I got this for a Krewe costume party. Yeah...... when you order something in a XL or XXL (something told me to order it oversized...) you don't except the cup size to be an Almost A. I also made a panel to place in the back behind the ribbon. I also got a wider ribbon, the one that came with eh corset was just a hair more than a shoe string.

Read the other reviews and believe what they say on sizing! I wear an 8, sometimes a 10. I ordered the 14, knowing that a corset at this price probably ran small, and boy was I correct. There is no flap inside the back (behind the laces), so if you're unable to tighten the laces fully (as I was), you have bare skin showing. There is not a lot of cup shape in the bust area so this flattens rather than flatters up top. The skirt is adorable - no complaints there.

I would love to give this 5 stars but I had what I consider major issues with the seller and their customer service. The costume is really pretty. It fit me well and seemed to be true to size (I was nervous about the sizing because of other buyers' comments). I added some angel wings and a halo and it was perfect for Halloween. My issue with the seller is they waited to the very last minute to ship my order which resulted in me pestering them since I needed it for Halloween.... delivery beyond that point would have been pointless. I contacted them and they basically BS'd me. My twin sister ordered the exact same thing at the exact same time and we both had them delivered to the same place and hers arrived 3 days before mine did (mine came the day before Halloween).

it's okay because it still fits me but i'm a 5ft 3in 36-24-44 with 36D and I had to lace this all the way up after getting what I was shown to get by the size chart, it fits but its barely able to stay on me unless I tighten it up all the way, and that's not how corsets are supposed to work, and the skirt looks nothing like the pick. It would look better if the skirt were longer and actual fabric and not some mesh like stuff.

The description isn't accurate of the garment. It is not made of spandex, the side closure is a zipper (not hook and eye), and the mentioned removable shoulder is nonexistent. It is, however, of decent quality and pretty much what I expected it to be.
