All our corsets come in sizes 22 - 40 inches (natural waist measurement), rising in 2 inch measurements, and should therefore be ordered 3 - 4 inches below your natural waist measurement.
Please use the following information as your guide to purchasing the correct size.
To take your waist measurement correctly you should measure in inches.
(1) Measure around the narrowest part of the waist. Men should measure the narrowist part of their trunk for an accurate waist measurement, not the part of their body where their trousers/jeans fit.
(2) Measure around the fullest part of the bust.
(3) Measure around the top of your hip bones.
Please make sure you do not pull the measuring tape too tightly and always measure yourself 2 or 3 times to make sure of complete accuracy.

It is recomended if you are new to wearing a corset or waist training and you have a natural waist measurment of between 22 and 40 inches, that you purchase a corset 4 inches below your natural waist measurement.
Initially giving you aproximatly a 1 inch reduction and a 4 inch reduction when worn fully closed after several wears.
* However if your natural waist measurement is above 32 inches and you wish to train your waist further it is recomended that you purchase a corset 6 inches
below yor waist measurement. (ie if your waist measurement is 36 inches your corset size is 30). A 6 inch difference will give you an initial waist reduction of aproximatley 2 inches, and a 6 inch reduction when worn fully closed.
Although we appreciate that the wearing of a corset fully closed is an individuals choice, it is our advice to leave a gap of aproximatly 1 inch. This not only gives the stays (bones) flexability but will also protect the spine from abrasion.
Please make sure you refer to our size chart above before ordering. If you are still unsure, please feel free to contact us for further advice.
