Pretty Girls and Corsets

The short version, I'm looking for a corset for a pretty girl. She's real small, about 5' 3" or 5' 4".

Anyway, where the hell can I find a sexy corset? So many sets on SG have the hottest clothing EVER, yet I'm an ignorant fool and have no idea where I can find some of this stuff. Online stores or anything in the LA area would be nice.

Any ideas?

My friend Google could probably help you.

this group is rather helpful for corset info.

The best corsets are made specific to a girl's measurements, so, your best bet is not to surprise her with it, but to tell her that you would like to buy her one and get her something really nice.

At least, that would be my advice.

But, if you just want a quick fix, Fredericks of Hollywood usually has some nice stuff. They have at least one location in LA, and an online shop.

Nobody said you were my only hope, pretentious asshats, get over yourselves.

I'll check out the shops recommended.

In regard to having one made, I actually have her measurements (I've had to help her buy a dress before) in regard to bust/waist/hip, is that sufficient?

And holy crap, thanks for the group listing, that's so helpful.

Pin Up Girl Clothing
Baby Girl Boutique

I'd also check Frederick's or Victoria Secrets.

Hope that was some help.

Look, I'm a superficial douchebag, and a snarky fuckwad, but a pretentious asshat, I am not. I will NEVER and I repeat NEVER get over New York Matt. So cross that off your "to do list" because I crossed it off mine.

That's kind of something you have to deal with around here. Getting mad will only make it worse, I promise. Ignoring it will most likely make it better.

Have you tried Ebay?

Deal with what? He said, "Any Ideas?" I gave him an idea, and do I get a thank you? No, all I get is a kick in the ass from a leg in a boot.

How come no one ever looks for corsets for ugly girls?

Oh they do. Trust me they do.

Google.asshat.

Google only has sites for ugly girls' corsets.

beautiful girl in a corset...

This thread was very helpful for me.

You probably aren't looking for a real corset, those are typically custom made and more expensive.

For fashion corsets that aren't intended for real waist cinching we've been real happy with the quality and service of The Dark Angel in the UK.

Isn't there a difference in the off-the-rack corsets designed to be worn smaller than normal size and off-the-rack corsets designed to be worn at your natural size?

The "fashion" corsets aren't sturdy enough for the cinching, right?

For example, Dark Angel recommends you buy their corsets in your actual size.

Oh man, the Dark Angel stuff was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much for pointing me in that direction. <3

Are there any shops that do similar work (that is, non-leather fashion corsets) that are stateside?

dark garden

versatile fashions

Vollers (U.K.)

Romantasy

Stormy Leather

These companies all offer REAL corsets, not the cheapass ones that are going to fall apart after you try to really cinch them. They may cost a little(or a lot, depending on what you choose) more, but they are worth it.

Have fun.
