SIMPLE FACTS
Whether wearing a corset for masculine, feminine,
waist training or body modification purposes, there are
basic differences between the male and female torso that
cannot be dismissed when purchasing a corset.
Let's face it, when it comes to the average male and
shopping, it is most often a fate worse than death.
Purchasing clothing, especially undergarments and lingerie
type apparel is usually not a top list pick and is most
often left to the women when at all possible.
For those who are shopping for themselves, whether
enjoyably, secretly, etc., it is our goal to make your
shopping experience as painless and discrete if need be,
as is possible.
LESS
IS NOT MORE
In order to best assist our male customers with their
purchase, the more information we are provided, the better
we are able to assist you. We understand that the
"how's" and "why's" of purchasing a
corset may not be a topic easily discussed.
However, the information provided will help us determine
which styles may best accommodate your needs. We are here
to provide you with a service, not speculate, criticize,
or judge why or how the use of the purchase is
intended.
Being custom styles are not returnable, it is very
important accurate measurements are provided when
ordering. As always, you do have the option to forgo this
important step and request custom styles in standard
sizing at your own risk.
Having a local tailor professionally measure you is an
option, if you are unsure on how to properly obtain
accurate measurements by ones self.
We are happy to assist you with any sizing, style or other
information which may not be covered on the site.

& Measuring
THE LONG & SHORT OF IT
Being
the male torso is typically broader through the chest,
narrow through the underbust and hips, and longer in the
torso, the main issue with both over and underbust styles
lies in the hip region and torso length. Corsets are
generally cut to accommodate the "hourglass"
shape, being bustier up top, narrow through the waist,
short through the torso and bigger in the hips. More
often than not, male customers require made to measure
corsets, cut specifically for their measurements.
Additional fees apply for this service.
SELECTION
For those customers strictly on the masculine tip, there
are certain styles and fabrics that will help achieve
waist reduction or control, aid in weight loss etc.,
without any air of femininity. Black satin, Beige satin,
Nude Coutil and Black coutil are popular fabrics among our
male clientele.
For those male customers on the feminine end of the scale,
"skies the limit"! We offer a large range of
fabric and trim options, with or without overlays, fancy
ruffle and lace trims, and matching accessories.
