I've never counted. About ten that fit perfectly since I've list weight and a few that are now too big. Including the underbust peplum hipped one I loved. I may buy myself a replacement one on by birthday now you've made me think I miss it... |

Dun buy from corset story! They buy generic corsets and ramp up the price. Unless you want to have custom made corsets, buy from amazon. You can get fantastic quality, extremely cheap (sub £30) spiral steel, plate steel or whatever your preference is corsets and corset dresses. I started with corset story corsets and comparing them to the ones I have now... I can't believe I paid as much as I did for really bad corsets  |

The one I'm looking at is £19 for a steel boned steam-punk corset. Looks pretty good value to me.
Last one I bought for full price was handmade for me and fell to bits after 3 wears. |

"Do you buy your normally dress size?? I've just struggled trying to get a basque to fit  "
For a steel boned corset you buy 4" less, so a 30" corset will fit a 34-35" waist. Plastic boned you buy your size. |

I haven't yet bought a corset but want one so bad! My problem is I have an American size 36J bust...and I live in a small town so actually finding somewhere to physically shop for a corset is going to be extremely difficult! ...OK, that's my whine for the day!  |

Look up Cherryblossom on here. She's got big boobicles but rocks a corset, And I am sure they are available online over there. You just have to be honest with the tape measure so its fits perfectly. |

"Sale on at Corset Story. Can I justify another one?
How many corsets do you own? "
Do you have to justify corsets?! I thought the fact that it's a corset is justification enough! |

I'm planning on going to Lux Tenebrae if I can ever afford it.
That site will distract a fair few fab members if the bother to look, I'm sure |
