Foundation vs corset

Post by CarolCorbett »

So I don't get to dress much as I would like but want to start spending a little more time as Carole and make an effort at looking good and age appropriate. that means I am going to invest in a good wig, forms and some form of waist support. That's where I need some help and opinion....should I buy a boned corset or a good girdle.foundation like a rago or something similar. What's your opinion?

Hi,

You may not wont to though, I would and not because I,m a female ,

I would go see the lady who does them and have a fitting don't buy and try and wont fit you ,

Its a must you get it right first off

myself I keep fit and weight is right so I don't need such now as a side note youll need to find out about bra,s er forms I,ll take it youll be having ,

also as I have no idear of your weight height and body sizing its like trying to answer a ? with out knowing your details so tape your self and ,

If I was going to do this I would first checkin at a bra shope and get a fitting and start there first as that will give you an idear your ... er forms will look I have access to them just I don't need them ,

theres about 3 main types steel bone and other man made and don't try to tight at first or you may find ........ you need air .

Hi Carole,
A good starter waist trainer is the Rago 21, it has steel bones and is very flexible. I buy mine one size less than my waist measurement, but am thinking that I could get the next one 2 sizes down. They wear great and after washing they feel like new again.

It depends on how much you're tying to hold in. A decent corset will cost more than a simple girdle or shape wear. Sadly, too many women give less thought about their waistline than you do.
