Example Photos
The photos below feature model Elena wearing the same corset in 3 different sizes: L, XL, and 2X. Elena's measurements are 42" bust and 36" waist, and she typically wears a size XL.
Size XL
-
Front View
This is Elena's recommended size based off of our size charts. In this size, she is able to comfortably close the corset all the way if she wants a more cinched in feeling, or she can leave the lacing with a slight gap if she desires that look, though the fit will not be as tight.
-
Back View
As you can see, there is not a very dramatic lacing gap in either the front or back, but the corset is snug and still helps Elena achieve a proper corseted silhouette.
Size L
-
Front View
This is one size down from Elena's recommended size based off of our size charts. In this size, she is able to get the corset very tight while still keeping a lacing gap in the front and back.

Back View
Sizing down one size is a great option if you want to have a noticable lacing gap, or if you are planning on losing weight. Elena could even size down an additional size to a size M if she wanted a larger lacing gap.
Size 2X
-
Front View
This is one size up from Elena's recommended size based off of our size charts. In this size, she is able to close the lacing gap all the way without having to tighten it too much.
-
Back View
This is a great option if you are hesistant about wearing a tight garment and just want to get a "corseted look" without tightenting.
Other Considerations
Be aware that as you size up or down, the length of the corset and the length of the straps will increase/decrease by 1/4 inch for each size. Elena has a short torso, and you can see that as she sizes up to the 2X, the straps become a little bit loose on her, and the waistline starts to curl up a bit. These issues will not have a great effect on the wearability of the corset but are worth considering if you have a short torso.
