Hey everyone, I wanted to share my opinion and also hear yours.

Personally, I really dislike corsets from fast fashion brands like SHEIN. In my experience, they often look like corsets but don’t actually function like real ones. The fit is usually off, they don’t shape the body properly, and sometimes they can even make you look bulkier instead of enhancing your silhouette.

What bothers me even more is when people or shops resell them at higher prices, marketing them as if they were real corsets. That just feels misleading.

Honestly, I think it’s better to not wear a corset at all than to wear something poorly made that doesn’t fit right and could even be uncomfortable or potentially harmful if it’s constructed badly.

Of course, this is just my perspective. I know they’re affordable and accessible, which is a big plus for many people. But I’m curious:

Have you tried SHEIN corsets?

Did they work for you or not?

Do you think they’re worth it for beginners?

Would love to hear different experiences and opinions!

Hi! I’d really appreciate some advice before buying my next corset.

My measurements (rounded):

Underbust: 31”

Waist: 27”

Hips: 36”

I’m considering getting a 22” corset for a more dramatic reduction. I already have experience with corsets and I’m comfortable with tighter lacing, but I don’t want something that puts too much pressure on my ribs.

I’ve been looking at models like MCC22, MCC29 and MCC61V, but I’m not sure which one would suit my proportions best.

Some extra info:

I’m 5’0” (153 cm) and have a short torso

I’m okay with a small gap if needed, but I’d prefer a relatively clean fit

My goal is a defined waist, but still comfortable enough to wear for a while

Do you think a 22” would work for me, or would a 24” be a better choice?

And which model would you recommend for my measurements and body type?

I don’t even care if it’s sleeveless or long sleeve, I just LOVE the furry/fluffy detail it has 🥹 that’s literally the whole vibe I’m looking for.

If you know the exact one OR anything similar, please drop links, brands, or keywords I should search for!!

I feel like it might be some kind of Y2K / faux fur crop top, but I can’t find the exact one anywhere 💔

Help a girl out pls 😭♡
