Correct Fitting Of Your Corset

Measuring your corset is like how you would measure the bandwidth for your bra

 
How to measure your bandwidth

Stand in front of a mirror, wrap your tape measure snugly around your chest, just under the crease beneath your breasts, and flush against your back. Check in the mirror that the tape measure is parallel to the floor and flat across your back. you  may need a friend or partner to help you. Record this measurement in inches and write it down. Now you’ll need to do some basic math to find your proper band size.

If the number is even add 4 to get your band size
If the number is odd add 5 to get your band size

Example: if you wrote down 34 add 4 and your band size will be 38, this will also be your corset size!
If you have DD cup size or above you would go one size larger.

 
How to take your measurements
Bust Band Size - To measure your band size, take the measurement underneath your bust keeping the tape flat and straight across your back.
 
Bust Cup Size - To measure your cup size, take the measurement across the fullest part of the bust and across your shoulder blades keeping the tape straight at the back but not too tight. Combine the two measurements to get your size.
 
Waist - To measure your waist, take a measurement around the narrowest part of your natural waistline keeping the tape close to your body.
 
Hips - To measure your hips, take a measurement of the widest part of the hips approximate 8"/20cm below the waistline.
