Isn't that the whole point of corsets?

corsets aren't eye-candy for males or meant to be painful...
corsets are to show off for the other women (come on - you know i'm right!) and if the guys like what they say...even better :)
and if you have a proper corset, it isn't painful, it's awesomeness :)

thanks Joan, but with the working out and all that, my girls have diminished
not to the point where i won't wear a corset...but almost!
 
Just a swift kick to the topic to remind everyone!

If you want to join in the fun and you still haven't made arrangements for a corset (whether it's your first time or if your drawer is starting to overflow), I found a couple other sources that seem to be moderately priced and halfway-decent quality:

http://www.corset-story.com/authentic/authentic-steel-and-boned-corsets.html

http://www.orchardcorset.com/cscorsets

http://shop.ebay.com/siuks-123/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=&_trksid=p3686 <-- this seller is where I got the one I'm wearing this year (wore it to a SymX show in MA, but MetalRose is the only one who saw me in it, so that saves me the trouble of needing to buy another!)
 
as an update, this year the corset photo will not be held in the lobby. it will be held outside:
https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=172266476171754
(for those not on FB, here is the text:
The annual "Corset Night" tradition (established 2005) will return Friday night at this year's festival!

The photo will be taken *outside* this year, as participation has grown so much that we are unable to accomodate everyone inside the venue.

Renowned concert photographer, Allen Ross Thomas of Artist Xposure will shoot the group photo and also smaller groups of 10-12 ladies so that everyone's "ensemble" will be visible. ;)

Please meet outside the venue entrance immediately after Voyager's set, and as always, all ladies are invited to participate in the fun!
)
 
All right, ladies. If you're looking for new corsets for this year, now is a good time to check ebay - there are a TON of corsets that I've seen on corset-story.com for $75+ going for $35 and under - overbust, underbust, you name it.

The catch is that they're coming from China; my assumption is that this is where they were originally manufactured before being sent to the UK (where corset-story is located), and that they're selling them directly now (or else this particular retailer got them in bulk for much cheaper than the UK).

But free shipping from China often takes 3 to 6 weeks, sometimes as much as 8, so if you want to take the risk, do it now while you have a few months to return/exchange/find an alternative!
 
If you want a lot of bang for your buck, go with http://www.timeless-trends.com

These are steel-boned and last a long time. I'm used to wearing a 22" under-bust (from a natural 27") all day and they're very comfortable. I've had the same corsets for the past TEN YEARS and they're still just as good as the day I bought them, so yeah, these are my fave.
