My corset is very beautiful. The corset itself is comfortable, the shoulder ache isnt but I take it off when it starts(maybe its a newbie thing) This is my first so I cant really compare it. I have seen some reviews on the corset group on myspace, nobody had anything bad to say. I'd say Google it. I dont see anything wrong with it, but I have nothing but my expectations to compare it to and Iike it.

I haven't bought any Timeless Trends corsets, but you can get an off-the-rack at search.ebay.com/meschantes for around the same price, if you want to have a few more options.

I've heard good things about TT corsets regarding their quality, but their also supposed to be not incredibly curvy, whereas Meschantes off-the-rack underbusts are a little curvier. It all depends on what shape you like the appearance of most, and which will best suit your body. And, of course, TT has a larger selection for the price.

They make all underbust corsets. All the info is on their site. Yes it is off the rack and I know this isnt as good as custom. I have heard people get sore when the first start out and it goes away but Im just wondering if that soreness usually happens in the neck/shoulder area. I dont wear it all day as Ive read u dont want to start off that way(ive been reading alittle into it).
Im wearing it right now :) and dont feel achy so I dunno maybe its a getting used to thing.
I got a 28 inch corset. 4 inches less than my natural waist.
Oh and I have heard good reviews about these from people who usually wear corsets, but I know every BODY is differ.

yea, I put it on myself. I found it aches a few mins later, maybe that is it. Found it also came with a bit of headache(took it off then). BUT I found I didnt have anypain yesterday and I wore it for a good while :) YAie! I was worrying abit about it, if it was me or the corset doing it.
Thanks

I just started waist training 3 1/2 weeks ago. I spent two weeks "breaking in" my Vollers underbust corset (wearing it bet. 2 and 6 hours per day, not laced particularly tightly, but enough to know it was there) so it could mold to my figure, and stretch where it needed to. (Often when corsets fall apart they have been laced too tight without being broken in). Last week I started actual waist training. I cinched in two inches smaller than my natural waist, and wore the corset at that size for 2 hours each day for three days. Then, on day four, I increased my time (but still at the same measurement) to four hours, for three days. Then one day off. The next day I started in again, same measurement, increased time to 6 hours for three days; then 8 hours for three days (that's where I am today). After the next six days (three at six hours, three at 8 hours), and a day off, I will finally increase the measurement by 1/2 inch (so I'm now cinching in 2 1/2 inches smaller than my natural waist) and start the schedule over (2 hours for 3 days, 4 hours for 3 days, day off, 6 hours for 3 days, 8 hours for 3 days)--you get the idea.
If you follow a gradual, practical schedule like this for serious waist training, perhaps you won't have the problems you are having. And the rule is if you suddenly can't stand it any more, LOOSEN YOUR STAYS! Simple 'nuff.
