Frequently asked Questions

How do I choose the correct size of corset?
Fitting a corset is a matter for experts, choosing a corset depends upon your body shape and indeed what you are wanting to wear it for. When you choose a corset that you think you would like, we ask you for many measurements including your bust, waist and hip measurements. Once we have these we can get underway with having your chosen garment made for you.  If we think that you have chosen a style that will not suit your shape then we will contact you to give you a suitable alternative.

Please give your ‘actual’ measurements (not the desired ones)

We do not sell ‘off the peg’ corsets in specific sizes we actually have the corsets and other garments made to the actual measurements that you give us. Depending upon your size will allow us to decide what size pattern to cut for the fabric. We then assess the correct size, taking into account your figure and the style of corset chosen. Usually a corset approximately 4 inches/10 cm. Smaller than your natural waist size will be made and sent to you.

Does wearing a corset hurt?
No, as long as you wear it properly it actually feels very pleasant. A real corset (not a plastic boned corset) supports you and compresses you evenly all around. It should NEVER hurtA correctly fitted corset should fit snugly all over, without being uncomfortably tight. If you wish to reduce your waist, lace your corset slightly tighter each time you wear it. If you are wanting to use your corset for waist training you must let us know this at the time of ordering as this will affect the size of the corset that we make for you.

How should I care for my corset?
A corset will last a long time, provided it is properly cared for; ensure your corset is not too small for you, do not overtighten (unless used for waist training) and have it professionally dry cleaned. Leather corsets should only be cleaned by a leather specialist. If you wear your corset on a regular basis, it is a good idea to put something underneath, such as a t shirt, vest or camisole, which will protect the corset and save on frequent dry cleaning.

Will I require help putting my corset on?
It is easier with someone to help, but perfectly possible to do it on your own. See corset instructions.

Are the suspenders detachable?
All the suspenders you see on the corsets on the website are permanently attached and are not detachable. However, we are able to offer detachable narrow (18mm wide) suspenders as a special request on most styles, please make your selection on the corset pages. We cannot offer our wide (28mm wide) suspenders as a detachable option.

Can I have extra suspenders added?
Yes, to all styles please order them on the product page.

Is whalebone still used in making corsets?
Whalebone has not been used for many years. Nowadays steel spiral boning is used to stiffen corsets.

Can I contact you?
Please contact us HERE and we can call you back at a convienient time. Please specify a good time including your email address or telephone number.

How soon after ordering will my corset be sent?
Most orders are dispatched within 7 days receipt. If your corset requires more attention this may delay matters for a couple more days. Most customers recieve their orders within 7 days to the UK. It may take a little bit longer to send worldwide. You should also be aware that your own country’s customs may impose import duty.

Do you make larger sizes and what are the largest measurements a corset will fit?
Please see the plus size section where the largest sizes are 34 inches when fully closed and can be suitable for a natural waist of 40 inches.

I do not have a credit card, how else can I pay?
UK customers can pay by cheque or postal order, made payable to ‘Vanilla’ as this is our trading name.  We thought Corsets Lingerie & Bridal UK was a bit too long winded for our business cheques.   Your order will not be dispatched until the cheque has fully cleared our account, which could take between 7 to 10 days.

I do not want to give my card details over the internet, what should I do?
Contact us on the email address and specify a good time for us to contact you. One of our sales team will phone you at a suitable time and can take payment from you over the phone.

I’m about to place my order – what should I expect?

Once you have placed the order, just sit back, relax and wait for the post man to knock on your door. All our garments are sent to you registered post with a tracking number. Your custom hand made corset, waist cincher or other item will be completed within 7 days! You should receive a confirmation email regarding your order and have already agreed to the terms and conditions on our payment page.

I’m trying to loose weight for my wedding day, when should I order my corset?

One of the reasons it is recommended that there be a gap down center back is to take into account possible weight fluctuations. This will allow you to wear the corset a little more closed at the back as you start to lose weight. Any significant weight loss however, may be cause to treat yourself to a new corset! Since corsets are made to measure items, you will never have as perfect of a fit if your body size changes significantly. If you are dieting especially for your wedding day or other special event it is always best to have the corset fitted to you and with you at your final dress fitting. This will allow your dress maker to make any final alterations to your dress and will also take into consideration any significant weight loss prior to the day.

I love the corsets but I wondered can I choose my own colours to mix and match?

This is completely possible. If you see a corset or waist cincher but you can not see the colour that you would like it in, or indeed if you would like lace trims and frills added to it, please email us and let us know. We will be happy to have your bespoke garment made just for you.

Burlesque Today

 

Burlesque is a time-honoured form of dance performance, combining eroticism with humour, wit and style. It was born in the 19th century, and after years of playing second fiddle to the more overtly sexual striptease, it is with us again. For any serious burlesque artiste, though, what is important is not just taking it all off–it’s whatyou take off. Burlesque has always been its own world of fashion.

History

  The golden age of burlesque dates from the late 19th century when troupes like Lydia Thompson and her British Blondes wowed audiences by dancing in costumes considered shocking for the day. Vintage photos reveal skirts above the knee and close-fitting tights. In the early years of the 20th century, producers like the Minskys were staging full burlesque shows,featuring comedians and novelty acts as well as pretty girls, in theatres across the U.S.  

Perhaps predictably, the more clothes the girls removed,

the more burlesque came to be associated with exposed female flesh.

Burlesque style

  Burlesque artistes regard costumes as so important, that they often build performances–routines–around what they plan to wear. Costumes range from glamorous through sexy to outright funny.

In today’s burlesque world, all bets are off, and you are as likely to see a female performer stripping out of a construction worker outfit as performing a classic fan dance recreating vintage looks.

An exquisite shape and beautiful uplifting cleavage line. This corset has traditional front fastening steel busks and boot lace fastening to the rear. A very vintage and sexy look.

Years Without Fashion

  By the 1960s, public morals had begun to tolerate full nudity and explicit sexual content, not just in theatres but in clubs and in movies. With sex stars leaving nothing to the imagination, costumes became of secondary importance.

Any of our made to measure corsets, waist cinchers and basques are all made with steel bones. They accentuate your bust, hips & waist. This have proved important under today’s traditional style wedding dresses where many already come with a fitted bodice. All of our corsets can also be worn as an outer wear garment so you will definitely get your wear from them after your special day!  Our models loved wearing our corsets so much for our photo shoots, they were comfortable in them all day, perhaps a little loosening around lunch time. They all commented on how their postures had improved and how dramatic their figures looked.

                                         Rayne Overbust Candy Pink Corset with white stripes  

Ivory, nude and white are not for everyone.  Perhaps you would like to invest in something that you would like to wear again and again.  Not just for one day.  Phew…… your wedding dress was the biggest expense that will later sit in your wardrobe gathering dust.  Our model above (Chanelle) loves this candy pink stripe corset (also available in many more colours) as well as the ivory nude and whites.  You can still feel bridal even though your underwear is not traditionally ‘neutral’.  Anyway…… who wants boring white bra and knickers.. Come on ladies, this is a special moment to feel special about yourself and your body.

For brides that want something out of the ordinary, a corset can be worn on its own with a skirt or even trousers and jeans for a stunning and unconventional look, and the back lacing will give the congregation and/or guests something to look at besides the back of your head during the ceremony.

                                         Rachel – Overbust White and black striped corset steel boned

We have styles from traditional, back lacing, steel ‘boned’ corsets from Victorian / Edwardian classics to modern waist cinchers.

Our vast range is designed to make women feel beautiful and individual.

Geeky Stuff : (Beware of imitations and fake cheap corsets) They may look nice for 5 minutes but believe us – they are not worth the time or effort making never mind buying.  Invest in yourself……… !! 

A REAL & PROPER corset is completely different from a basque or waspie, neither of which are designed to pull in the waist. The real thing comes in two halves, laced together at the back and fastening at the front with a steel busk, with springy spirals in the lining all the way round to give that wonderful hour glass shape (whalebone has not been used for many years).

                                                    Bonnie Waist Cincher Corset 

All this metal may sound cumbersome, but don’t let it put you off. Today’s styles are light and flexible and surprisingly comfortable. Many people find the sensation of being gently held straight with the back supported almost relaxing. Like I stated previously all our models loved getting dressed up and especially felt so glamorous !

                                                              Diane Waist Cincher Corset

 Being laced into a corset can be an exquisitely sensual experience; the laces slide across your back as they are pulled gradually in from the top and bottom towards the middle, and the sensation is of being embraced tighter and tighter. You don’t have to pull in to a Scarlet O’Hara 18 inches – you may be content with the corset just hugging you or you can lace down to an iron grip.

When you order, giving your own measurements, we select the best size for you to ensure a snug fit all over. A corset should mould itself to your body after you have worn it a few times and you can gradually lace a bit tighter if you wish.

                                                              Kelly Overbust corset

First time wearers are usually surprised and delighted when they look in the mirror; corsets enhance any woman’s body, giving not just a smaller waist, but the impression of fuller breasts and hips, giving a feeling of intense femininity.

                                                  Claudia Underbust waist cincher corset belt

 

A corset is made to look and feel beautiful, whether you are wearing it under clothes or as an outer garment.

frou frou briefs and french knickers vintage style underwear great for dressing up or fancy dress

FRENCH KNICKERS Lace Trim £19.00 Available in 4 Colours   Black / Black lace White / White Lace Red / Black Lace Pink / White Lace	Frou Frou Briefs Frou Frou Lace Back detail £29.00 Available in 4 Colours   Black / Black lace White / White Lace Red / Black Lace Pink / White Lace
WHAT ARE FRENCH KNICKERS   French Knickers are a type of lingerie. The term is predominantly used in the UK to describe a type of underwear worn from the hip. They cover the hip, part of the upper thigh and part of the buttocks. They are regarded as more comfortable and sexier than thongs by some.   In the mid to late 1970s French Knickers, designed by Janet Reger and others, brought erotic and exotic style to lingerie. Of course major manufacturers through the 1980s to present day latched on to the trends. Now luxury lace and silk French Knickers are available in high street stores.	WHAT IS FROU FROU The word frou-frou is first recorded in English in the early 1870s. Its original sense was ‘a rustling, as of silk on a woman’s dress’. An example that the Oxford English Dictionary cites from 1871: “With a frou-frou of soft silk she arose.” This sense also appears as a verb–“frou-frouing skirts,” for example.   The current sense, ‘elaborate or frilly decoration, as on women’s clothing’, is also found for the first time in the 1870s.   The word frou-frou is a borrowing from French, in which it is first found in the 1730s. It is ultimately of imitative origin the word is supposed to sound like the rustling of silk.

Bloomers got their name from Amelia Bloomer. She wanted to promote clothing that whist sticking to the views and fashions of the period also allowed women more choice and variety in the underwear that was available. Bloomers and loose cotton camisoles became a practical solution for womens underwear to provide practicality and flexibility.   We sell authentic long and short bloomers as well as open crotch bloomers and cotton vintage style camisoles. Vintage bloomers are as popular as ever especially with the series deadwood

Waist cinchers and waist corset belts made to measure here

Steel boned waist cincher belt corset for waist training and for fashion made from satin leather or suede in red blue black white ivory purple pink gold and peach all made to measure

Definition
A waist cincher or Ribbon Corset is a type of short corset or wide belt that is used to reduce and shape the waist. It is much tighter than an abdominal belt. The Ribbon Corset is a waist cincher made of ribbon. Pseudo-ribbon corset is a waist cincher which looks like a ribbon corset but it is made of cut pieces instead of ribbons.   Function

A type of waist cincher been used as light corset for sleep, and another type for light summer corset, used next to the skin or outside of the summer dress. But also an elastic waist cincher been used on the outside of corseted dresses.

  In fashion

The waist cincher was in fashion from 1860 to 1907, particularly 1900 to 1907 and was very rare from 1911 to 1947 and from 1960 to 1985. WAIST CINCHERS HERE

  Dior’s New Look brought it back to popularity around 1947. It became the quntisential undergarment for wearing the nipped-in waists popularized by that style. For a few years, it reigned mainstream, then faded in popularity as the New Look was replaced by other fashion innovations.   Biological aspects While the idea of applying force to the waist for aesthetic reasons has fallen out of favor, there were some advantages to the practice. Postural support and pressure to the hip and sacroiliac joints probably helped women maintain health. Childbearing weakens the ligaments in the pelvic area, and the waist cincher is the mid-19th century version of the “girdle” or “kirtle” used for more than a thousand years to improve stability of the mid-section and trunk. Bipedalism, in humans, makes for weakness in the torso. Men wore waist cinchers and corsets (and a variety of other earlier garments) for similar reasons. Prince Albert, the Consort of Queen Victoria, wore very tightly laced waist-cinching corsets, and brought them into vogue for gentlemen’s wear.  

The waist cincher went beyond mere structural support, though, and into maintaining the distinctly feminine proportions anthropologists now understand have strong sexual appeal.

HOW DO I SELECT THE RIGHT SIZE?   SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE   MEN (Natural waists of 22″-34″) Corsets are sold in Waist sizes, in 2 inch increments. Authentic Corsets are designed to be ordered 4 inches under one’s natural waist measurement. For example, if the measurement around the narrowest part of one’s relaxed waist is 30″, a corset would be needed in size 26″. If one trains down to the point that the corset no longer fits snug, a new corset should be ordered with a reduction of 2 inches from the current laced waist.   PLUS SIZE WOMEN, MEN & TRANSGENDER (Natural waists of 34″+) For those customers with waists of 34 inches or more, it is recommended to order 6 inches under the natural waist measurement. Therefore, a plus size women who has a natural relaxed waist size of 40 inches would typically need a corset in size 34″.   We make our ordering simple for you. You just place your actual measurements and we do the math !

We also make BRIDAL CORSETS & BASQUES FOR YOU SPECIAL DAY

Consider how and where you want to wear your corset – the decorated ones are fine for bedroom wear and dressing up but if you want to put a corset under everyday clothes, choose a plain style which will not show

through as much.

 

2. WHICH SIZE ?

  Leave us to choose the correct size for you.   When ordering your corset, it is important that you do not give the size of the corset you want, but your actual, uncorsetted measurements (in inches).   We need 3 Measurements.   1. Waist Size – in inches ” (not too tight) 2. Your normal CUP size (check your bra’s) 3. Your normal UK Dress Size   Then thats it !! Thats all we need. Easy as that !
