This may seem silly. Yet i find the biggest downside to wearing a corset is the attention they attract.
Wear it as an undergarment... this would seem to be the answer. Yet, the bottom of the corsets always seem to fall below the bottom of my shirts ( of average length ) and don't like to lay under jeans.
Keeping in mind that summer, with it's thinner fabrics is on it's way, any ideas ?
Full skirted dresses, they're cool in summer, and will usually hide a corset (especially if you pop a crinoline on over it) also tunic tops are a nice way to hide the corset
If you are petite or have a short torso then you need a short hip corset. Try looking at these. Scarlett's Corsets These are made for petite women or those with a shorter than average torso who want a corset that can be worn with low rise jeans.
OR, you can stick to A-line or full skirt dresses and skirts which will hide the abdomen bulge.
