Charmian Women's Gothic Punk Satin Boned Zipper Overbust Corset Top with Buckles

Ok so first things first if your on the fence about buying this corset. Do it yo will not regret it. It looks so freaking good and I can’t wait to actually wear it longer than just trying on lol.I am about 135-145 lbs it fluctuates about a 36c in bras and I normally wear a medium in tops. And I have a wide ribcage. With that being said I was a little hesitant because of the previous reviews talking about the sizing. Ultimately I ended up getting the Xl. It came pre laced in the back which was nice that way I don’t have to mess with it. Initially taking it out of the bag and putting it on it was tight but I could still breathe. I later had my husband help me loosen it a little to my liking and now I can wear it all day at a festival comfortably now.The feel of it feels good it doesn’t feel cheap or flimsy. The zipper doesn’t get stuck or snag. It’s also not going to slip down one because the zipper isn’t loose but also because while the buckles on the front don’t hold any real purpose to cinch anything in they do however hold that zipper into place ( I tested jumping up and down and movements to see if the zipper would slip and also zipped it down to the first buckle on the chest to see) with the buckles being there even if it was to slip it’s not going to be enough that my breast would be exposed. So that’s a plus. I can sit in it comfortably, my husband loves it, I love it. And you look like a sexy bad ass lol. What’s more to want.Long story short go up one or 2 sizes adjust the laces to your preference. And rock this corset you won’t be disappointed.

5’ 3” 169 - 172 lbs. 34 B chest. Pear shape.Wore for gothic final girl costume. Absolutely recommend would also advise a new strap to tighten the corset. Ribbon was strong for 2 times i tried it on, but does feel ready to snap. Corset itself does feel good to hold you in. Wore all day did get slight bruising b/c i did tell my friend to make as tight as possible and 4 hrs in it started to get uncomfy. I does feel nice how it hugs you. Sitting and bending was difficult lol but looked awesome.Didnt feelt trouble breathing.

I was so excited when I first got this I was so amazed that I had bought some thing so motorcycle style quite edgy piece and I loved wearing it it was just fun and comfortable but had a decidedly hot look at the same time it was the perfect combination of Hot and sweet .

good quality. easy to use and looks amazing

Did I look hot in it? Yes (at first).Do I regret getting it? Also yes.Wore this for my first show playing on stage and got loads of compliments, HOWEVER by the end of the night the fabric had relaxed too much and I felt as though I was spilling out of it. And looking back at photos, the buckles on the front gave a pudgy "meat tied with a string" effect because the fabric loosened up. I don't think I'll wear it again, which is a shame since it was pretty pricey.

Understand, I'm kind of a large gal. My daughters and I are going to a Renaissance fair in a couple of weeks and I wanted something unique (for me) to wear. I have never found a corset that actually fit right. They're usually too big or too small. This one required some creative "sucking in" but once zipped it was tightened down until the spirits of my ancestors were slipping out of my pores. Honestly I looked like I had a waist and I haven't seen that thing in decades. I think I'll wear it to sleep in for a while, see if maybe I can trick my body into thinking that's how it's built. Nevermind, I like breathing. Truly it's a comfortable garment. I do need something to check that back fat roll that looms over the top though. I wish they made them where they came up the back higher, with bones to keep it from folding down (I have some pretty rebellious back fat). I'm not sure how that would work, but if I was the kind of masochist who would subject my girth to a corset every day, I'd wear it just to smooth the under-blubber. Mind you I'm not a cow, but there are decisions I would change (cheesecake and gummy bears). Definitely worth the price. Five gold stars for y'all as it held together when my husband put his foot on my back and snugged that booger on down.

This is what happened to me. The top was very pretty, but not sturdy enough for my breasts. I ordered a 4x as I'm a 38c and I figured always go huge on amazon. Anyway, as I said... It fit, but no support. I work biker events and have ordered several of these tops. They always support my breasts. This top was impossible. I couldn't make it from my friends bar to my bar. It was literally below my breasts... ( I had a hoodie on over it, so luckily no incident. I spent more time trying to secure my top than bartending. One person literally looped zip ties through it till I could barely breath... My breasts still could not be tamed. As I said previously, I've purchased several others at reasonable prices that I had no problems with. I'm fluffy, but not unreasonably so. Anyway... I returned the top, only wore it for 20 mins and luckily brought another with me, as I couldn't get it on by myself and didn't wanna get myself into a situation when I was looking t a 16 hour shift. They returned the money and then a month or even later charged a totally different card for the top again. The message said they never received the top. I did send a box w/ several items and also sent them an email reiterating the fact that sent it back. I can only assume amazon took a hand in this or why would they be able to access a different card number.I never received any other correspondence from the purveyor that unjustly charged my card and I'm confused as to how they had accesses to another card number. Honestly, the top is very attractive before you walk and loose all your goodies. If your fortunate enough to be skinny; Then I think it would be beautiful. Also, if these people didn't do whatever they wanted with my credit card!!! I obviously will call the credit card company, but just beware......
