Subject: To those who wear corset under normal clothes...
Hello all
This is a question I always think about, but recently I've had some new lights about it. I usually wear my corsets at home and am very willingly to get out with them, BUT I have a major problem with it: when I put a top over the corset, the laces (in the place where I made the knot, usually the waist) made a big ugly bump (a volume) on my back. I don't know if other corseted woman have this issue, but I would like to know how I could solve it. (normally I have to go out in a large T-shirt if I want to wear a corset)
Some details about my normal clothing: I wear almost exclusively low-waisted pants and skirts (i.e., the "waist band" is actually a "hip band"); I think this is related to the problem. Do pants and skirts with higher waist bands "smash" lacing in the back, so they don't make the ugly volume?
And in this case: how to hide this volume under a dress? I am planning to take in the waist of some of my dresses to use the corset under them, but can not solve the volume issue.
Also, as everyone knows, Brazil is a very hot country, then most of my clothes are very light. Maybe (and please be sincere with me) I'll have to renew my wardrobe if I intend to get out with corset, and purchase some pieces in thicker fabrics so the corset don't show through and the bump in back is minimized?
Please tell me what you think. My english is not in a good mood today, so maybe I have not explained it well.
