If you wondered how women achieved incredibly slender waists, it was through the wearing of a corset. A corset can, over time, reduce a waist from a healthy circumference to as little as twelve inches. Although this is a little extreme for many women and is highly unrealistic in today's society, women at one time tried to get as close to this ideal as possible. They wanted to have a waist that was small enough for a man to span with his hands. They would lace the backs so tightly that they often needed help or a bed post to be able to tighten them fully.
Because the waist was so constricted when a woman wore a corset, it pushed her internal organs out of place. It also made it difficult to breathe and women were prone to fainting. Over time, with habitual wear, the waist often became permanently narrower. Although it gave a desirable body shape the health problems they caused could be severe.
Women stopped wearing corsets as much for a while. The feminist movement decried them as a way to keep women tied down and powerless. As women left the home and became more active, they needed to move more freely and corsets were simply unacceptable. As well, styles changed and the wasp-waist fell out of fashion. A corset used stays that were traditionally made of whale bone. When the hunting of whales fell out of favor, so did whalebone stays and these foundation garments fell even further out of popularity. The bra was perhaps the final nail in the coffin for some time. Suddenly, women could support their breasts without the restriction of a full corset.
Recently, however, people are interested in wearing them again. There are different types of corsets and all serve purposes. Often, people who have back problems or other medical conditions may wear a corset in order to give the body added support and allows the body to heal itself. Others allow you to reshape your body or disguise a few extra pounds while giving lift and support to the bust line.
There is a darker side to corsets as well. Body modification fans and people with specific fetishes and desires will often wear corsets made of PVC, leather and other extreme materials. There is one fashion designer who wears a corset and is well known for his extremely small waist. People are actually removing their bottom ribs in order to add to the way that the body is reshaped.
Many stores now sell corsets and you can find them in places that may surprise you. Once limited to websites and specialty shops, they can now be found in many upscale lingerie and department stores. There are a range of different styles. You can now pick ones that cover the bust, that stop underneath the breasts and ones that focus strictly on the waist. They are available in a range of beautiful and feminine fabrics such as satin, silk and brocade.
You want to make sure that your corset fits properly. Depending on whether or not you are planning to shrink your waist, you may want to order your corset smaller than your actual measurements. When you are shopping for a corset, pay attention to the description of how much they will shrink your waist area. You may find that if body alteration is not something you want, a corset that is designed for that purpose may be uncomfortable. Shopping smart can mean you find a corset that is comfortable and beautiful as well.
