Corset Tips.. You own one Read..
18 years ago
I've made and own a few corsets my self and though I should share some tips about them..
1. Never Lace till you cant breath, despite contrary belief you should be able to breah, not deeply mind you but breath...You can pass out from lacing too tight not only that you cant breath also that is constricting on your body space, moving your heart and all other organs closer togeather....
2. Dont take it off too fast, Like I said before your organs are pushed closer togeather when you wear a corset correctly; so if you take it off quickly your organs and blood rust back out, kinda like when you stand too quickly... After youve warn one for a long peroid take off slowly and unlace slowly, if you take it off too fast you can get sick and ralph..
3. Lace Correctly... Now that ive said that your wondering ''oh noes is mine laced wrong..?!'' Well there are sevral ways you can lace a corrset.. But sometimes its not right.. your bow should always been eather in teh middle or at the bottem, never at the top.
4. Cleaning....If you get mud or something like that on wait till its dry and remove with hard paper with teh fabric grain..always wash your hands before putting on your corrset also this will keep it looking nice.. the best way to was your corsset is by hand and hang drying, being tossed around in a washer can damage the boning... if you can try dry cleaning it..
5. Storing...When youve taken off the corset always lossen the laces and keep them untied, roll your corrset up hot dog style so you dont bend the boning, place it in the back off a dresser or hang up nicly ( not rolled. ) and make sure its a nice dry and dark place you dont want it fadding or molding..
6. How long is too long?.... If you have your corrset laced correctly and at the right tightness you should be able to wear it for a very long period at a time.. Ive worn my best one with metal boning and full length from 7 am to 2 am... and working too.. ( I work at a con for sicurity/minion work) So as long as your comfortable and not feeling toooo light headed you should be fine.. but.. if you feel light headed or short of breath... you should loosen it..
Well theres really not much more I can say.. But you can ask me if you didnt get something awnsered...^_^
