We have fitted hundreds of brides, and so can pass on some good advice that applies to everyone:
Planning Your Outfit
Choose your style well in advance, making sure that it works with your whole outfit. Before ordering a corset, get accurate measurements for your bust, waist and hips.
A corset will reduce your waist, but be realistic about how tightly you want to be laced in and don’t forget that you will be wearing your outfit all day. A corset can be very comfortable, even supportive, but do not lace very tightly and practice a few times so you get used to it.
Make sure you try everything on together. Check the neckline and back of your outfit; you don’t want underwear showing. If your dress is low backed, C420 might be a good choice. Will you be wearing stockings or tights? If stockings, you’ll need suspenders to hold them up, and to decide how many. Check if the corset comes with suspenders and if you want more added.
Timing
To avoid last minute panics, allow at least 8 weeks for ordering, trying on and possible exchange to get the fitting right, although we usually send out orders within 2 working days of receiving payment.
