I have a weird shapped rib cage, and I would like to make me look thinner. Maybe it will reshape my rib cage, because it pokes out instead of going in.

if you need a corset, there are many modern corset makers nowadays.
(myself included)
you need your measurements handy when you try to place an order though.
where you need to measure is
1:around your rib cage, just under the bust(much like your measuring for a bra)
2:around the fullest part of the bust(if you want a full corset/if not look for a waist cincher)
3:around your natural waistline(waist cinchers and corsets when tightened, will decrease this measurement by inches)
4: around the fullest part of the hip(full corset are meant to shape you into an hourglass type silhouette)
be warned, that wearing corsets restricts breathing. this is normal.
if you can't breath at all, it's much too tight and you need to loosen it.
i wouldn't advise trying to reshape your ribcage with corset training, you could end up breaking them and really hurting yourself. this activity is not for the weak.
have fun and if you have anymore questions, please email me.

There are a lot of ways to look thinner. Corsets are just too hard to find. The color the clothing you wear ( darker) creates the appearance of a smaller waist. Tops that are kinda criss crossed also do that for you. What you may want to look into are girdles.

sadly, the only place to get a good boned corset is a stripper shop. Try Cindie's or Erotica. They have some great full bodice corsets. I wore one under my wedding dress, and I looked like an amazing proportionate hour glass, and I am by no means tiny.

the actual deal, as you place it, will set you lower back some severe dollars. I had a ladyfriend a mutually as lower back who wore a corset each and all of the time, different than whilst she took a bathtub. once I requested why, sooner or later, she instructed me a corset improved her discern in techniques she enjoyed and made her experience like she exchange into being hugged throughout. She had a number of custom made for each and every day positioned on and a few from Vollers and Axfords for "gown up" situations. She knowledgeable me on corsets. a actual corset has a number of issues, a metallic busk in front with hooks (hooks and eyes like the lower back closure on a bra are for toys), spiral metallic continues to be (plastic is purely too versatile) and heavy laces (heavy like boot laces, no longer ribbon). they arrive in multiple varieties reckoning on the form and such, however the form you're searching for is what my ladyfriend wore maximum in lots of situations, an "underbust" form, i.e., no bra cups. The in good condition is rather considerable. maximum would be bought by using waist length. you purchase a length 4" under your organic waist length and the form is desperate greater by using the form of your torso. ideally, you've got somebody assist you to with the lacing, yet self-lacing is attainable. I watched my ladyfriend do it by using hooking the loops in lower back over a doorknob, leaning forward to stay with slightly tension and then attaining lower back to pull the guy laces on the precise and backside. The Vollers and Axfords web content have spectacular photos of the multiple varieties and types. in spite of you do, the actual ingredient is costly, in spite of if offered off the rack from Vollers or Axfords or custom made by using a seamstress or tailor. as quickly as you hit upon the form you go with for, seek for a greater much less high priced source, like Ebay.

Yes,after you wear a corsett for a certain amount of time..(months)
your body will take on the form.it will thin out,but be careful you don't over do it.some people do it as a fetish to make them skinner in the middle to have the absolute hourglass shape...and go to the extreme (corset training or corsetting)causing there bodies to loose it's natural shape and become sick from it.it causes digestion problems and other internal problems.i would not suggest wearing it for a long period of time.

You can do yourself injury if you wear them too often. Do some research into what happened to women who wore them back in the day. I wear them with certain dresss, but I would never recommend trying to reshape your body - that's just gross.

If you really want to go all out, check out a rennaisance fair. :)

Otherwise, if you're handy... you can make your own, go to a fabric store and find a pattern.. Simplicity offers at least one..

Yes, I'm a guy, so it's weird that I know that.. but I'm a film guy, so costume info is helpful! :) Good luck!
