Plus size gals - it is so hard to find something pretty that we can wear. I think I've found a piece that can work well for you even if you have larger hips and waist like I do - as long as you can still find a way to breathe that is! While it is a bit tight for me to wear right now, and I did have to hold my breath at first, I found that once I was wearing it and it molded itself to my body, I was able to breathe better. I just had to learn to breathe with something a bit tight on.

I especially love the breast support and what this does for my breasts - as long as I wear the straps. Without the straps...sorry - they sort of fall out.


WHAT THIS IS...HOW TO WEAR IT...
This is a gorgeous corset which can be dressed up and worn outside the bedroom or worn inside the bedroom. The choice is yours. I would love to wear it with my black pants (shown in the picture below) and a nice jacket but I believe my husband would die of shock. Plus, I am not yet able to breathe freely in it. Let me lose another 10 pounds, get some courage and I will wear this out for a nice dinner somewhere once I find an attractive jacket to cover it up a bit.

It is currently available in the following sizes on Eden: S,M,L,XL,1x/2x
It comes in a plastic bag and includes a silky black padded hanger.

MATERIAL & CARE
This corset is made of 82% nylon and 18% spandex. It has plastic boning in 10 places. It needs to be hand washed and hung to dry.

DESIGN
This has a hook and eye closure on the back with 17 hooks. The inside is lined of super soft black fabric that is very comfortable to wear and not at all itchy. It is not a velvety softness but it feels very luxurious. The elastic along the waist area behind where the ribbon goes does a great job of helping to show off your curves.

My only concern about this corset is that the purple fabric underneath the lace at the bottom of the corset is not hemmed. It is definitely spandex and may not need hemming.

17 hook & eye closure - two rows of eyes 5/8" apart
1 1/4" elastic along waist area

front - top of cup to hem - 17"
front hem - 23" unstretched

My daughter's sizes 16-18 40D 43" 49" 20"

Considering the fact that I am 7" larger in the waist and 5" larger in the hips than this piece is designed for - I am THRILLED with how it fits. I just wish I could breathe a bit better in it. I felt like it looked great with my breasts and I really felt like it made me look sexy and attractive all over, especially when I wore it with the black pants you'll see me in.

My daughter did not care for the cups because she did not fill them out so she felt like they were too loose or the wrong shape for her breasts.

If you have a natural hour glass feature anyway, my daughter feels like this will make you look great. Otherwise, you probably should have nice hips or nice breasts to really carry this off.
