Tuxedo corset for $14.99 + free shipping
Tuxedo style corset. Black gloss knit fabric with slight stretch and rhinestone button details. Removable shoulder straps, boning and hook & eye back closure.
I have this corset! In fact, I got it at Oh Cheri. It's very comfortable & looks cute with a pair of black pants or skirt and a jacket. The back is netting rather than the satiny stretch fabric all the way around, so it's see through (it looks like the back of a longline bra).
I wish I could figure out a way to take it in. I "went paleo/primal" at the beginning of the year and now it's too big.
@lavikinga: Have you tried a dry cleaner? Many times they have a seamstress/tailor on site. Of course, it would probably be cheaper to buy another one...a tailor will probably charge you more than $15 for alterations.
@ohcheri: At this price, it would be cheaper to buy another one :) I see what you did there!
@lavikinga: ;-)
You can also use discount code MARCH10 for 10% off, expires tomorrow!
Sexy yet, tasteful. Bravo!
I have this too, and the only time I've worn it is when I tried it on. This is the only thing (out of more than I should admit) that I've purchased from @ohcheri and didn't like.
Totally gonna use that 10% off code for something else, though. Awww yeah.
Edit: At this price point, you get what you get and you don't throw a fit.
When did bustiers become corsets?
@lavikinga: What size did you get? Maybe someone would buy it from you used.
OhCheri things are fun. Quality is good enough. Things are cheap enough to be torn apart without a second thought.
Wander over to corset-story dot com in the UK for examples of similar items also referred to as corsets.
@matt1976: I found this on a lingerie site and it might help with any confusion. It appears the words are interchangeable for the most part:
"Bustier:
A bustier is a sleeveless top that spans the bust to the waist (sometimes touching the hips or the top area of the butt) and it is worn either as lingerie or as outer clothing. It is form fitting and it may sometimes have garters attached to it. Modern bustiers now have thin lacy straps but most bustiers are like tube tops.
Corset:
The corset was developed more than a millennium ago. It is a close fitted boned undergarment that shapes a woman’s torso. It can either extend from above or below the bust to the hips, giving that appropriate binding effect to have a flatter waistline....A more prominent difference is that a corset does not always cover the breasts while a bustier always does. A corset that covers the chest area is called an over-bust corset."
This could be referred to as a corset or an over the bust corset.
@browncoat42: There is a pretty big market for used ladies undergarments ....
