Find Your Best Fit
Our corsets are designed for a close, sculpted fit through the bust and waist. The adjustable lace-up back allows you to customize the fit and level of compression.
For a more defined and supportive fit, choose the size that allows the back lacing to remain slightly open when adjusted comfortably.
If the corset closes completely but still feels loose or provides very little compression, we recommend sizing down.
Corset Fit
• Sculpting fit through the bust and waist
• Adjustable lace-up back for a customizable fit
• Designed to provide light to moderate compression
• Structured front and side panels help define the silhouette
• Fit may vary slightly by style, fabric, and individual body proportions
• The corset should feel secure without restricting breathing or movement
Fit Preference
• Choose your usual size for a lighter, more relaxed fit
• Size down for stronger compression and more waist definition
• If you are between sizes and prefer a more sculpted fit, choose the smaller size
• If you have a fuller bust, broader rib cage, or prefer less compression, choose the larger size
Petite Fit Reference
• Height: 5’3”
• Bust: 32”
• Waist: 25”
• Wearing: XXS
XXS provides a secure, sculpted fit with noticeable compression.
XS can also be worn, but it provides a lighter fit with less compression, even when the back lacing is tightened to its most fitted comfortable position.
Studio Model
• Height: 5’9”
• Bust: 33.5”
• Waist: 25”
• Hips: 38”
• Wearing: XS
The studio model wears XS consistently across other 5’3 by WL clothing. Corset fit may appear slightly different depending on bust shape, torso length, and how tightly the back lacing is adjusted.
How the Back Lacing Should Fit
• A small opening between the back panels is normal
• Adjust the lacing gradually and evenly
• The back panels should remain balanced and sit evenly
• Do not force the corset completely closed
• If the corset closes fully and still feels loose, consider sizing down
• If the back opening is excessively wide or the corset feels restrictive, consider sizing up
