    I love that this isn’t that much more expensive than off the rack bras for women in the tiny ribs and big boob category. I’m a 30F/28G, and I have to order bras online for $70+ a pop and cross my fingers they fit. At the price point it’s actually way cheaper to get one TT hourglass overbust and a week’s worth of corset liners than to get three bras and hand wash them every other night!

      Amazing! I'm so glad you managed to get a great fit in this! Its so hard for larger bust sizes to get any kind of decent fit OTR. I know it won't work for me (I'm too short for one thing, plus my natural measurements are 40" bust, 30" underbust, 26" natural waist, 40" high hips, so to fit my bust it would swamp my underbust and waist) but to know that its possible to fit a 34K!! Just wonderful!

  • @doglover1neo

    A possible option to replace the lacing in the front is to use rubber shoelaces. If they're strong enough you should be able to undo one side and leave the other side of the shoelace intact, Hook the busk up and then do the other side without having to physically crisscross or spiral lace the bust lacing.
    Someone would have to test out how durable and supported the laces would be. We don't want the girls to go flying.

    • @LucysCorsetry
      @LucysCorsetry  4 года назад +2

      Ah yes, all my tie-up shoes now have the bungee cord laces now! That could work for the overbust if people don't mind slipping that part over their head (or up from their hips) to get it on and off. It's an idea for sure!

    Good to have to back again. I think it was a few years ago I watched one of your videos and i really fell in love with corsets. at times I wish that I wasn't born a man so i can wear these kind of beautiful garment 😊 maybe i should start making corsets for men ? 😁
    but it have really sparked my interest and I am pretty sure that within an year I have made my first corsets. I don't think I ever sew corsets for making a living, but more as a hobby. So my girlfriend is probably going to be showered with lots of custom made corsets for her 😊
    I really like the overbust corsets, the lines they give are slick, subtle and elegant. and I can see the potential in the overbust corsets to give women, specially with larger bust, a good and comfortable support.
    thank you for the efforts you put in these videos and the inspiration.
    Love from Denmark.

      Corsets for men absolutely exists! There are more stereotypically masculine types, and more androgynous styles and shapes as well. Clothing has no gender :) Making your own corsets is very rewarding (there's a learning curve to it, but it's just a lot of little steps, not particularly super difficult).

    I just got this corset! I love it SO much. I am small chested but I got HIPS. (42 waist 44 bust and 51 hips. My size is 32S bc my chest is so small in proportion lol). I’ve been wearing TT corsets for years and I’ve never had a more comfortable time with a corset, even before seasoning, on first wear.
    The front lacing is a little fiddly, but for me the annoying bit is losing the little string, so i just tied it permanently to one of the bottom eyelets and then lacing and unlacing each time is fine. I might try putting aglets on it, bc the tiny flimsy string is the source of problem more than fact of having to lace it.
    Also, I know you were talking about fuller chests but this style is also good if you’re small chested but have wide shoulders and more fat distribution above the breasts like me. In fact the front lacing lets me control the shaping if worn under a shirt. I can tie it all the way or less to control how big I want my chest to appear.

    I do have one of these corsets. I have a 38" bust, 32" waist. I wear a 26M in this corset. I went small on purpose so i have room to shrink. I have to say, this is one of the most comfortable corsets I've ever worn. The bust support is just right, and it also gives me the back support I need. The front lacing really isn't a bother, it only takes a minute. Well worth the extra time.

      Silver Kitten101 you can wear a corset liner /tube top underneath if you wish, or a thin tank top with the spaghetti straps tucked in. Many people wear overbust corsets directly against their skin though. For short periods of time against clean skin that’s okay, but if you wear an overbust every single day or if you sweat a lot, I do recommend a liner. But at the end of the day people can do what they want with their own belongings. :)

      Hi Aura, you will need at least a little lacing gap in the back for proper fit, so you will probably fit the size 26” and wear it at around 28 inches. I don’t recommend getting a corset the exact same size as your natural waist because it will slide around on your body, chafing the skin and not properly supporting your posture - this is true for any brand, not just mine.

Im a j cup, seen this in email was excited for a moment until i realized, of course yall stopped at 38", what was i thinking. And u consider 34" larger?

Whether its to be sexy or for health we have been left out again😢

    • @LucysCorsetry
      @LucysCorsetry  4 года назад +4

      Hi Mechelle. There seems to be a number of misunderstandings and I'll clarify them below:
      1) J cup bras are not all that big or uncommon. I routinely size people who wear H-I-J cup bras in the Medium cup size for this corset - the Large cup is often too big for them, and the Large cup can often fit K-L-M cup sizes - but it all depends on the difference between the waist and the full bust, since overbust corsets are sized differently compared to bras.
      2) 38" is the compressed waist size, not the bust measurement. Size 38" is often worn by people who have a natural waist of around 46-48 inches. For instance the size 38" Large cup overbust requires a minimum bust circumference of 52 inches in order to barely fill out the top. Any smaller than this is likely to have the corset be too big and not support the bust properly. It's recommended to have more like 54-56 inches bust, with the corset laced closed. And if you choose to wear this corset with a lacing gap in the back, you can have a bust circumference of easily 60 inches and the corset will still fit well. This encompasses more than 99% of the full-busted market, and those who are sized out of these corsets for their bust size (requiring a custom) would likely also have to look at custom bras for these proportions as well.
      3) This corset was not drafted by me, but I usually draft my corset patterns up to 42" / 44" compressed waist (which fit 50+ inch natural waists easily). For the hourglass overbust corsets, it DOES require that the wearer have somewhat hourglass proportions, no matter how big or small that hourglass is. If you have a waistline about the same size or bigger than your hips/bust, then the slim silhouette overbust does come up to size 42" waistline and Large bust, and won't gape or flare at the top and bottom edges.
      4) I didn't say that size 34" is plus size. Maybe the miscommunication came from this overbust style having two different sets of measurements (size 18" to 28" is "the smaller set", and size 30" to 38" is "the larger set"). So when I mention a size 34" as a "larger" corset, I am taking a random number/size among this 30+ subset of corsets, to use as an example, as in "size 34 is comparatively larger than for instance a size 24 corset."
