While I'm completely in love with this corset, it is not at all what I expected. It has a few quirks, but it's still something I'm going to cherish. Uncomfortable boning makes this a play-time piece only, and not an all-day piece.

If you want a beautiful, classic full torso piece of lingerie, than look no further - it's easy to wear and great on style. If you want a true shaping corset, you'll want to shop for something else.

My daughter gives this a 4.75 star rating and says that she is sure that there is probably something better out there, but she has no idea what it would be. She says that it isn't perfect, but it sure does encourage her to have good posture and it looks good over another shirt. I'm rounding her rating up to 5 stars. If you're not looking to use it as a corset, it is very nice.

This corset was a bit disappointing for me. I didn't like the way it fit me and the fact that the bowing bent at the waist instead of creating a nice shape for me. A corset is meant to do three things: make the waist smaller, lift and support your bosoms, and help improve your posture. This corset didn't do enough of any one of those for me to recommend it.
