PART 1 OF MY COSTUME CAME!
Okay the corset MIGHT be a little small. It's not THAT small, it fits, but the back is nearly completely open. *cringe* And I need a longer lace (I'm probably going to get 2 so I can tighten from top and bottom, not just the top like it came) because I can't get the top holes and because of this, it's loose at the top. Standing that isn't so bad but sitting my boobs basically come OUT of it. And if I raise my arms, you see my nipples, lmao! Have to fix that! Thinking about putting some of the gold material I want for the fin (thinking tule) on the inside of the top so that it covers my boobs. Ah the joys (sarcasm) of big boobs.
The BIGGEST problem is that I can't get it on by myself. The hooks in the front are IMPOSSIBLE! Basically, when you do one, the next one comes undone. I had to loosen it so that I could slide it on over my head and then have my sister re-do the ties in the back since I couldn't pull them myself. I'm going to have to get a friend to help me get dressed in it *sigh*. BUT hey, for a $30 corset, it's pretty great realistically.
Anywho, PHOTOS!
I can already see the gears and piping in my head SQUEEE! Not a fan of the bow, though. It may be taken off.
See, standing the whole 'not tight enough at the top cause I missed a hole' isn't bad, but then....
But then when I sit down.... ATTACK OF THE BOOBS! I need a longer lace to get to the top holes.
Lmao it's actually super comfortable. After I took it off, my boobs felt super heavy again. It helps SO MUCH to take the weight of them off my back. It isn't that tight (in fact, when I stand tall and suck in, the laces in the back are loose) and it's plastic boning, not metal like you wear to make your waist smaller, so it's moveable and comfortable. Definitely like! I just need to fix the 'boobs showing' part. I may buy a gold tubetop to wear under it if I have to, or I may just line the inside of the top with the same fabric as my tail, not sure. We'll see! IM EXCITED THOUGH!
