipedia)</p><p>The corset has evolved over the decades. At first, in the late 16th century, it was called "a pair of bodies". A simple bodice, stiffened with the boning of reed or whalebone, could be an under or outer dress. At the initial design, a busk made of wood, horn, whalebone, metal, or ivory also reinforced the central front. In the 16th and 17th centuries, the corset could be a front or back lacing.</p><p>In the late seventeenth century, the English term "pair of bodies" was changed to "stays," which was generally used during the 18th century. The term ‘stays’ was probably used to connote how restrictive though instantly shapely the garments were at the time. Stays drastically turned the upper torso into a cone or cylinder shape.</p><p>Stays or Corsets evolved again in the 18th century, during which whalebone for boning became a constant and, in fact, a reference for quality. This period also saw an increase in boning in the making of the garment.</p><p>The shape of the stays changed as well in this period. They were low and wide in the front; they could reach as high as the upper shoulder in the back. Stays were designed to be strapless or to use shoulder straps. These straps were generally attached in the back and tied at the front.</p><p>The purpose of 18th-century stays was not just for fashion but to support the bust and confer the preferred conical shape while pulling the shoulders back. The laces were spiral at this time. One end of the stay lace was inserted into the bottom eyelet and knotted, and the other end was wound through the eyelets of the stays and tightened on the top.</p><p>Tight-lacing was not the primary function of stays or corsets at that time. This function was not possible until metal eyelets were introduced in the mid-1800s. Women of all levels of society wore stays or corsets, from ladies of the court to street vendors.</p><p>The term corset was not introduced until the late 20th century; the fashion industry has borrowed the term "corset" to refer to tops which, to varying degrees, imitate the look of traditional corsets without their function.</p><p>On the other hand, these modern corsets and corset tops often feature lacing or boning and generally imitate a historical style of corsets. Authentic corsets are usually made by a corsetmaker and are fitted to the individual wearer.</p><p>There’s a reason the practice of wearing a corset has been around for hundreds of years. When it comes to creating feminine curves, corsets perform.</p><h5>CORSET DESCRIPTION</h5><p>The classic corset style, “steel-boned corset,” doesn’t use latex to compress to midsection; rather, it is designed with a lace-up back that is pulled tight. The bodice is constructed with satin, cotton, or even mesh, with flexible steel boning to keep it in place.</p><p>Also, note that different forms of corsets can come in either underbust or overbust styles. Overbust styles are used for costuming and sometimes in formal/bridal attire. In contrast, underbust styles are useful for everyday corset wear and slimming effect pursuits.</p><p>There is some confusion because a lot of these terms for corsets are constantly used loosely and interchangeably. For this article, we’ll mainly refer to the underbust steel-boned corset, which is the classic style used for corseting as described above. Plus, we’ll also refer to latex cinchers and vests when relevant.</p><p>Modern-day corsets look a little different, but they function the same. Having said that, since not everyone wears them anymore, there are a lot of misconceptions or myths out there about what corsets CAN and CAN’T do.</p><p>Now we have a general understanding of a Corset, Let’s dispel some of the myths. Here’s the truth about what a corset can do to your body.</p><h5>How Does Corseting Work?</h5><p>Now that we’re clear on what a corset is let’s talk about how one works. When you wear any corset style and fasten it very tight, you’d experience the instant effect of it slimming your midsection. This is why some people prefer to use corset-style garments for special occasions or certain attires.</p><p>However, this is not the only way to experience the benefits. Avid corset wearers like to follow a regimen called waist training (or corseting, especially if you’re using the steel-boned corset). This is the constant practice of wearing a corset-style garment daily for at least 8 hours.</p><p>You can waist train with the under-bust steel-bone corset or a latex cincher, as you wish. The purpose is to provide slimming support every day. Remember to combine this regime with a healthy lifestyle and diet to support your long-term slimming goals.</p><p>There are various ways this works:</p><p>The waist training via corsets works by stimulating heat and sweat in your core. This is especially helpful when working out, which is why workout waist trainers are popular among our clients.</p><p>A corset in combination with other effects works together to help you reach your goals. It supports your posture and poise, plus helping your clothes fit better. These seemingly simple effects improve your self-confidence and keep you motivated to stick to your healthy lifestyle.</p><p>In addition, you are reminded to keep your portions small since your waistline won’t be able to expand as much when under tight compression.</p><p>Pro-Tip: Do not compare your corseting experience with that of others. Everyone’s experience is a little different when it comes to corseting results. It all depends on your mindset, body type, goals, lifestyle, and commitment to the practice.</p><h5>So What Exactly Does a Corset do to Your Body?</h5><p>As stated earlier, there are many misconceptions and myths about the question of what a corset is, is not, or what it does to your body? Does it hurt anything? Does it shift your organs? Does it<br />cause permanent change? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs?

We exist for you alone.</p><p>In this week’s article, let’s delve into dispelling the corset myths and arguments. Our inbox is spilling over the brim with questions regarding this particular fashion wear. Well, you have spoken, and we have listened as always. Let’s get right to it.</p><p>While some of the questions bother around the myths and curiosity about the corsets undergarments from earlier centuries (which are quite fascinating), other questions remain relevant even in today’s fashion world.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><strong>TABLE OF CONTENT</strong></p><ul><li><a href="#what">Belly Wraps Meaning?</a></li><li><a href="#safe">How to safely use Them</a></li><li><a href="#benefit">Belly Wraps Benefits</a></li></ul><h5>What are Corsets?</h5><p>First, let’s be clear about what a corset is. A corset is a support garment usually worn to hold and train the torso into a desired shape. It can be worn as an undergarment or as an outer garment. It is worn to achieve the following effects: A smaller waist or larger bottom. For aesthetic or medical purposes (either for the duration of wearing it or with a more lasting effect).<br />Support the breasts.</p><p>It is safe to say that every fashion ever designed takes its root or identity from the corset. Generally, corsets are wide belt-like garments that you wear around your midsection to slim the waist, flatten the tummy, and lift the bust. The term is used interchangeably with “girdle.” However, a girdle can come with a built-in pantry, while a corset generally does not.</p><p>Corsets come in a few different forms in modern times. The most popular is a waist cincher, also called a waist trainer. As you know, this garment provides slimming with latex panels that are pinned in place with closures at the front of the garment (such as hook-and-eyes, zippers, and Velcro).</p><p>But why the fascination with the Corset undergarments? Is it the ultimate garment in the shapewear fashion world? I already have a waist trainer; do I also need a corset? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Does the corset shift my organs? How can I maintain the Corset effect? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>These and more are some of the questions we have received on corsets.</p><h5>Brief History of Corset.</h5><p>For nearly 500 years, women\'s primary means of support was the corset, with laces and stayed made of whalebone or metal. Researchers have found evidence of the use of corsets in the Minoan civilization of early Crete. (Wikipedia)</p><p>The corset has evolved over the decades. At first, in the late 16th century, it was called "a pair of bodies". A simple bodice, stiffened with the boning of reed or whalebone, could be an under or outer dress. At the initial design, a busk made of wood, horn, whalebone, metal, or ivory also reinforced the central front. In the 16th and 17th centuries, the corset could be a front or back lacing.</p><p>In the late seventeenth century, the English term "pair of bodies" was changed to "stays," which was generally used during the 18th century. The term ‘stays’ was probably used to connote how restrictive though instantly shapely the garments were at the time. Stays drastically turned the upper torso into a cone or cylinder shape.</p><p>Stays or Corsets evolved again in the 18th century, during which whalebone for boning became a constant and, in fact, a reference for quality. This period also saw an increase in boning in the making of the garment.</p><p>The shape of the stays changed as well in this period. They were low and wide in the front; they could reach as high as the upper shoulder in the back. Stays were designed to be strapless or to use shoulder straps. These straps were generally attached in the back and tied at the front.</p><p>The purpose of 18th-century stays was not just for fashion but to support the bust and confer the preferred conical shape while pulling the shoulders back. The laces were spiral at this time. One end of the stay lace was inserted into the bottom eyelet and knotted, and the other end was wound through the eyelets of the stays and tightened on the top.</p><p>Tight-lacing was not the primary function of stays or corsets at that time. This function was not possible until metal eyelets were introduced in the mid-1800s. Women of all levels of society wore stays or corsets, from ladies of the court to street vendors.</p><p>The term corset was not introduced until the late 20th century; the fashion industry has borrowed the term "corset" to refer to tops which, to varying degrees, imitate the look of traditional corsets without their function.</p><p>On the other hand, these modern corsets and corset tops often feature lacing or boning and generally imitate a historical style of corsets. Authentic corsets are usually made by a corsetmaker and are fitted to the individual wearer.</p><p>There’s a reason the practice of wearing a corset has been around for hundreds of years. When it comes to creating feminine curves, corsets perform.</p><h5>CORSET DESCRIPTION</h5><p>The classic corset style, “steel-boned corset,” doesn’t use latex to compress to midsection; rather, it is designed with a lace-up back that is pulled tight. The bodice is constructed with satin, cotton, or even mesh, with flexible steel boning to keep it in place.</p><p>Also, note that different forms of corsets can come in either underbust or overbust styles. Overbust styles are used for costuming and sometimes in formal/bridal attire. In contrast, underbust styles are useful for everyday corset wear and slimming effect pursuits.</p><p>There is some confusion because a lot of these terms for corsets are constantly used loosely and interchangeably. For this article, we’ll mainly refer to the underbust steel-boned corset, which is the classic style used for corseting as described above. Plus, we’ll also refer to latex cinchers and vests when relevant.</p><p>Modern-day corsets look a little different, but they function the same. Having said that, since not everyone wears them anymore, there are a lot of misconceptions or myths out there about what corsets CAN and CAN’T do.</p><p>Now we have a general understanding of a Corset, Let’s dispel some of the myths. Here’s the truth about what a corset can do to your body.</p><h5>How Does Corseting Work?</h5><p>Now that we’re clear on what a corset is let’s talk about how one works. When you wear any corset style and fasten it very tight, you’d experience the instant effect of it slimming your midsection. This is why some people prefer to use corset-style garments for special occasions or certain attires.</p><p>However, this is not the only way to experience the benefits. Avid corset wearers like to follow a regimen called waist training (or corseting, especially if you’re using the steel-boned corset). This is the constant practice of wearing a corset-style garment daily for at least 8 hours.</p><p>You can waist train with the under-bust steel-bone corset or a latex cincher, as you wish. The purpose is to provide slimming support every day. Remember to combine this regime with a healthy lifestyle and diet to support your long-term slimming goals.</p><p>There are various ways this works:</p><p>The waist training via corsets works by stimulating heat and sweat in your core. This is especially helpful when working out, which is why workout waist trainers are popular among our clients.</p><p>A corset in combination with other effects works together to help you reach your goals. It supports your posture and poise, plus helping your clothes fit better. These seemingly simple effects improve your self-confidence and keep you motivated to stick to your healthy lifestyle.</p><p>In addition, you are reminded to keep your portions small since your waistline won’t be able to expand as much when under tight compression.</p><p>Pro-Tip: Do not compare your corseting experience with that of others. Everyone’s experience is a little different when it comes to corseting results. It all depends on your mindset, body type, goals, lifestyle, and commitment to the practice.</p><h5>So What Exactly Does a Corset do to Your Body?</h5><p>As stated earlier, there are many misconceptions and myths about the question of what a corset is, is not, or what it does to your body? Does it hurt anything? Does it shift your organs? Does it<br />cause permanent change? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>A corset can be an amazing asset for your figure if you wear it properly. That is what it\'s designed to do: instantly slim your midsection to give you well-defined hourglass curves.</p><p><strong>What about prolonged use?</strong></p><p>Suppose you wear a corset as part of a corseting routine (8–12 hours a day). In that case, a properly-fitting corset only provides compression around your midsection, resulting in increased heat and sweat. It also corrects your posture in a straighter position for the duration.</p><p>****Any discomfort or pain while wearing a corset signifies that the garment does not fit properly; remove it immediately. You may experience heat while wearing one, especially during an intense workout or in a warmer climate. Again, we recommend removing your corset if you experience too much discomfort.</p><p>Another concern or myth is whether a corset “shifts” or “moves” your organs. This is a tricky question because your organs are perfectly fine if they move around a bit. They are soft tissue (not glued to a spot), and that is completely normal.</p><p>Also, they shift (quite often) when you eat a large meal, go for a run or jogging, have a full bladder, drink a lot of water, or are pregnant. That doesn’t mean they are going to go gyrating out of place.</p><p>Compression from any corset is naturally going to put some gentle pressure on your midsection (that’s how it works). The biggest effect you’ll notice is that you feel constricted to eat a large meal. Your stomach won’t be able to expand otherwise. This proves to be helpful to limit your portion sizes for weight loss!</p><p>As far as the myth on permanent changes goes, a corset does not cause any permanent changes on its own. Once you take a corset off, your midsection is going to revert to its natural shape.</p><p>Having that in mind, in the long-term, if you combine wearing the corset with a healthy lifestyle like regular exercise, a positive mindset, and a nutritious diet, you may begin to see changes in your curves. But the alone corset is not going to transform your body permanently into something it’s not.</p><h5>Our Corseting Best Practices</h5><p>Now that we have a broad foundation for corsets, it’s important to use a corset as directed.</p><p>First, do not rush your waist training regimen. If you’re practicing regular waist training, start with shorter increments. Allow time for your body to adjust; If your corset is steel boned, it also needs time to break in.</p><p>Keep this tip in mind if you plan on wearing a corset for a special event. Don’t just throw on the garment on the day of the event. Break it in the same way you would a pair of shoes. Let it mold to your torso.</p><p>Only wear your corset for an hour or two for the first time; if it has a lace-up back, don’t pull the laces all the way tight. You can fully tighten the laces after the garment is seasoned and molded to your torso. (check after about two weeks of wearing it 1–2 hours a day).</p><p>Waist training with latex garments is a bit different when you’re first starting. Gradually increase the time you wear one each day. After a few weeks, you should be comfortable wearing it most of the day.</p><p>The goal is to wear a corset for at least 8 hours a day plus the right lifestyle changes to get the best results for waist training. You can alternate between garments, especially if you plan on wearing a workout waist trainer while you exercise.</p><p>Do not wear your corset for more than 12 hours a day. Your skin, spine, and core need a break from compression so they can rest and breathe. The same thing, if you wear the same corset every day, it needs a break too.</p><p>Lay your corset on a hanger in a well-ventilated area (not in direct sunlight) so that it can air out and retain its shape.</p><p><strong>Any Other Questions, Concerns, or Myths?</strong></p><p>***As fashion trends continue to evolve, it is clear that there’s a lot to learn regarding waist training and corseting. Also, more myths will be busted, but whatever your style preference, always seek accurate information on the garment before investing in them.</p><p>With all the information you now have about corsets, you can go ahead and make an informed decision whether to add this garment to your collection or not.</p><p>Finally, your choice will depend on your needs and goals. Remember to maintain a healthier lifestyle and make the correct changes to enjoy the long-term benefits of the corset.</p><p>It is always a pleasure to see your transformations plus; we are happy to help with all of your questions and concerns.

Support the breasts.</p><p>It is safe to say that every fashion ever designed takes its root or identity from the corset. Generally, corsets are wide belt-like garments that you wear around your midsection to slim the waist, flatten the tummy, and lift the bust. The term is used interchangeably with “girdle.” However, a girdle can come with a built-in pantry, while a corset generally does not.</p><p>Corsets come in a few different forms in modern times. The most popular is a waist cincher, also called a waist trainer. As you know, this garment provides slimming with latex panels that are pinned in place with closures at the front of the garment (such as hook-and-eyes, zippers, and Velcro).</p><p>But why the fascination with the Corset undergarments? Is it the ultimate garment in the shapewear fashion world? I already have a waist trainer; do I also need a corset? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Does the corset shift my organs? How can I maintain the Corset effect? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>These and more are some of the questions we have received on corsets.</p><h5>Brief History of Corset.</h5><p>For nearly 500 years, women\'s primary means of support was the corset, with laces and stayed made of whalebone or metal. Researchers have found evidence of the use of corsets in the Minoan civilization of early Crete. (Wikipedia)</p><p>The corset has evolved over the decades. At first, in the late 16th century, it was called "a pair of bodies". A simple bodice, stiffened with the boning of reed or whalebone, could be an under or outer dress. At the initial design, a busk made of wood, horn, whalebone, metal, or ivory also reinforced the central front. In the 16th and 17th centuries, the corset could be a front or back lacing.</p><p>In the late seventeenth century, the English term "pair of bodies" was changed to "stays," which was generally used during the 18th century. The term ‘stays’ was probably used to connote how restrictive though instantly shapely the garments were at the time. Stays drastically turned the upper torso into a cone or cylinder shape.</p><p>Stays or Corsets evolved again in the 18th century, during which whalebone for boning became a constant and, in fact, a reference for quality. This period also saw an increase in boning in the making of the garment.</p><p>The shape of the stays changed as well in this period. They were low and wide in the front; they could reach as high as the upper shoulder in the back. Stays were designed to be strapless or to use shoulder straps. These straps were generally attached in the back and tied at the front.</p><p>The purpose of 18th-century stays was not just for fashion but to support the bust and confer the preferred conical shape while pulling the shoulders back. The laces were spiral at this time. One end of the stay lace was inserted into the bottom eyelet and knotted, and the other end was wound through the eyelets of the stays and tightened on the top.</p><p>Tight-lacing was not the primary function of stays or corsets at that time. This function was not possible until metal eyelets were introduced in the mid-1800s. Women of all levels of society wore stays or corsets, from ladies of the court to street vendors.</p><p>The term corset was not introduced until the late 20th century; the fashion industry has borrowed the term "corset" to refer to tops which, to varying degrees, imitate the look of traditional corsets without their function.</p><p>On the other hand, these modern corsets and corset tops often feature lacing or boning and generally imitate a historical style of corsets. Authentic corsets are usually made by a corsetmaker and are fitted to the individual wearer.</p><p>There’s a reason the practice of wearing a corset has been around for hundreds of years. When it comes to creating feminine curves, corsets perform.</p><h5>Corset Description</h5><p style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://damidols.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Corset-Dispelling-the-Corset-Myths-1.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="667" /></p><p>The classic corset style, “steel-boned corset,” doesn’t use latex to compress to midsection; rather, it is designed with a lace-up back that is pulled tight. The bodice is constructed with satin, cotton, or even mesh, with flexible steel boning to keep it in place.</p><p>Also, note that different forms of corsets can come in either underbust or overbust styles. Overbust styles are used for costuming and sometimes in formal/bridal attire. In contrast, underbust styles are useful for everyday corset wear and slimming effect pursuits.</p><p>There is some confusion because a lot of these terms for corsets are constantly used loosely and interchangeably. For this article, we’ll mainly refer to the underbust steel-boned corset, which is the classic style used for corseting as described above. Plus, we’ll also refer to latex cinchers and vests when relevant.</p><p>Modern-day corsets look a little different, but they function the same. Having said that, since not everyone wears them anymore, there are a lot of misconceptions or myths out there about what corsets CAN and CAN’T do.</p><p>Now we have a general understanding of a Corset, Let’s dispel some of the myths. Here’s the truth about what a corset can do to your body.</p><h5>How Does Corseting Work?</h5><p>Now that we’re clear on what a corset is let’s talk about how one works. When you wear any corset style and fasten it very tight, you’d experience the instant effect of it slimming your midsection. This is why some people prefer to use corset-style garments for special occasions or certain attires.</p><p>However, this is not the only way to experience the benefits. Avid corset wearers like to follow a regimen called waist training (or corseting, especially if you’re using the steel-boned corset). This is the constant practice of wearing a corset-style garment daily for at least 8 hours.</p><p>You can waist train with the under-bust steel-bone corset or a latex cincher, as you wish. The purpose is to provide slimming support every day. Remember to combine this regime with a healthy lifestyle and diet to support your long-term slimming goals.</p><p>There are various ways this works:</p><p>The waist training via corsets works by stimulating heat and sweat in your core. This is especially helpful when working out, which is why workout waist trainers are popular among our clients.</p><p>A corset in combination with other effects works together to help you reach your goals. It supports your posture and poise, plus helping your clothes fit better. These seemingly simple effects improve your self-confidence and keep you motivated to stick to your healthy lifestyle.</p><p>In addition, you are reminded to keep your portions small since your waistline won’t be able to expand as much when under tight compression.</p><p>Pro-Tip: Do not compare your corseting experience with that of others. Everyone’s experience is a little different when it comes to corseting results. It all depends on your mindset, body type, goals, lifestyle, and commitment to the practice.</p><h5>So What Exactly Does a Corset do to Your Body?</h5><p>As stated earlier, there are many misconceptions and myths about the question of what a corset is, is not, or what it does to your body? Does it hurt anything? Does it shift your organs? Does it<br />cause permanent change? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>A corset can be an amazing asset for your figure if you wear it properly. That is what it\'s designed to do: instantly slim your midsection to give you well-defined hourglass curves.</p><p><strong>What about prolonged use?</strong></p><p>Suppose you wear a corset as part of a corseting routine (8–12 hours a day). In that case, a properly-fitting corset only provides compression around your midsection, resulting in increased heat and sweat. It also corrects your posture in a straighter position for the duration.</p><p>****Any discomfort or pain while wearing a corset signifies that the garment does not fit properly; remove it immediately. You may experience heat while wearing one, especially during an intense workout or in a warmer climate. Again, we recommend removing your corset if you experience too much discomfort.</p><p>Another concern or myth is whether a corset “shifts” or “moves” your organs. This is a tricky question because your organs are perfectly fine if they move around a bit. They are soft tissue (not glued to a spot), and that is completely normal.</p><p>Also, they shift (quite often) when you eat a large meal, go for a run or jogging, have a full bladder, drink a lot of water, or are pregnant. That doesn’t mean they are going to go gyrating out of place.</p><p>Compression from any corset is naturally going to put some gentle pressure on your midsection (that’s how it works). The biggest effect you’ll notice is that you feel constricted to eat a large meal. Your stomach won’t be able to expand otherwise. This proves to be helpful to limit your portion sizes for weight loss!</p><p>As far as the myth on permanent changes goes, a corset does not cause any permanent changes on its own. Once you take a corset off, your midsection is going to revert to its natural shape.</p><p>Having that in mind, in the long-term, if you combine wearing the corset with a healthy lifestyle like regular exercise, a positive mindset, and a nutritious diet, you may begin to see changes in your curves. But the alone corset is not going to transform your body permanently into something it’s not.</p><h5>Our Corseting Best Practices</h5><p>Now that we have a broad foundation for corsets, it’s important to use a corset as directed.</p><p>First, do not rush your waist training regimen. If you’re practicing regular waist training, start with shorter increments. Allow time for your body to adjust; If your corset is steel boned, it also needs time to break in.</p><p>Keep this tip in mind if you plan on wearing a corset for a special event. Don’t just throw on the garment on the day of the event. Break it in the same way you would a pair of shoes. Let it mold to your torso.</p><p>Only wear your corset for an hour or two for the first time; if it has a lace-up back, don’t pull the laces all the way tight. You can fully tighten the laces after the garment is seasoned and molded to your torso. (check after about two weeks of wearing it 1–2 hours a day).</p><p>Waist training with latex garments is a bit different when you’re first starting. Gradually increase the time you wear one each day. After a few weeks, you should be comfortable wearing it most of the day.</p><p>The goal is to wear a corset for at least 8 hours a day plus the right lifestyle changes to get the best results for waist training. You can alternate between garments, especially if you plan on wearing a workout waist trainer while you exercise.</p><p>Do not wear your corset for more than 12 hours a day. Your skin, spine, and core need a break from compression so they can rest and breathe. The same thing, if you wear the same corset every day, it needs a break too.</p><p>Lay your corset on a hanger in a well-ventilated area (not in direct sunlight) so that it can air out and retain its shape.</p><p><strong>Any Other Questions, Concerns, or Myths?</strong></p><p>***As fashion trends continue to evolve, it is clear that there’s a lot to learn regarding waist training and corseting. Also, more myths will be busted, but whatever your style preference, always seek accurate information on the garment before investing in them.</p><p>With all the information you now have about corsets, you can go ahead and make an informed decision whether to add this garment to your collection or not.</p><p>Finally, your choice will depend on your needs and goals. Remember to maintain a healthier lifestyle and make the correct changes to enjoy the long-term benefits of the corset.</p><p>It is always a pleasure to see your transformations plus; we are happy to help with all of your questions and concerns.

Here’s the truth about what a corset can do to your body.</p><h5>How Does Corseting Work?</h5><p>Now that we’re clear on what a corset is let’s talk about how one works. When you wear any corset style and fasten it very tight, you’d experience the instant effect of it slimming your midsection. This is why some people prefer to use corset-style garments for special occasions or certain attires.</p><p>However, this is not the only way to experience the benefits. Avid corset wearers like to follow a regimen called waist training (or corseting, especially if you’re using the steel-boned corset). This is the constant practice of wearing a corset-style garment daily for at least 8 hours.</p><p>You can waist train with the under-bust steel-bone corset or a latex cincher, as you wish. The purpose is to provide slimming support every day. Remember to combine this regime with a healthy lifestyle and diet to support your long-term slimming goals.</p><p>There are various ways this works:</p><p>The waist training via corsets works by stimulating heat and sweat in your core. This is especially helpful when working out, which is why workout waist trainers are popular among our clients.</p><p>A corset in combination with other effects works together to help you reach your goals. It supports your posture and poise, plus helping your clothes fit better. These seemingly simple effects improve your self-confidence and keep you motivated to stick to your healthy lifestyle.</p><p>In addition, you are reminded to keep your portions small since your waistline won’t be able to expand as much when under tight compression.</p><p>Pro-Tip: Do not compare your corseting experience with that of others. Everyone’s experience is a little different when it comes to corseting results. It all depends on your mindset, body type, goals, lifestyle, and commitment to the practice.</p><h5>So What Exactly Does a Corset do to Your Body?</h5><p>As stated earlier, there are many misconceptions and myths about the question of what a corset is, is not, or what it does to your body? Does it hurt anything? Does it shift your organs? Does it<br />cause permanent change? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>A corset can be an amazing asset for your figure if you wear it properly. That is what it\'s designed to do: instantly slim your midsection to give you well-defined hourglass curves.</p><p><strong>What about prolonged use?</strong></p><p>Suppose you wear a corset as part of a corseting routine (8–12 hours a day). In that case, a properly-fitting corset only provides compression around your midsection, resulting in increased heat and sweat. It also corrects your posture in a straighter position for the duration.</p><p>****Any discomfort or pain while wearing a corset signifies that the garment does not fit properly; remove it immediately. You may experience heat while wearing one, especially during an intense workout or in a warmer climate. Again, we recommend removing your corset if you experience too much discomfort.</p><p>Another concern or myth is whether a corset “shifts” or “moves” your organs. This is a tricky question because your organs are perfectly fine if they move around a bit. They are soft tissue (not glued to a spot), and that is completely normal.</p><p>Also, they shift (quite often) when you eat a large meal, go for a run or jogging, have a full bladder, drink a lot of water, or are pregnant. That doesn’t mean they are going to go gyrating out of place.</p><p>Compression from any corset is naturally going to put some gentle pressure on your midsection (that’s how it works). The biggest effect you’ll notice is that you feel constricted to eat a large meal. Your stomach won’t be able to expand otherwise. This proves to be helpful to limit your portion sizes for weight loss!</p><p>As far as the myth on permanent changes goes, a corset does not cause any permanent changes on its own. Once you take a corset off, your midsection is going to revert to its natural shape.</p><p>Having that in mind, in the long-term, if you combine wearing the corset with a healthy lifestyle like regular exercise, a positive mindset, and a nutritious diet, you may begin to see changes in your curves. But the alone corset is not going to transform your body permanently into something it’s not.</p><h5>Our Corseting Best Practices</h5><p>Now that we have a broad foundation for corsets, it’s important to use a corset as directed.</p><p>First, do not rush your waist training regimen. If you’re practicing regular waist training, start with shorter increments. Allow time for your body to adjust; If your corset is steel boned, it also needs time to break in.</p><p>Keep this tip in mind if you plan on wearing a corset for a special event. Don’t just throw on the garment on the day of the event. Break it in the same way you would a pair of shoes. Let it mold to your torso.</p><p>Only wear your corset for an hour or two for the first time; if it has a lace-up back, don’t pull the laces all the way tight. You can fully tighten the laces after the garment is seasoned and molded to your torso. (check after about two weeks of wearing it 1–2 hours a day).</p><p>Waist training with latex garments is a bit different when you’re first starting. Gradually increase the time you wear one each day. After a few weeks, you should be comfortable wearing it most of the day.</p><p>The goal is to wear a corset for at least 8 hours a day plus the right lifestyle changes to get the best results for waist training. You can alternate between garments, especially if you plan on wearing a workout waist trainer while you exercise.</p><p>Do not wear your corset for more than 12 hours a day. Your skin, spine, and core need a break from compression so they can rest and breathe. The same thing, if you wear the same corset every day, it needs a break too.</p><p>Lay your corset on a hanger in a well-ventilated area (not in direct sunlight) so that it can air out and retain its shape.</p><p><strong>Any Other Questions, Concerns, or Myths?</strong></p><p>***As fashion trends continue to evolve, it is clear that there’s a lot to learn regarding waist training and corseting. Also, more myths will be busted, but whatever your style preference, always seek accurate information on the garment before investing in them.</p><p>With all the information you now have about corsets, you can go ahead and make an informed decision whether to add this garment to your collection or not.</p><p>Finally, your choice will depend on your needs and goals. Remember to maintain a healthier lifestyle and make the correct changes to enjoy the long-term benefits of the corset.</p><p>It is always a pleasure to see your transformations plus; we are happy to help with all of your questions and concerns.

Let’s get right to it.</p><p>While some of the questions bother around the myths and curiosity about the corsets undergarments from earlier centuries (which are quite fascinating), other questions remain relevant even in today’s fashion world.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><strong>TABLE OF CONTENT</strong></p>\n<ul>\n 	<li><a href="#definition">Definition</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#history">Brief History</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#description">Description</a></li>\n</ul><p style="text-align: left;"><strong>TABLE OF CONTENT</strong></p>\n<ul>\n 	<li><a href="#works">How it works</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#bodytype">What it does to your body type</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#practices">Best Practices</a></li>\n</ul><h5>What are Corsets?</h5><p>First, let’s be clear about what a corset is. A corset is a support garment usually worn to hold and train the torso into a desired shape. It can be worn as an undergarment or as an outer garment. It is worn to achieve the following effects: A smaller waist or larger bottom. For aesthetic or medical purposes (either for the duration of wearing it or with a more lasting effect). Support the breasts.</p><p>It is safe to say that every fashion ever designed takes its root or identity from the corset. Generally, corsets are wide belt-like garments that you wear around your midsection to slim the waist, flatten the tummy, and lift the bust. The term is used interchangeably with “girdle.” However, a girdle can come with a built-in pantry, while a corset generally does not.</p><p>Corsets come in a few different forms in modern times. The most popular is a waist cincher, also called a waist trainer. As you know, this garment provides slimming with latex panels that are pinned in place with closures at the front of the garment (such as hook-and-eyes, zippers, and Velcro).</p><p>But why the fascination with the Corset undergarments? Is it the ultimate garment in the shapewear fashion world? I already have a waist trainer; do I also need a corset? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Does the corset shift my organs? How can I maintain the Corset effect? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>These and more are some of the questions we have received on corsets.</p><h5>Brief History of Corset.</h5><p>For nearly 500 years, women\'s primary means of support was the corset, with laces and stayed made of whalebone or metal. Researchers have found evidence of the use of corsets in the Minoan civilization of early Crete. (Wikipedia)</p><p>The corset has evolved over the decades. At first, in the late 16th century, it was called "a pair of bodies". A simple bodice, stiffened with the boning of reed or whalebone, could be an under or outer dress. At the initial design, a busk made of wood, horn, whalebone, metal, or ivory also reinforced the central front. In the 16th and 17th centuries, the corset could be a front or back lacing.</p><p>In the late seventeenth century, the English term "pair of bodies" was changed to "stays," which was generally used during the 18th century. The term ‘stays’ was probably used to connote how restrictive though instantly shapely the garments were at the time. Stays drastically turned the upper torso into a cone or cylinder shape.</p><p>Stays or Corsets evolved again in the 18th century, during which whalebone for boning became a constant and, in fact, a reference for quality. This period also saw an increase in boning in the making of the garment.</p><p>The shape of the stays changed as well in this period. They were low and wide in the front; they could reach as high as the upper shoulder in the back. Stays were designed to be strapless or to use shoulder straps. These straps were generally attached in the back and tied at the front.</p><p>The purpose of 18th-century stays was not just for fashion but to support the bust and confer the preferred conical shape while pulling the shoulders back. The laces were spiral at this time. One end of the stay lace was inserted into the bottom eyelet and knotted, and the other end was wound through the eyelets of the stays and tightened on the top.</p><p>Tight-lacing was not the primary function of stays or corsets at that time. This function was not possible until metal eyelets were introduced in the mid-1800s. Women of all levels of society wore stays or corsets, from ladies of the court to street vendors.</p><p>The term corset was not introduced until the late 20th century; the fashion industry has borrowed the term "corset" to refer to tops which, to varying degrees, imitate the look of traditional corsets without their function.</p><p>On the other hand, these modern corsets and corset tops often feature lacing or boning and generally imitate a historical style of corsets.

Does it hurt anything? Does it shift your organs? Does it<br />cause permanent change? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>A corset can be an amazing asset for your figure if you wear it properly. That is what it\'s designed to do: instantly slim your midsection to give you well-defined hourglass curves.</p><p><strong>What about prolonged use?</strong></p><p>Suppose you wear a corset as part of a corseting routine (8–12 hours a day). In that case, a properly-fitting corset only provides compression around your midsection, resulting in increased heat and sweat. It also corrects your posture in a straighter position for the duration.</p><p>****Any discomfort or pain while wearing a corset signifies that the garment does not fit properly; remove it immediately. You may experience heat while wearing one, especially during an intense workout or in a warmer climate. Again, we recommend removing your corset if you experience too much discomfort.</p><p>Another concern or myth is whether a corset “shifts” or “moves” your organs. This is a tricky question because your organs are perfectly fine if they move around a bit. They are soft tissue (not glued to a spot), and that is completely normal.</p><p>Also, they shift (quite often) when you eat a large meal, go for a run or jogging, have a full bladder, drink a lot of water, or are pregnant. That doesn’t mean they are going to go gyrating out of place.</p><p>Compression from any corset is naturally going to put some gentle pressure on your midsection (that’s how it works). The biggest effect you’ll notice is that you feel constricted to eat a large meal. Your stomach won’t be able to expand otherwise. This proves to be helpful to limit your portion sizes for weight loss!</p><p>As far as the myth on permanent changes goes, a corset does not cause any permanent changes on its own. Once you take a corset off, your midsection is going to revert to its natural shape.</p><p>Having that in mind, in the long-term, if you combine wearing the corset with a healthy lifestyle like regular exercise, a positive mindset, and a nutritious diet, you may begin to see changes in your curves. But the alone corset is not going to transform your body permanently into something it’s not.</p><h5>Our Corseting Best Practices</h5><p>Now that we have a broad foundation for corsets, it’s important to use a corset as directed.</p><p>First, do not rush your waist training regimen. If you’re practicing regular waist training, start with shorter increments. Allow time for your body to adjust; If your corset is steel boned, it also needs time to break in.</p><p>Keep this tip in mind if you plan on wearing a corset for a special event. Don’t just throw on the garment on the day of the event. Break it in the same way you would a pair of shoes. Let it mold to your torso.</p><p>Only wear your corset for an hour or two for the first time; if it has a lace-up back, don’t pull the laces all the way tight. You can fully tighten the laces after the garment is seasoned and molded to your torso. (check after about two weeks of wearing it 1–2 hours a day).</p><p>Waist training with latex garments is a bit different when you’re first starting. Gradually increase the time you wear one each day. After a few weeks, you should be comfortable wearing it most of the day.</p><p>The goal is to wear a corset for at least 8 hours a day plus the right lifestyle changes to get the best results for waist training. You can alternate between garments, especially if you plan on wearing a workout waist trainer while you exercise.</p><p>Do not wear your corset for more than 12 hours a day. Your skin, spine, and core need a break from compression so they can rest and breathe. The same thing, if you wear the same corset every day, it needs a break too.</p><p>Lay your corset on a hanger in a well-ventilated area (not in direct sunlight) so that it can air out and retain its shape.</p><p><strong>Any Other Questions, Concerns, or Myths?</strong></p><p>***As fashion trends continue to evolve, it is clear that there’s a lot to learn regarding waist training and corseting. Also, more myths will be busted, but whatever your style preference, always seek accurate information on the garment before investing in them.</p><p>With all the information you now have about corsets, you can go ahead and make an informed decision whether to add this garment to your collection or not.</p><p>Finally, your choice will depend on your needs and goals.

A corset is a support garment usually worn to hold and train the torso into a desired shape. It can be worn as an undergarment or as an outer garment. It is worn to achieve the following effects: A smaller waist or larger bottom. For aesthetic or medical purposes (either for the duration of wearing it or with a more lasting effect). Support the breasts.</p><p>It is safe to say that every fashion ever designed takes its root or identity from the corset. Generally, corsets are wide belt-like garments that you wear around your midsection to slim the waist, flatten the tummy, and lift the bust. The term is used interchangeably with “girdle.” However, a girdle can come with a built-in pantry, while a corset generally does not.</p><p>Corsets come in a few different forms in modern times. The most popular is a waist cincher, also called a waist trainer. As you know, this garment provides slimming with latex panels that are pinned in place with closures at the front of the garment (such as hook-and-eyes, zippers, and Velcro).</p><p>But why the fascination with the Corset undergarments? Is it the ultimate garment in the shapewear fashion world? I already have a waist trainer; do I also need a corset? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Does the corset shift my organs? How can I maintain the Corset effect? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>These and more are some of the questions we have received on corsets.</p><h5>Brief History of Corset.</h5><p>For nearly 500 years, women\'s primary means of support was the corset, with laces and stayed made of whalebone or metal. Researchers have found evidence of the use of corsets in the Minoan civilization of early Crete. (Wikipedia)</p><p>The corset has evolved over the decades. At first, in the late 16th century, it was called "a pair of bodies". A simple bodice, stiffened with the boning of reed or whalebone, could be an under or outer dress. At the initial design, a busk made of wood, horn, whalebone, metal, or ivory also reinforced the central front. In the 16th and 17th centuries, the corset could be a front or back lacing.</p><p>In the late seventeenth century, the English term "pair of bodies" was changed to "stays," which was generally used during the 18th century. The term ‘stays’ was probably used to connote how restrictive though instantly shapely the garments were at the time. Stays drastically turned the upper torso into a cone or cylinder shape.</p><p>Stays or Corsets evolved again in the 18th century, during which whalebone for boning became a constant and, in fact, a reference for quality. This period also saw an increase in boning in the making of the garment.</p><p>The shape of the stays changed as well in this period. They were low and wide in the front; they could reach as high as the upper shoulder in the back. Stays were designed to be strapless or to use shoulder straps. These straps were generally attached in the back and tied at the front.</p><p>The purpose of 18th-century stays was not just for fashion but to support the bust and confer the preferred conical shape while pulling the shoulders back. The laces were spiral at this time. One end of the stay lace was inserted into the bottom eyelet and knotted, and the other end was wound through the eyelets of the stays and tightened on the top.</p><p>Tight-lacing was not the primary function of stays or corsets at that time. This function was not possible until metal eyelets were introduced in the mid-1800s. Women of all levels of society wore stays or corsets, from ladies of the court to street vendors.</p><p>The term corset was not introduced until the late 20th century; the fashion industry has borrowed the term "corset" to refer to tops which, to varying degrees, imitate the look of traditional corsets without their function.</p><p>On the other hand, these modern corsets and corset tops often feature lacing or boning and generally imitate a historical style of corsets. Authentic corsets are usually made by a corsetmaker and are fitted to the individual wearer.</p><p>There’s a reason the practice of wearing a corset has been around for hundreds of years. When it comes to creating feminine curves, corsets perform.</p><h5>Corset Description</h5><p style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://damidols.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Corset-Dispelling-the-Corset-Myths-1.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="667" /></p><p>The classic corset style, “steel-boned corset,” doesn’t use latex to compress to midsection; rather, it is designed with a lace-up back that is pulled tight. The bodice is constructed with satin, cotton, or even mesh, with flexible steel boning to keep it in place.</p><p>Also, note that different forms of corsets can come in either underbust or overbust styles. Overbust styles are used for costuming and sometimes in formal/bridal attire. In contrast, underbust styles are useful for everyday corset wear and slimming effect pursuits.</p><p>There is some confusion because a lot of these terms for corsets are constantly used loosely and interchangeably. For this article, we’ll mainly refer to the underbust steel-boned corset, which is the classic style used for corseting as described above. Plus, we’ll also refer to latex cinchers and vests when relevant.</p><p>Modern-day corsets look a little different, but they function the same. Having said that, since not everyone wears them anymore, there are a lot of misconceptions or myths out there about what corsets CAN and CAN’T do.</p><p>Now we have a general understanding of a Corset, Let’s dispel some of the myths. Here’s the truth about what a corset can do to your body.</p><h5>How Does Corseting Work?</h5><p>Now that we’re clear on what a corset is let’s talk about how one works. When you wear any corset style and fasten it very tight, you’d experience the instant effect of it slimming your midsection. This is why some people prefer to use corset-style garments for special occasions or certain attires.</p><p>However, this is not the only way to experience the benefits. Avid corset wearers like to follow a regimen called waist training (or corseting, especially if you’re using the steel-boned corset). This is the constant practice of wearing a corset-style garment daily for at least 8 hours.</p><p>You can waist train with the under-bust steel-bone corset or a latex cincher, as you wish.

Don’t just throw on the garment on the day of the event. Break it in the same way you would a pair of shoes. Let it mold to your torso.</p><p>Only wear your corset for an hour or two for the first time; if it has a lace-up back, don’t pull the laces all the way tight. You can fully tighten the laces after the garment is seasoned and molded to your torso. (check after about two weeks of wearing it 1–2 hours a day).</p><p>Waist training with latex garments is a bit different when you’re first starting. Gradually increase the time you wear one each day.

You can alternate between garments, especially if you plan on wearing a workout waist trainer while you exercise.</p><p>Do not wear your corset for more than 12 hours a day. Your skin, spine, and core need a break from compression so they can rest and breathe.

Our inbox is spilling over the brim with questions regarding this particular fashion wear. Well, you have spoken, and we have listened as always. Let’s get right to it.</p><p>While some of the questions bother around the myths and curiosity about the corsets undergarments from earlier centuries (which are quite fascinating), other questions remain relevant even in today’s fashion world.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><strong>TABLE OF CONTENT</strong></p>\n<ul>\n 	<li><a href="#definition">Definition</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#history">Brief History</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#description">Description</a></li>\n</ul><p style="text-align: left;"><strong>TABLE OF CONTENT</strong></p>\n<ul>\n 	<li><a href="#work">How it works</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#body">What it does to your body type</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#practices">Best Practices</a></li>\n</ul><h5>What are Corsets?</h5><p>First, let’s be clear about what a corset is. A corset is a support garment usually worn to hold and train the torso into a desired shape. It can be worn as an undergarment or as an outer garment. It is worn to achieve the following effects: A smaller waist or larger bottom. For aesthetic or medical purposes (either for the duration of wearing it or with a more lasting effect). Support the breasts.</p><p>It is safe to say that every fashion ever designed takes its root or identity from the corset. Generally, corsets are wide belt-like garments that you wear around your midsection to slim the waist, flatten the tummy, and lift the bust. The term is used interchangeably with “girdle.” However, a girdle can come with a built-in pantry, while a corset generally does not.</p><p>Corsets come in a few different forms in modern times. The most popular is a waist cincher, also called a waist trainer. As you know, this garment provides slimming with latex panels that are pinned in place with closures at the front of the garment (such as hook-and-eyes, zippers, and Velcro).</p><p>But why the fascination with the Corset undergarments? Is it the ultimate garment in the shapewear fashion world? I already have a waist trainer; do I also need a corset? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Does the corset shift my organs? How can I maintain the Corset effect? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>These and more are some of the questions we have received on corsets.</p><h5>Brief History of Corset.</h5><p>For nearly 500 years, women\'s primary means of support was the corset, with laces and stayed made of whalebone or metal. Researchers have found evidence of the use of corsets in the Minoan civilization of early Crete. (Wikipedia)</p><p>The corset has evolved over the decades. At first, in the late 16th century, it was called "a pair of bodies". A simple bodice, stiffened with the boning of reed or whalebone, could be an under or outer dress. At the initial design, a busk made of wood, horn, whalebone, metal, or ivory also reinforced the central front. In the 16th and 17th centuries, the corset could be a front or back lacing.</p><p>In the late seventeenth century, the English term "pair of bodies" was changed to "stays," which was generally used during the 18th century. The term ‘stays’ was probably used to connote how restrictive though instantly shapely the garments were at the time. Stays drastically turned the upper torso into a cone or cylinder shape.</p><p>Stays or Corsets evolved again in the 18th century, during which whalebone for boning became a constant and, in fact, a reference for quality. This period also saw an increase in boning in the making of the garment.</p><p>The shape of the stays changed as well in this period. They were low and wide in the front; they could reach as high as the upper shoulder in the back. Stays were designed to be strapless or to use shoulder straps. These straps were generally attached in the back and tied at the front.</p><p>The purpose of 18th-century stays was not just for fashion but to support the bust and confer the preferred conical shape while pulling the shoulders back. The laces were spiral at this time. One end of the stay lace was inserted into the bottom eyelet and knotted, and the other end was wound through the eyelets of the stays and tightened on the top.</p><p>Tight-lacing was not the primary function of stays or corsets at that time. This function was not possible until metal eyelets were introduced in the mid-1800s. Women of all levels of society wore stays or corsets, from ladies of the court to street vendors.</p><p>The term corset was not introduced until the late 20th century; the fashion industry has borrowed the term "corset" to refer to tops which, to varying degrees, imitate the look of traditional corsets without their function.</p><p>On the other hand, these modern corsets and corset tops often feature lacing or boning and generally imitate a historical style of corsets. Authentic corsets are usually made by a corsetmaker and are fitted to the individual wearer.</p><p>There’s a reason the practice of wearing a corset has been around for hundreds of years. When it comes to creating feminine curves, corsets perform.</p><h5>Corset Description</h5><p style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://damidols.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Corset-Dispelling-the-Corset-Myths-1.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="667" /></p><p>The classic corset style, “steel-boned corset,” doesn’t use latex to compress to midsection; rather, it is designed with a lace-up back that is pulled tight. The bodice is constructed with satin, cotton, or even mesh, with flexible steel boning to keep it in place.</p><p>Also, note that different forms of corsets can come in either underbust or overbust styles. Overbust styles are used for costuming and sometimes in formal/bridal attire. In contrast, underbust styles are useful for everyday corset wear and slimming effect pursuits.</p><p>There is some confusion because a lot of these terms for corsets are constantly used loosely and interchangeably. For this article, we’ll mainly refer to the underbust steel-boned corset, which is the classic style used for corseting as described above. Plus, we’ll also refer to latex cinchers and vests when relevant.</p><p>Modern-day corsets look a little different, but they function the same. Having said that, since not everyone wears them anymore, there are a lot of misconceptions or myths out there about what corsets CAN and CAN’T do.</p><p>Now we have a general understanding of a Corset, Let’s dispel some of the myths. Here’s the truth about what a corset can do to your body.</p><h5>How Does Corseting Work?</h5><p>Now that we’re clear on what a corset is let’s talk about how one works. When you wear any corset style and fasten it very tight, you’d experience the instant effect of it slimming your midsection. This is why some people prefer to use corset-style garments for special occasions or certain attires.</p><p>However, this is not the only way to experience the benefits. Avid corset wearers like to follow a regimen called waist training (or corseting, especially if you’re using the steel-boned corset). This is the constant practice of wearing a corset-style garment daily for at least 8 hours.</p><p>You can waist train with the under-bust steel-bone corset or a latex cincher, as you wish. The purpose is to provide slimming support every day. Remember to combine this regime with a healthy lifestyle and diet to support your long-term slimming goals.</p><p>There are various ways this works:</p><p>The waist training via corsets works by stimulating heat and sweat in your core. This is especially helpful when working out, which is why workout waist trainers are popular among our clients.</p><p>A corset in combination with other effects works together to help you reach your goals. It supports your posture and poise, plus helping your clothes fit better. These seemingly simple effects improve your self-confidence and keep you motivated to stick to your healthy lifestyle.</p><p>In addition, you are reminded to keep your portions small since your waistline won’t be able to expand as much when under tight compression.</p><p>Pro-Tip: Do not compare your corseting experience with that of others. Everyone’s experience is a little different when it comes to corseting results. It all depends on your mindset, body type, goals, lifestyle, and commitment to the practice.</p><h5>So What Exactly Does a Corset do to Your Body?</h5><p>As stated earlier, there are many misconceptions and myths about the question of what a corset is, is not, or what it does to your body? Does it hurt anything? Does it shift your organs? Does it<br />cause permanent change? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>A corset can be an amazing asset for your figure if you wear it properly. That is what it\'s designed to do: instantly slim your midsection to give you well-defined hourglass curves.</p><p><strong>What about prolonged use?</strong></p><p>Suppose you wear a corset as part of a corseting routine (8–12 hours a day). In that case, a properly-fitting corset only provides compression around your midsection, resulting in increased heat and sweat. It also corrects your posture in a straighter position for the duration.</p><p>****Any discomfort or pain while wearing a corset signifies that the garment does not fit properly; remove it immediately. You may experience heat while wearing one, especially during an intense workout or in a warmer climate. Again, we recommend removing your corset if you experience too much discomfort.</p><p>Another concern or myth is whether a corset “shifts” or “moves” your organs. This is a tricky question because your organs are perfectly fine if they move around a bit. They are soft tissue (not glued to a spot), and that is completely normal.</p><p>Also, they shift (quite often) when you eat a large meal, go for a run or jogging, have a full bladder, drink a lot of water, or are pregnant. That doesn’t mean they are going to go gyrating out of place.</p><p>Compression from any corset is naturally going to put some gentle pressure on your midsection (that’s how it works). The biggest effect you’ll notice is that you feel constricted to eat a large meal. Your stomach won’t be able to expand otherwise. This proves to be helpful to limit your portion sizes for weight loss!</p><p>As far as the myth on permanent changes goes, a corset does not cause any permanent changes on its own. Once you take a corset off, your midsection is going to revert to its natural shape.</p><p>Having that in mind, in the long-term, if you combine wearing the corset with a healthy lifestyle like regular exercise, a positive mindset, and a nutritious diet, you may begin to see changes in your curves. But the alone corset is not going to transform your body permanently into something it’s not.</p><h5>Our Corseting Best Practices</h5><p>Now that we have a broad foundation for corsets, it’s important to use a corset as directed.</p><p>First, do not rush your waist training regimen.

Our inbox is spilling over the brim with questions regarding this particular fashion wear. Well, you have spoken, and we have listened as always. Let’s get right to it.</p><p>While some of the questions bother around the myths and curiosity about the corsets undergarments from earlier centuries (which are quite fascinating), other questions remain relevant even in today’s fashion world.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><strong>TABLE OF CONTENT</strong></p>\n<ul>\n 	<li><a href="#definition">Definition</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#history">Brief History</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#description">Description</a></li>\n</ul><p style="text-align: left;"> </p><ul><li><a href="#work">How it works</a></li><li><a href="#body">What it does to your body type</a></li><li><a href="#practices">Best Practices</a></li></ul><h5>What are Corsets?</h5><p>First, let’s be clear about what a corset is. A corset is a support garment usually worn to hold and train the torso into a desired shape. It can be worn as an undergarment or as an outer garment. It is worn to achieve the following effects: A smaller waist or larger bottom. For aesthetic or medical purposes (either for the duration of wearing it or with a more lasting effect). Support the breasts.</p><p>It is safe to say that every fashion ever designed takes its root or identity from the corset. Generally, corsets are wide belt-like garments that you wear around your midsection to slim the waist, flatten the tummy, and lift the bust. The term is used interchangeably with “girdle.” However, a girdle can come with a built-in pantry, while a corset generally does not.</p><p>Corsets come in a few different forms in modern times. The most popular is a waist cincher, also called a waist trainer. As you know, this garment provides slimming with latex panels that are pinned in place with closures at the front of the garment (such as hook-and-eyes, zippers, and Velcro).</p><p>But why the fascination with the Corset undergarments? Is it the ultimate garment in the shapewear fashion world? I already have a waist trainer; do I also need a corset? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Does the corset shift my organs? How can I maintain the Corset effect? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>These and more are some of the questions we have received on corsets.</p><h5>Brief History of Corset.</h5><p>For nearly 500 years, women\'s primary means of support was the corset, with laces and stayed made of whalebone or metal. Researchers have found evidence of the use of corsets in the Minoan civilization of early Crete. (Wikipedia)</p><p>The corset has evolved over the decades. At first, in the late 16th century, it was called "a pair of bodies". A simple bodice, stiffened with the boning of reed or whalebone, could be an under or outer dress. At the initial design, a busk made of wood, horn, whalebone, metal, or ivory also reinforced the central front. In the 16th and 17th centuries, the corset could be a front or back lacing.</p><p>In the late seventeenth century, the English term "pair of bodies" was changed to "stays," which was generally used during the 18th century. The term ‘stays’ was probably used to connote how restrictive though instantly shapely the garments were at the time. Stays drastically turned the upper torso into a cone or cylinder shape.</p><p>Stays or Corsets evolved again in the 18th century, during which whalebone for boning became a constant and, in fact, a reference for quality. This period also saw an increase in boning in the making of the garment.</p><p>The shape of the stays changed as well in this period. They were low and wide in the front; they could reach as high as the upper shoulder in the back. Stays were designed to be strapless or to use shoulder straps. These straps were generally attached in the back and tied at the front.</p><p>The purpose of 18th-century stays was not just for fashion but to support the bust and confer the preferred conical shape while pulling the shoulders back. The laces were spiral at this time. One end of the stay lace was inserted into the bottom eyelet and knotted, and the other end was wound through the eyelets of the stays and tightened on the top.</p><p>Tight-lacing was not the primary function of stays or corsets at that time. This function was not possible until metal eyelets were introduced in the mid-1800s. Women of all levels of society wore stays or corsets, from ladies of the court to street vendors.</p><p>The term corset was not introduced until the late 20th century; the fashion industry has borrowed the term "corset" to refer to tops which, to varying degrees, imitate the look of traditional corsets without their function.</p><p>On the other hand, these modern corsets and corset tops often feature lacing or boning and generally imitate a historical style of corsets. Authentic corsets are usually made by a corsetmaker and are fitted to the individual wearer.</p><p>There’s a reason the practice of wearing a corset has been around for hundreds of years. When it comes to creating feminine curves, corsets perform.</p><h5>Corset Description</h5><p style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://damidols.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Corset-Dispelling-the-Corset-Myths-1.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="667" /></p><p>The classic corset style, “steel-boned corset,” doesn’t use latex to compress to midsection; rather, it is designed with a lace-up back that is pulled tight. The bodice is constructed with satin, cotton, or even mesh, with flexible steel boning to keep it in place.</p><p>Also, note that different forms of corsets can come in either underbust or overbust styles. Overbust styles are used for costuming and sometimes in formal/bridal attire. In contrast, underbust styles are useful for everyday corset wear and slimming effect pursuits.</p><p>There is some confusion because a lot of these terms for corsets are constantly used loosely and interchangeably. For this article, we’ll mainly refer to the underbust steel-boned corset, which is the classic style used for corseting as described above. Plus, we’ll also refer to latex cinchers and vests when relevant.</p><p>Modern-day corsets look a little different, but they function the same. Having said that, since not everyone wears them anymore, there are a lot of misconceptions or myths out there about what corsets CAN and CAN’T do.</p><p>Now we have a general understanding of a Corset, Let’s dispel some of the myths. Here’s the truth about what a corset can do to your body.</p><h5>How Does Corseting Work?</h5><p>Now that we’re clear on what a corset is let’s talk about how one works. When you wear any corset style and fasten it very tight, you’d experience the instant effect of it slimming your midsection. This is why some people prefer to use corset-style garments for special occasions or certain attires.</p><p>However, this is not the only way to experience the benefits. Avid corset wearers like to follow a regimen called waist training (or corseting, especially if you’re using the steel-boned corset). This is the constant practice of wearing a corset-style garment daily for at least 8 hours.</p><p>You can waist train with the under-bust steel-bone corset or a latex cincher, as you wish. The purpose is to provide slimming support every day. Remember to combine this regime with a healthy lifestyle and diet to support your long-term slimming goals.</p><p>There are various ways this works:</p><p>The waist training via corsets works by stimulating heat and sweat in your core. This is especially helpful when working out, which is why workout waist trainers are popular among our clients.</p><p>A corset in combination with other effects works together to help you reach your goals. It supports your posture and poise, plus helping your clothes fit better. These seemingly simple effects improve your self-confidence and keep you motivated to stick to your healthy lifestyle.</p><p>In addition, you are reminded to keep your portions small since your waistline won’t be able to expand as much when under tight compression.</p><p>Pro-Tip: Do not compare your corseting experience with that of others. Everyone’s experience is a little different when it comes to corseting results. It all depends on your mindset, body type, goals, lifestyle, and commitment to the practice.</p><h5>So What Exactly Does a Corset do to Your Body?</h5><p>As stated earlier, there are many misconceptions and myths about the question of what a corset is, is not, or what it does to your body? Does it hurt anything? Does it shift your organs? Does it<br />cause permanent change? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>A corset can be an amazing asset for your figure if you wear it properly. That is what it\'s designed to do: instantly slim your midsection to give you well-defined hourglass curves.</p><p><strong>What about prolonged use?</strong></p><p>Suppose you wear a corset as part of a corseting routine (8–12 hours a day). In that case, a properly-fitting corset only provides compression around your midsection, resulting in increased heat and sweat. It also corrects your posture in a straighter position for the duration.</p><p>****Any discomfort or pain while wearing a corset signifies that the garment does not fit properly; remove it immediately. You may experience heat while wearing one, especially during an intense workout or in a warmer climate. Again, we recommend removing your corset if you experience too much discomfort.</p><p>Another concern or myth is whether a corset “shifts” or “moves” your organs. This is a tricky question because your organs are perfectly fine if they move around a bit. They are soft tissue (not glued to a spot), and that is completely normal.</p><p>Also, they shift (quite often) when you eat a large meal, go for a run or jogging, have a full bladder, drink a lot of water, or are pregnant. That doesn’t mean they are going to go gyrating out of place.</p><p>Compression from any corset is naturally going to put some gentle pressure on your midsection (that’s how it works). The biggest effect you’ll notice is that you feel constricted to eat a large meal. Your stomach won’t be able to expand otherwise. This proves to be helpful to limit your portion sizes for weight loss!</p><p>As far as the myth on permanent changes goes, a corset does not cause any permanent changes on its own. Once you take a corset off, your midsection is going to revert to its natural shape.</p><p>Having that in mind, in the long-term, if you combine wearing the corset with a healthy lifestyle like regular exercise, a positive mindset, and a nutritious diet, you may begin to see changes in your curves. But the alone corset is not going to transform your body permanently into something it’s not.</p><h5>Our Corseting Best Practices</h5><p>Now that we have a broad foundation for corsets, it’s important to use a corset as directed.</p><p>First, do not rush your waist training regimen. If you’re practicing regular waist training, start with shorter increments. Allow time for your body to adjust; If your corset is steel boned, it also needs time to break in.</p><p>Keep this tip in mind if you plan on wearing a corset for a special event. Don’t just throw on the garment on the day of the event. Break it in the same way you would a pair of shoes. Let it mold to your torso.</p><p>Only wear your corset for an hour or two for the first time; if it has a lace-up back, don’t pull the laces all the way tight. You can fully tighten the laces after the garment is seasoned and molded to your torso. (check after about two weeks of wearing it 1–2 hours a day).</p><p>Waist training with latex garments is a bit different when you’re first starting. Gradually increase the time you wear one each day. After a few weeks, you should be comfortable wearing it most of the day.</p><p>The goal is to wear a corset for at least 8 hours a day plus the right lifestyle changes to get the best results for waist training. You can alternate between garments, especially if you plan on wearing a workout waist trainer while you exercise.</p><p>Do not wear your corset for more than 12 hours a day. Your skin, spine, and core need a break from compression so they can rest and breathe. The same thing, if you wear the same corset every day, it needs a break too.</p><p>Lay your corset on a hanger in a well-ventilated area (not in direct sunlight) so that it can air out and retain its shape.</p><p><strong>Any Other Questions, Concerns, or Myths?</strong></p><p>***As fashion trends continue to evolve, it is clear that there’s a lot to learn regarding waist training and corseting. Also, more myths will be busted, but whatever your style preference, always seek accurate information on the garment before investing in them.</p><p>With all the information you now have about corsets, you can go ahead and make an informed decision whether to add this garment to your collection or not.</p><p>Finally, your choice will depend on your needs and goals. Remember to maintain a healthier lifestyle and make the correct changes to enjoy the long-term benefits of the corset.</p><p>It is always a pleasure to see your transformations plus; we are happy to help with all of your questions and concerns.

As you know, this garment provides slimming with latex panels that are pinned in place with closures at the front of the garment (such as hook-and-eyes, zippers, and Velcro).</p><p>But why the fascination with the Corset undergarments? Is it the ultimate garment in the shapewear fashion world? I already have a waist trainer; do I also need a corset? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Does the corset shift my organs? How can I maintain the Corset effect? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>These and more are some of the questions we have received on corsets.</p><h5>Brief History of Corset.</h5><p>For nearly 500 years, women\'s primary means of support was the corset, with laces and stayed made of whalebone or metal. Researchers have found evidence of the use of corsets in the Minoan civilization of early Crete. (Wikipedia)</p><p>The corset has evolved over the decades. At first, in the late 16th century, it was called "a pair of bodies". A simple bodice, stiffened with the boning of reed or whalebone, could be an under or outer dress. At the initial design, a busk made of wood, horn, whalebone, metal, or ivory also reinforced the central front. In the 16th and 17th centuries, the corset could be a front or back lacing.</p><p>In the late seventeenth century, the English term "pair of bodies" was changed to "stays," which was generally used during the 18th century. The term ‘stays’ was probably used to connote how restrictive though instantly shapely the garments were at the time. Stays drastically turned the upper torso into a cone or cylinder shape.</p><p>Stays or Corsets evolved again in the 18th century, during which whalebone for boning became a constant and, in fact, a reference for quality. This period also saw an increase in boning in the making of the garment.</p><p>The shape of the stays changed as well in this period. They were low and wide in the front; they could reach as high as the upper shoulder in the back. Stays were designed to be strapless or to use shoulder straps. These straps were generally attached in the back and tied at the front.</p><p>The purpose of 18th-century stays was not just for fashion but to support the bust and confer the preferred conical shape while pulling the shoulders back. The laces were spiral at this time. One end of the stay lace was inserted into the bottom eyelet and knotted, and the other end was wound through the eyelets of the stays and tightened on the top.</p><p>Tight-lacing was not the primary function of stays or corsets at that time. This function was not possible until metal eyelets were introduced in the mid-1800s. Women of all levels of society wore stays or corsets, from ladies of the court to street vendors.</p><p>The term corset was not introduced until the late 20th century; the fashion industry has borrowed the term "corset" to refer to tops which, to varying degrees, imitate the look of traditional corsets without their function.</p><p>On the other hand, these modern corsets and corset tops often feature lacing or boning and generally imitate a historical style of corsets. Authentic corsets are usually made by a corsetmaker and are fitted to the individual wearer.</p><p>There’s a reason the practice of wearing a corset has been around for hundreds of years. When it comes to creating feminine curves, corsets perform.</p><h5>Corset Description</h5><p style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://damidols.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Corset-Dispelling-the-Corset-Myths-1.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="667" /></p><p>The classic corset style, “steel-boned corset,” doesn’t use latex to compress to midsection; rather, it is designed with a lace-up back that is pulled tight. The bodice is constructed with satin, cotton, or even mesh, with flexible steel boning to keep it in place.</p><p>Also, note that different forms of corsets can come in either underbust or overbust styles. Overbust styles are used for costuming and sometimes in formal/bridal attire. In contrast, underbust styles are useful for everyday corset wear and slimming effect pursuits.</p><p>There is some confusion because a lot of these terms for corsets are constantly used loosely and interchangeably. For this article, we’ll mainly refer to the underbust steel-boned corset, which is the classic style used for corseting as described above. Plus, we’ll also refer to latex cinchers and vests when relevant.</p><p>Modern-day corsets look a little different, but they function the same. Having said that, since not everyone wears them anymore, there are a lot of misconceptions or myths out there about what corsets CAN and CAN’T do.</p><p>Now we have a general understanding of a Corset, Let’s dispel some of the myths. Here’s the truth about what a corset can do to your body.</p><h5>How Does Corseting Work?</h5><p>Now that we’re clear on what a corset is let’s talk about how one works. When you wear any corset style and fasten it very tight, you’d experience the instant effect of it slimming your midsection. This is why some people prefer to use corset-style garments for special occasions or certain attires.</p><p>However, this is not the only way to experience the benefits. Avid corset wearers like to follow a regimen called waist training (or corseting, especially if you’re using the steel-boned corset). This is the constant practice of wearing a corset-style garment daily for at least 8 hours.</p><p>You can waist train with the under-bust steel-bone corset or a latex cincher, as you wish. The purpose is to provide slimming support every day. Remember to combine this regime with a healthy lifestyle and diet to support your long-term slimming goals.</p><p>There are various ways this works:</p><p>The waist training via corsets works by stimulating heat and sweat in your core. This is especially helpful when working out, which is why workout waist trainers are popular among our clients.</p><p>A corset in combination with other effects works together to help you reach your goals. It supports your posture and poise, plus helping your clothes fit better. These seemingly simple effects improve your self-confidence and keep you motivated to stick to your healthy lifestyle.</p><p>In addition, you are reminded to keep your portions small since your waistline won’t be able to expand as much when under tight compression.</p><p>Pro-Tip: Do not compare your corseting experience with that of others. Everyone’s experience is a little different when it comes to corseting results. It all depends on your mindset, body type, goals, lifestyle, and commitment to the practice.</p><h5>So What Exactly Does a Corset do to Your Body?</h5><p>As stated earlier, there are many misconceptions and myths about the question of what a corset is, is not, or what it does to your body? Does it hurt anything? Does it shift your organs? Does it<br />cause permanent change? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>A corset can be an amazing asset for your figure if you wear it properly. That is what it\'s designed to do: instantly slim your midsection to give you well-defined hourglass curves.</p><p><strong>What about prolonged use?</strong></p><p>Suppose you wear a corset as part of a corseting routine (8–12 hours a day). In that case, a properly-fitting corset only provides compression around your midsection, resulting in increased heat and sweat. It also corrects your posture in a straighter position for the duration.</p><p>****Any discomfort or pain while wearing a corset signifies that the garment does not fit properly; remove it immediately. You may experience heat while wearing one, especially during an intense workout or in a warmer climate. Again, we recommend removing your corset if you experience too much discomfort.</p><p>Another concern or myth is whether a corset “shifts” or “moves” your organs. This is a tricky question because your organs are perfectly fine if they move around a bit. They are soft tissue (not glued to a spot), and that is completely normal.</p><p>Also, they shift (quite often) when you eat a large meal, go for a run or jogging, have a full bladder, drink a lot of water, or are pregnant. That doesn’t mean they are going to go gyrating out of place.</p><p>Compression from any corset is naturally going to put some gentle pressure on your midsection (that’s how it works). The biggest effect you’ll notice is that you feel constricted to eat a large meal. Your stomach won’t be able to expand otherwise. This proves to be helpful to limit your portion sizes for weight loss!</p><p>As far as the myth on permanent changes goes, a corset does not cause any permanent changes on its own. Once you take a corset off, your midsection is going to revert to its natural shape.</p><p>Having that in mind, in the long-term, if you combine wearing the corset with a healthy lifestyle like regular exercise, a positive mindset, and a nutritious diet, you may begin to see changes in your curves. But the alone corset is not going to transform your body permanently into something it’s not.</p><h5>Our Corseting Best Practices</h5><p>Now that we have a broad foundation for corsets, it’s important to use a corset as directed.</p><p>First, do not rush your waist training regimen. If you’re practicing regular waist training, start with shorter increments. Allow time for your body to adjust; If your corset is steel boned, it also needs time to break in.</p><p>Keep this tip in mind if you plan on wearing a corset for a special event. Don’t just throw on the garment on the day of the event. Break it in the same way you would a pair of shoes. Let it mold to your torso.</p><p>Only wear your corset for an hour or two for the first time; if it has a lace-up back, don’t pull the laces all the way tight. You can fully tighten the laces after the garment is seasoned and molded to your torso. (check after about two weeks of wearing it 1–2 hours a day).</p><p>Waist training with latex garments is a bit different when you’re first starting. Gradually increase the time you wear one each day. After a few weeks, you should be comfortable wearing it most of the day.</p><p>The goal is to wear a corset for at least 8 hours a day plus the right lifestyle changes to get the best results for waist training. You can alternate between garments, especially if you plan on wearing a workout waist trainer while you exercise.</p><p>Do not wear your corset for more than 12 hours a day. Your skin, spine, and core need a break from compression so they can rest and breathe. The same thing, if you wear the same corset every day, it needs a break too.</p><p>Lay your corset on a hanger in a well-ventilated area (not in direct sunlight) so that it can air out and retain its shape.</p><p><strong>Any Other Questions, Concerns, or Myths?</strong></p><p>***As fashion trends continue to evolve, it is clear that there’s a lot to learn regarding waist training and corseting. Also, more myths will be busted, but whatever your style preference, always seek accurate information on the garment before investing in them.</p><p>With all the information you now have about corsets, you can go ahead and make an informed decision whether to add this garment to your collection or not.</p><p>Finally, your choice will depend on your needs and goals. Remember to maintain a healthier lifestyle and make the correct changes to enjoy the long-term benefits of the corset.</p><p>It is always a pleasure to see your transformations plus; we are happy to help with all of your questions and concerns.

The bodice is constructed with satin, cotton, or even mesh, with flexible steel boning to keep it in place.</p><p>Also, note that different forms of corsets can come in either underbust or overbust styles. Overbust styles are used for costuming and sometimes in formal/bridal attire.

For this article, we’ll mainly refer to the underbust steel-boned corset, which is the classic style used for corseting as described above.

Having said that, since not everyone wears them anymore, there are a lot of misconceptions or myths out there about what corsets CAN and CAN’T do.</p><p>Now we have a general understanding of a Corset, Let’s dispel some of the myths. Here’s the truth about what a corset can do to your body.</p><h5>How Does Corseting Work?</h5><p>Now that we’re clear on what a corset is let’s talk about how one works. When you wear any corset style and fasten it very tight, you’d experience the instant effect of it slimming your midsection. This is why some people prefer to use corset-style garments for special occasions or certain attires.</p><p>However, this is not the only way to experience the benefits. Avid corset wearers like to follow a regimen called waist training (or corseting, especially if you’re using the steel-boned corset). This is the constant practice of wearing a corset-style garment daily for at least 8 hours.</p><p>You can waist train with the under-bust steel-bone corset or a latex cincher, as you wish. The purpose is to provide slimming support every day. Remember to combine this regime with a healthy lifestyle and diet to support your long-term slimming goals.</p><p>There are various ways this works:</p><p>The waist training via corsets works by stimulating heat and sweat in your core. This is especially helpful when working out, which is why workout waist trainers are popular among our clients.</p><p>A corset in combination with other effects works together to help you reach your goals. It supports your posture and poise, plus helping your clothes fit better. These seemingly simple effects improve your self-confidence and keep you motivated to stick to your healthy lifestyle.</p><p>In addition, you are reminded to keep your portions small since your waistline won’t be able to expand as much when under tight compression.</p><p>Pro-Tip: Do not compare your corseting experience with that of others. Everyone’s experience is a little different when it comes to corseting results. It all depends on your mindset, body type, goals, lifestyle, and commitment to the practice.</p><h5>So What Exactly Does a Corset do to Your Body?</h5><p>As stated earlier, there are many misconceptions and myths about the question of what a corset is, is not, or what it does to your body? Does it hurt anything? Does it shift your organs? Does it<br />cause permanent change? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>A corset can be an amazing asset for your figure if you wear it properly. That is what it\'s designed to do: instantly slim your midsection to give you well-defined hourglass curves.</p><p><strong>What about prolonged use?</strong></p><p>Suppose you wear a corset as part of a corseting routine (8–12 hours a day). In that case, a properly-fitting corset only provides compression around your midsection, resulting in increased heat and sweat. It also corrects your posture in a straighter position for the duration.</p><p>****Any discomfort or pain while wearing a corset signifies that the garment does not fit properly; remove it immediately. You may experience heat while wearing one, especially during an intense workout or in a warmer climate. Again, we recommend removing your corset if you experience too much discomfort.</p><p>Another concern or myth is whether a corset “shifts” or “moves” your organs. This is a tricky question because your organs are perfectly fine if they move around a bit. They are soft tissue (not glued to a spot), and that is completely normal.</p><p>Also, they shift (quite often) when you eat a large meal, go for a run or jogging, have a full bladder, drink a lot of water, or are pregnant. That doesn’t mean they are going to go gyrating out of place.</p><p>Compression from any corset is naturally going to put some gentle pressure on your midsection (that’s how it works). The biggest effect you’ll notice is that you feel constricted to eat a large meal. Your stomach won’t be able to expand otherwise. This proves to be helpful to limit your portion sizes for weight loss!</p><p>As far as the myth on permanent changes goes, a corset does not cause any permanent changes on its own. Once you take a corset off, your midsection is going to revert to its natural shape.</p><p>Having that in mind, in the long-term, if you combine wearing the corset with a healthy lifestyle like regular exercise, a positive mindset, and a nutritious diet, you may begin to see changes in your curves. But the alone corset is not going to transform your body permanently into something it’s not.</p><h5>Our Corseting Best Practices</h5><p>Now that we have a broad foundation for corsets, it’s important to use a corset as directed.</p><p>First, do not rush your waist training regimen. If you’re practicing regular waist training, start with shorter increments. Allow time for your body to adjust; If your corset is steel boned, it also needs time to break in.</p><p>Keep this tip in mind if you plan on wearing a corset for a special event. Don’t just throw on the garment on the day of the event. Break it in the same way you would a pair of shoes. Let it mold to your torso.</p><p>Only wear your corset for an hour or two for the first time; if it has a lace-up back, don’t pull the laces all the way tight. You can fully tighten the laces after the garment is seasoned and molded to your torso. (check after about two weeks of wearing it 1–2 hours a day).</p><p>Waist training with latex garments is a bit different when you’re first starting. Gradually increase the time you wear one each day. After a few weeks, you should be comfortable wearing it most of the day.</p><p>The goal is to wear a corset for at least 8 hours a day plus the right lifestyle changes to get the best results for waist training. You can alternate between garments, especially if you plan on wearing a workout waist trainer while you exercise.</p><p>Do not wear your corset for more than 12 hours a day. Your skin, spine, and core need a break from compression so they can rest and breathe. The same thing, if you wear the same corset every day, it needs a break too.</p><p>Lay your corset on a hanger in a well-ventilated area (not in direct sunlight) so that it can air out and retain its shape.</p><p><strong>Any Other Questions, Concerns, or Myths?</strong></p><p>***As fashion trends continue to evolve, it is clear that there’s a lot to learn regarding waist training and corseting. Also, more myths will be busted, but whatever your style preference, always seek accurate information on the garment before investing in them.</p><p>With all the information you now have about corsets, you can go ahead and make an informed decision whether to add this garment to your collection or not.</p><p>Finally, your choice will depend on your needs and goals. Remember to maintain a healthier lifestyle and make the correct changes to enjoy the long-term benefits of the corset.</p><p>It is always a pleasure to see your transformations plus; we are happy to help with all of your questions and concerns.

Our inbox is spilling over the brim with questions regarding this particular fashion wear. Well, you have spoken, and we have listened as always. Let’s get right to it.</p><p>While some of the questions bother around the myths and curiosity about the corsets undergarments from earlier centuries (which are quite fascinating), other questions remain relevant even in today’s fashion world.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><strong>TABLE OF CONTENT</strong></p>\n<ul>\n 	<li><a href="#definition">Definition</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#history">Brief History</a></li>\n 	<li><a href="#description">Description</a></li>\n</ul><p style="text-align: left;"> </p><ul><li><a href="#work">How it works</a></li><li><a href="#body">What it does to your body type</a></li><li><a href="#practices">Best Practices</a></li></ul><h5>What are Corsets?</h5><p>First, let’s be clear about what a corset is. A corset is a support garment usually worn to hold and train the torso into a desired shape. It can be worn as an undergarment or as an outer garment. It is worn to achieve the following effects: A smaller waist or larger bottom. For aesthetic or medical purposes (either for the duration of wearing it or with a more lasting effect). Support the breasts.</p><p>It is safe to say that every fashion ever designed takes its root or identity from the corset. Generally, corsets are wide belt-like garments that you wear around your midsection to slim the waist, flatten the tummy, and lift the bust. The term is used interchangeably with “girdle.” However, a girdle can come with a built-in pantry, while a corset generally does not.</p><p>Corsets come in a few different forms in modern times. The most popular is a waist cincher, also called a waist trainer. As you know, this garment provides slimming with latex panels that are pinned in place with closures at the front of the garment (such as hook-and-eyes, zippers, and Velcro).</p><p>But why the fascination with the Corset undergarments? Is it the ultimate garment in the shapewear fashion world? I already have a waist trainer; do I also need a corset? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Does the corset shift my organs? How can I maintain the Corset effect? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>These and more are some of the questions we have received on corsets.</p><h5>Brief History of Corset.</h5><p>For nearly 500 years, women\'s primary means of support was the corset, with laces and stayed made of whalebone or metal. Researchers have found evidence of the use of corsets in the Minoan civilization of early Crete. (Wikipedia)</p><p>The corset has evolved over the decades. At first, in the late 16th century, it was called "a pair of bodies". A simple bodice, stiffened with the boning of reed or whalebone, could be an under or outer dress. At the initial design, a busk made of wood, horn, whalebone, metal, or ivory also reinforced the central front. In the 16th and 17th centuries, the corset could be a front or back lacing.</p><p>In the late seventeenth century, the English term "pair of bodies" was changed to "stays," which was generally used during the 18th century. The term ‘stays’ was probably used to connote how restrictive though instantly shapely the garments were at the time. Stays drastically turned the upper torso into a cone or cylinder shape.</p><p>Stays or Corsets evolved again in the 18th century, during which whalebone for boning became a constant and, in fact, a reference for quality. This period also saw an increase in boning in the making of the garment.</p><p>The shape of the stays changed as well in this period. They were low and wide in the front; they could reach as high as the upper shoulder in the back. Stays were designed to be strapless or to use shoulder straps. These straps were generally attached in the back and tied at the front.</p><p>The purpose of 18th-century stays was not just for fashion but to support the bust and confer the preferred conical shape while pulling the shoulders back. The laces were spiral at this time. One end of the stay lace was inserted into the bottom eyelet and knotted, and the other end was wound through the eyelets of the stays and tightened on the top.</p><p>Tight-lacing was not the primary function of stays or corsets at that time. This function was not possible until metal eyelets were introduced in the mid-1800s. Women of all levels of society wore stays or corsets, from ladies of the court to street vendors.</p><p>The term corset was not introduced until the late 20th century; the fashion industry has borrowed the term "corset" to refer to tops which, to varying degrees, imitate the look of traditional corsets without their function.</p><p>On the other hand, these modern corsets and corset tops often feature lacing or boning and generally imitate a historical style of corsets.

These seemingly simple effects improve your self-confidence and keep you motivated to stick to your healthy lifestyle.</p><p>In addition, you are reminded to keep your portions small since your waistline won’t be able to expand as much when under tight compression.</p><p>Pro-Tip: Do not compare your corseting experience with that of others. Everyone’s experience is a little different when it comes to corseting results. It all depends on your mindset, body type, goals, lifestyle, and commitment to the practice.</p><h5>So What Exactly Does a Corset do to Your Body?</h5><p>As stated earlier, there are many misconceptions and myths about the question of what a corset is, is not, or what it does to your body? Does it hurt anything? Does it shift your organs? Does it<br />cause permanent change? Is the corset effect permanent? Is wearing the corset injurious to my internal organs? Can I wear the corset with all kinds of dresses?</p><p>A corset can be an amazing asset for your figure if you wear it properly. That is what it\'s designed to do: instantly slim your midsection to give you well-defined hourglass curves.</p><p><strong>What about prolonged use?</strong></p><p>Suppose you wear a corset as part of a corseting routine (8–12 hours a day). In that case, a properly-fitting corset only provides compression around your midsection, resulting in increased heat and sweat. It also corrects your posture in a straighter position for the duration.</p><p>****Any discomfort or pain while wearing a corset signifies that the garment does not fit properly; remove it immediately. You may experience heat while wearing one, especially during an intense workout or in a warmer climate. Again, we recommend removing your corset if you experience too much discomfort.</p><p>Another concern or myth is whether a corset “shifts” or “moves” your organs. This is a tricky question because your organs are perfectly fine if they move around a bit. They are soft tissue (not glued to a spot), and that is completely normal.</p><p>Also, they shift (quite often) when you eat a large meal, go for a run or jogging, have a full bladder, drink a lot of water, or are pregnant. That doesn’t mean they are going to go gyrating out of place.</p><p>Compression from any corset is naturally going to put some gentle pressure on your midsection (that’s how it works). The biggest effect you’ll notice is that you feel constricted to eat a large meal. Your stomach won’t be able to expand otherwise. This proves to be helpful to limit your portion sizes for weight loss!</p><p>As far as the myth on permanent changes goes, a corset does not cause any permanent changes on its own. Once you take a corset off, your midsection is going to revert to its natural shape.</p><p>Having that in mind, in the long-term, if you combine wearing the corset with a healthy lifestyle like regular exercise, a positive mindset, and a nutritious diet, you may begin to see changes in your curves. But the corset  alone is not going to transform your body permanently into something it’s not.</p><h5>Our Corseting Best Practices</h5><p>Now that we have a broad foundation for corsets, it’s important to use a corset as directed.</p><p>First, do not rush your waist training regimen. If you’re practicing regular waist training, start with shorter increments. Allow time for your body to adjust; If your corset is steel boned, it also needs time to break in.</p><p>Keep this tip in mind if you plan on wearing a corset for a special event. Don’t just throw on the garment on the day of the event. Break it in the same way you would a pair of shoes. Let it mold to your torso.</p><p>Only wear your corset for an hour or two for the first time; if it has a lace-up back, don’t pull the laces all the way tight. You can fully tighten the laces after the garment is seasoned and molded to your torso. (check after about two weeks of wearing it 1–2 hours a day).</p><p>Waist training with latex garments is a bit different when you’re first starting. Gradually increase the time you wear one each day. After a few weeks, you should be comfortable wearing it most of the day.</p><p>The goal is to wear a corset for at least 8 hours a day plus the right lifestyle changes to get the best results for waist training. You can alternate between garments, especially if you plan on wearing a workout waist trainer while you exercise.</p><p>Do not wear your corset for more than 12 hours a day. Your skin, spine, and core need a break from compression so they can rest and breathe. The same thing, if you wear the same corset every day, it needs a break too.</p><p>Lay your corset on a hanger in a well-ventilated area (not in direct sunlight) so that it can air out and retain its shape.</p><p><strong>Any Other Questions, Concerns, or Myths?</strong></p><p>***As fashion trends continue to evolve, it is clear that there’s a lot to learn regarding waist training and corseting. Also, more myths will be busted, but whatever your style preference, always seek accurate information on the garment before investing in them.</p><p>With all the information you now have about corsets, you can go ahead and make an informed decision whether to add this garment to your collection or not.</p><p>Finally, your choice will depend on your needs and goals. Remember to maintain a healthier lifestyle and make the correct changes to enjoy the long-term benefits of the corset.</p><p>It is always a pleasure to see your transformations plus; we are happy to help with all of your questions and concerns.
