    Size Guide

    Our standard fit corsets are designed for a 2-4” waist reduction and a gap of about 2” in the back lacing. Please order 2-6” smaller than your natural waist. If you are between sizes, round down.

    The chart below is based on our core styles: the Cincher and the Sweetheart. If you find your measurements more curvaceous than those below, try our Cupid and Valentine styles! If the below measurements are too curvaceous, consider a slimmer silhouette such as the Tailored Cincher or Alexandra.

    Why do different corsets come in different size runs?

    Our corsets are not one-style-fits-all! They’re based on decades of experience with customers of all shapes and sizes. Our silhouette library and its size range grows along with our client base.

    Each standard fit style reflects our clients at the time of its release. As we work with more clients and see how existing styles do or don't work for customers’ fit needs, we’ve been able to apply that knowledge to developing new styles. Our legacy of fit expertise has drawn in even more diverse clientele, so we've been able to design our newer styles to accommodate broader size runs.
