Featured Corset: CS-411 Underbust in Gun Metal Gray: bit.ly/Xiwghs - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
I started seasoning mine today i got a cs-426 hourglass and its so much more comfortable and supportive then anything I've bought on other websites
That just made our day! Thank you for being a customer!
i remember when i first heard of seasoning a corset i thought of sprinkling a special powder on it
It is a rather silly term for something corset related!
Lmao me too!
You did well to make these informative videos to be of such aid to your potential/current customers. İ hope your business is thriving because you deserve it.
Thank you Ekim, you are so kind!
Wearing a corset helps with the back pain from H boobs, and I got my first Orchard Corset corset yesterday. High-quality corset, with a fair price and fast shipping. Love it. Definitely purchasing more in the future.
Quinn Enestvedt I just ordered one. How fast did you get yours considering everything going on?
@@ashleyramirez2878 3 days to get out the door, then 1 day delivery.
We're so glad to hear that!! Thank you so much for sharing! Be sure to reach out with any questions or concerns ;)
I just got my very first Orchard corset in the mail!!! it fits like a dream! I'm on my last half hour of my two hour wear. So excited!!! :D Thanks to everyone at Orchard corset!
That is super, Katie! Happy Corseting!
How do you know when your corset is seasoned (enough) and ready for tighter lacing?
Some say after a week or so others say a few days (I just realized your comment is 7 years old sorry)
@@rinaracollins7943 hope they figured it out by now XD
I have a 30" corset that I love. She definitely knows my body so well and I certainly love her. But I've lost weight and she's only providing about 2-3" or reduction. So I'll probably be ordering a 26" soon. But this info is good to know because I never truly seasoned my 30" correctly and I popped all the boning and a busk. It is a nightmare. I truly recommend seasoning your corset well because it causes a lot less trouble for the future.
Thank you for this. I decided this year I'm gonna wear a corset for my job at the renaissance faire and I just ordered 2 online (because it was cheaper than buying 1) and I really don't want to damage me or the corset
Hi Cheri, stopping by to get my first lesson... I ordered my Corset on August 20, 2013 and received it on August 22, 2013. I can't believe how quickly it came, EXCELLENT SERVICE!!!!!
I never write a poem until I tighten my corset. This is very helpful. Thank you.
+EXCUSE ME! I AM THE ARTS! We are so glad to hear that corseting is part of your inspiration to writing poetry! Thank you for sharing :)
May I suggest if you have no hips order the 411 it makes you look like you have that coke bottle shape. Ahhh " Yes a hour glass with hips now. Thank you Orchard Corset you Girls ROCK!!!!!
Exactly.
I love the gun metal color!! Thanks for this video i am still working on breaking in my 411 and this was helpful.
thank you! very helpful. just ordered a corset from orchard and very excited. Im a newbie to corsets so this is wonderful that OC has these helpful vids available.:)
Thank You sooooo much for this video! I just received my Orchard Corset today and was a little lost, I didn't know the ties could be pulled so far apart :) I thought I had purchased something to small. Thanks again :D
madison leigh Glad you found it helpful!
Waiting for my first corset to get shipped and I'm so excited!😁
This was quite helpful!
Thank you for thy thorough explanation
Oh I'm looking up these videos because I just bought some corsets from you guys. Small world!
i like this one very beautifully made cant wait to get one
I LOVE this series. So helpful! 😍👍😍
Hi Kasha! We have loads of videos to help you with your corseting journey! You can also hop on our live chat as well! Happy corseting!
This is very informative. Thank you. I'm glad I'm seasoning my corset correctly. (I watch this just to make sure I'm doing it correctly)
I love all these videos they are all really very helpful♡
Thank you for this informational video! I got my corset last year at my nearby ren faire and I just now was looking into how to wear the corset that was sized to fit me (It cinches back and front style) and I wouldn't have known about bending the boning.
I also wouldn't have known about seasoning the corset! They didn't teach me that!
So glad you found it helpful!
Very helpful, thank you.
i think you look great, corsets can be very versatile, i wear mine with dark jeans sometimes
Question: when damage has been done due to lack of seasoning, is it irreparable? I have cause the bones to poke through due to lack of knowledge and I’m super sad!!
This is super helpful. I dont think I would have known where to start had I not been pointed towards your videos by (I think it was Katie from What Katie did to tell you the truth) someone. I am wearing it first time today. Its snug but not tight. I have worn a medical brace before so knew what to expect. This is much more comfortable as I can still breathe whilst maintining a nice upright position. I found bending easier in this too...of course the medical one had 1/2 inch steel struts not bones so its different but I am glad I knew what to expect. Thank you again for all your advice. I am in the UK so I ordered a steel boned mesh waspie online here. I dont even know if you ship abroad but thats for the future. Keep safe!
We're so glad that you're comfortable, that's fantastic! Don't hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions at all :)
good instruction and demonstration.
Those jeans you speak of.. I'd like to have those. Whenever I buy jeans that fit, thet will be loos after a couple times of wearing them :/
Freja Bruus - Levi 501 Shrink to Fit jeans. I found mine at a Levi's outlet store. They do not have "men's or womens", they are one style for both genders. Originally, these were a big hit in the 80's :-)
Never put your jeans in the dryer. Always air dry!
I may have laced my underbust corset a little too tight for my first wear during seasoning (after tightening after 45 minutes). I don't see any damage, and it fit my body very well. I don't see any warping or breakage, just very gradual curvature in the boning. Should I still be worried, or just continue seasoning it (but more loosely/carefully)?
I wouldn't be worried, Kirsten. Just take your time over the next week or so while you finish seasoning.
Cheri, I have been breaking in my new 411 corset in for just over a week now, going from 2 hours a day to now 5 hours a day and just really taking my time. I am now down an inch in my corsetting which is nice. However, as you mentioned in your video, I have a small gap at the underbust. I can get rid of it somewhat by lacing tighter, but then wind up with this horrible protrusion of back fat behind me. Unsightly!
Does this ever go away, or do I have too short of a torso for even this model?!
I would love if you made a corset with the hip gores! They give such a dramatic curve :33
We will have a Level 4 out soon....(well..a couple of months)
This grey satin is absolutely an amazing color. I hope you have it on your website. For some reason, i couldn't find that color.
That was a limited edition! Good to hear feedback for future limited editions.
JUST WHAT I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR ! I i have a hard time trying to go into my cs426, and like what you said the top and the bottom is empty and im so worried.I have a big tummy and i though that was the reason. Was also wondering if its tight enough ? should i pull more at the top and bottom so that it will hug my shape more? (i find the bottom and top string are not tight enough?) How long will this cs426 take to season? The front metal is abit in the way and i have a hard time sitting down :(
Okay so I just got mine today and I tightened it to me and I know you said it shouldn't be snug until you season it but I seem to have a lot of room up top and down at the bottom and I can't hide it under my clothes very well. I've already had to return the first one because it was too big so this one is currently two sizes smaller than what I measured at. Do I need to go smaller
Hi Kate! Until it's been seasoned, it might be tricky to hide under clothing, it's totally normal to have gapping top and bottom. Get in touch with our sizing team so we can check the fit!
Hello i just received my 201 short but feel like the top fits really loose but from the waist and hipbone fits perfect is this normal the first time around before seasoning?
Hmmm, it might be perfectly fine! But, send us photos and your measurements and we can check the fit! info@orchardcorset.com
Hi. I recently purchased the blue denim cs-331... The purpose I need it for is waist training, did I buy the wrong one for my first corset? I found that I have to slip it on instead because it doesn't have the front busk. And the front buckles are for adornment only can I just leave them unbuckled while I waist train? Also, is there something we can't do with the corset on? Laying down or bending down is ok to do? Sorry about all the questions!
There is not a reason you cannot waist train in that corset, but the closed busk does make it more of a challenge. You will learn to bend from the legs :). Laying (or even sleeping) in your corset is fine. We don't recommend you work out in your corset.
I always compared seasoning a corset to restringing & tuning a guitar. With both, you take time for them to adjust before adding more tension.
What a great analogy!
I just got my corset today and i started seasoning it. I just noticed that the back boning is so straight and my back is curvy (lordosis) i could push it in an inch! Will the corset fit me correctly after seasoning it?
dedo4 yes it should. As you gradually tighten it over the next several days the bones of the corset should mold to your body.
that corset is so beautiful!! :-O
I just received my first corset and when I tried it on the fabric in the back did not cover the entire lace space. Does that mean it's too small or it will eventually fit after seasoning?
It could be! Can you snap a photo in your corset, front and back, so we can see the fit to be sure it's a good size and style for you? Sign on to our live chat feature on our website or email us at info@orchardcorset.com thank you!
If one is starting out in waist training, and has already broken in the corset, how many inches should one cinch-down in the corset from the natural waist? I'm not referring to goals, but am talking about the cinch-down from the natural waist to the corseted waist (in first starting out with waist training).
Once the corset is seasoned...whatever is comfortable for you. That will be different for everyone as some people or more firm and others more soft, some have more length to work with and different tolerances.
Do you loosen your corset when taking off during seasoning and also should you after seasoning? Thanks
Alyssa Bridges your corset should always be very loose when you are fastening or unfastening the busk.
I just received my OC corset and I've watched this video several times... I'm unsure if while I'm seasoning it if I'm supposed to be tying it?? While watching this video it looks like you are just cinching it in so thats its snug but not actually tying it. Can you please clarify that for me? Thanks.
HI Michelle, Yes-you need to actually tie it while seasoning-just not really tight at first.
For corset seasoning, do you have to season a corset every time on each buy? What if you've already been through corset training, have the shape of your old corset and bought a new one (not of a different size, but different color/pattern, or maybe just renewing it, or something?); would you have to season this new one just as rigorously as the first?
Hi XRaykaX, yes, you will have to season each new corset you get. You don't have the shape of your old corset, your old corset has YOUR shape, so any new corset you get will need to be seasoned to your unique curves. Hope that helps!
*****
It helped a lot, thank you for the speedy reply!
mine didnt come laced bi-directionally it was laced in a v straightfoward way but i still like it ^W^
Well I sort of messed up. I got the 411 in black cotton and wore it loose for about two hours, then tightened it some (could still fit my hand down through the front without mashing my stomach or pulling hard on the corset). I then got in bed to rest for two hours, planning to take it off. Slept for eight hours in my corset (on my back, never rolled around). I hope it will still end up fitting me.
The corset doesn't have any obvious damage, but my shape isn't the same on my back as it is standing up. Could this event have ruined my poor corset? It's such a sturdy, cute little thing and I somehow already care about it.
Just be very diligent about seasonally properly. If you warped the boning in the back..that will not undue. It is best not to try and sleep in your corset (even for just a couple of hours) until it is fully seasoned :)
Thank you for your fast reply. When looking at the corset (in my hands, not on my body) the back boning is still straight. I'm glad I didn't ruin it the very first day I wore it.
I'm doing more research before even putting it on again, and won't sleep in it til it's been seasoned.
ChelleEve Perfect!
I'm planning to buy two or three corsets in the next few days because I want a few different styles. Is it ok to season multiple corsets at the same time? So wear one for the two hours, take it off and wear the next for two hours? Or is it better to just focus on one at a time?
+Jenna Larson Hello! You can absolutely season multiple corsets at a time. It's best to give your body a break though between wears. You could season one in the morning and then another in the evening. :)
+Orchard Corset Awesome! Thanks so much! I can't wait to get my first check so I can spend it all :P
My corset has the round shoe strings but they do come in from the middle, the strings are tightened from the bottom. Is this the wrong kind as I can not tighten it?
Hey there! So there aren't a set of 'bunny ears' in the middle, correct? You can re-lace your corset to the method that we show in our videos to follow along, we have this video that shows how to lace your corset, we hope it helps! Let us know if we can guide you to a different video, too. th-cam.com/video/DkLZpqlssRQ/w-d-xo.html
Can I go back to my previous one when seasoning the new one? I mean, after the recommended 2 hours...
+Eliana Plácido Yes, you most definitely can alternate while you are still seasoning your new corset! Thank you for taking the time to properly break in the new one and congrats on the purchase.
I just purchased my first corset right now - the CS-411 to be exact! My wedding is in October and I want to make sure I give myself enough time to season my corset. My wedding dress has yet to come in, so I won't be able to try on my corset underneath before the 30 day return policy. My concern is that the corset will be apparent under my wedding dress. It is a mermaid style. Have you heard anyone having issues with it showing through?
How do you tell that your corsets fully seasoned? I know it hugs your body better but is there any other tell tail signs?
Hanni3Wanni3 Yes, there are a couple of other changes you will notice. The hooks and pins should pop right into place much easier than at the very beginning. The laces will also glide easily through the grommets after seasoning of the corset. Patience is the trick and will be rewarded with a beautiful fit and fabulous curves!
Thankyou :) Been seasoning a white longline corset its starting to feel so much more comfortable and the fronts doing up much better but i still feel its not seasoned fully yet.
I have seasoned my corset for 6 days wearing it two hours a day and after 30 mins tighting it more. Now I'm on day 7 and at the top is still loose like when I put on a tank top over it it looks like I got on football gear. The bottom is a little loose but once I put something over it its not noticeable. What am I doing wrong?
If the corset is closed at the back then it is too big, if not, you should try closing it up a bit more in back.
I have a question: I’m interested in buying a 19 inch one and I was wondering if it’s possible to wear it as a 21 inches size and in some occasions to cinch it to a 19 inches size.
Our corsets are sold in even increments (16", 18", 20" etc). But you could buy a custom corset in any size you're interested in through a custom corset company. Corsets can be adjusted within a few inches depending on how closed or open you have the laces in the back. Visit our website to chat with our team if you're interested in finding a corset of ours! www.orchardcorset.com/pages/corset-sizing
@@orchardcorset thanks a lot!!❤️ so it’s possible to buy a 19/18 inches one and to lace it up to a 21 inch size without ruining it! Isn’t it? What I mean is: is it possible to damage the corset cinching it to a size which is not the tightest possible for that particular corset?
im a 26 inch at my waist before the corset, putting on the corset and measuring with the corset on im still 26 inch. Am I doing something wrong?
Probably got too big of a size...... typically (at least according to the instructions that I got from my physical therapist)
-if wearing for back support and are not chunky around the middle then go 2 inches below your natural waist size when sucking in your stomach and don't go past 1 inch gap left open.
-if wearing for back support and are chunky then go 4 to 6 inches smaller (I'm chunky w/ a 42 waist and am in a 36 inch of the cs426 with hipties) and don't tie past 2 inches for gap, please keep grommets parallel to your spine...
-if wearing for waist training and are not chunky go 4 inches below waist size and "season" (why season? why? makes ZERO sense as it ain't food.) appropriately but make sure grommets are parallel to the spine.
-if wearing for waist training and are chunky could get away with 8 inches smaller but again, keep the grommets parallel to the spine when seasoning and when training down.
Hi is it possible to season a corset in a day by wearing it on and off 2 hours or less at a time 3 times in 1day? Or must u do it over a few days n not all in one day?
Hi Kat,
No, you will definitely need more than a day to properly season your corset. It will season faster if you get a couple of wears in each day. Also corset fabric and fit will help determine how quickly it seasons as well.
Ok thank you
Why is the cs411 no longer made with the high shine satin? The newer 'premium satin' looks matte.
The color satin is still shiny and glossy. The black has recently been matte, but we may switch back to the shiny satin.
I have seasoned my corset, and today is the first day that I've worn my corset "tight" for corset training. When I sit down in the corset, I get quite a bit of mid back pain, but when I stand, my back doesn't hurt. The grommets in the back are parallel. Do you know what the problem might be?
Is the pain like something poking or more just a soreness?
Neither, actually. It's just simple back pain, which as not normal for me. I have no back pain experience in that area.
olivesandpaper hmmm. I don't know. I get what feels like muscle pain when I am breaking in a new corset (I think it's how straight I am sitting). but we never recommend wearing a corset if it causes actual pain...as opposed to some discomfort while your body and the corset get to know each other.
Will these shoe under clothes? How long should you wear the corset? Do you have a model that can be slept in?
Under very fitted clothing, corsets can be tricky to hide. Easier if you buy our satin laces as they are less bulky. We have a blog on sleeping in your corset I recommend you read :) How long you wear your corset is a personal choice determined by your level of comfort and what your goals are. Some women wear them 18 hours or more a day and other just 4 or 5 hours.
Do the spiral steel boned corsets need to be broken in as well, or does this video apply only to the flat steel boned corsets?
All of our corsets have both flat & spiral steel bones in them. You should season them for your comfort, to improve the fit of the corset and to break the corset in to being tightlaced. Let us know if you have more questions!
@@orchardcorset Thanks for your answer. The reason I asked is because the first corset I bought from you in 2012 had all flat steel bones in it. This video was made during that time, so I wasn't sure whether it applies only to your old entirely flat steel boned corsets.
@@shaiyacoprez2812 Oh, okay! We would still recommend that you break that one in. Although you might find that a newer style with flat & spiral steel bones would be more comfortable too. Let us know if we can help you out! Just pop over to our live chat here: www.orchardcorset.com
Hello, how do we lace in to a corset with hip ties?
In the same way! We like to loosen the hip ties before lacing up the corset and then tighten the hip ties after the back is cinched. :) Reach out to our team for more help!
So get the idea to season it properly, how does one figure out if they're going beyond the recommended 2 inches to break it in?
It's 2 inches down from your natural waist size. But as long as you have some room and it isn't cinched tight...just snug...you will be fine.
***** alright cool thanks alot! Got my new corset and wore it my first day yesterday. so snug but too tight.
If I’m a natural 34 waist but I want to be a 28 in what size to I get?
Hi Tati! It depends on your complete measurements, talk with our sizing team, they'll be able to help you out: www.orchardcorset.com/pages/corset-sizing
When I tried on my corset the first time it seemed too straight for my body. Is that something that will change when I've used it for s while or do I have to get another one?
It could be too narrow in the rib and hip for your figure, you want to be able to cinch your waistline in without pinching your ribs and hips as those can't be modified with a corset. Reach out to our team if you need help choosing a corset that's a good fit for your figure!
@@orchardcorset Thank you I will! I did the quick measurement guide on the website and was suggested a size 20 hourglass corset.
@@orchardcorset Also btw, do you ship overseas?
@@YuliaLinderoth We do ship overseas! Our team is available to help via live chat now too if you'd like to get reassurance from a real person, too :)
What side are the hooks supposed to be on? The left?
+Itzel Perez Great question and often asked. The hooks are on the right and the pins are on the left when wearing your corset. So glad you are watching the videos and learning useful tips to corseting :)
i've been wearing my 411 corset for about 1,5 week, 2 hours a day the first times and then 3-5 hours the last couple of days. it's still not "hugging" me. i've got pretty big gaps under my bust and in the hip area. maybe i should lace it tighter? i can lace it harder but ofc i'm scared to ruin it after watching a lot of youtube videos and how everyone says how important it is to break it in properly and not lace it too tight the first times. what do you think? :)
HI Sofie, it is OK to tighten it up a bit more with each wearing. If you have cotton or brocade it does take longer.
*****
Thank you for your answer :) I have satin but I laced it tighter this time and it feels and looks better. It's still a tiny gap but not as big as before. :) and I guess that's just normal since my corset is pretty new ^^,
Sofie Karlsson Perfect! It sounds like you are on the right track :)
If it don't hug you now it will never hug you. They say it will hug you but it don't..... after you wearing it they won't give you all of your money back that's the catch. Mine was too much Gap in the back too much Gap in the front at the bottom plus it was not long enough... I returned mom the next day and I told them this nothing but crap. this was just a waste of money but I did get my money back even though I had to pay for it to be shipped back to them. They tried their best to get me to keep it for a few weeks and I knew if I kept it for a few weeks I wouldn't be able to return it
Would it be unhealthy for the corset in the breaking-in period if the wearer were to wear the corset for longer than two hours? I started breaking in my corset yesterday, and have been wearing it "loosely" as suggested for the breaking-in process, but I have been wearing it for longer than two hours.
I wouldn't wear too much longer. The idea is not only to allow the boning to mold, but the thread and fabric to pull evenly and gradually.
All right. Thank you for the quick reply!
I'm currently seasoning and I'm afraid that one side is bending more than the other because my right obliques are slightly more toned than my left so I have just the slightest bit more curvature. I'm afraid that it'll warp because the right side feels tighter than my left and I don't know how to fix it. Any advice?
Everyone has differences from one side of their body to the other and they are typically only obvious to ourselves. ;) Don't worry about 'warping' the corset as the point of seasoning it is to mold it to the shape of your body and if you are shaped a little differently on one side, that is what the corset needs to do too!
Thank you so much for responding quickly. But is it okay that one side feels tighter than the other? It feels weird and I've been playing around with the laces but I can't seem to even out the tightness.
LadyConqueress As long as you are keeping your laces relatively parallel as you are cinching your corset, you should be just fine. If you'd like some one to have a look at it, send a photo of the front and back with a description of what you are experiencing to one of our sizing experts at info@orchardcorset.com
Thank you very much for your responses! I greatly appreciate it
***** is it normal for the corset to close fully at the back? Just got main today and it fits great but I managed to tighten it all the way and am able to breath ok but I thought your met to gradually be able to tighten it fully.
How do you know if it fits correctly if it's gonna be that loose before it's seasoned?
Can you tell me which way is up?
For our corsets the pins will be on your left and the hooks on your right!
I started breaking my new corset.. my natural waist is at 23" so I got a size 18".. I was able to lace up and I love learning the whole process... but I have a very pronounced backside, so the corset feels like it forces me to tuck in my butt... should I just arch my back naturally and let the corset know me... or listen to the corset and tuck in my butt... LOL.. is it normal that it does that? I just don't want to work it too hard in the first week... :D
HI Vanessa, did you get the longline? perhaps you just need a shorter corset.
Is Cs426 a long line?
vanessa rocca Yes it is :)
so that means i cannot use it? :( i'll have to buy another one?
vanessa rocca I am not sure, as without seeing it, I am not sure. I don't imagine you would want to force yourself into some awkward position, but if the corset is only forcing a more correct posture then it should be fine. Or if you take up serious waist training and need a sleeping corset, that could also be a use.
can I sit while seasoning my corset?
You sure can :)
how do you if your corset is upside down?
Hi Sara,
For our corsets, the pins are on your left and the loops/hooks on your right.
How do we deal with the mothers apron hanging down in the corset.
We love this trick from Lucy! th-cam.com/video/40rjz-rGtS0/w-d-xo.html
Hi I am on my first week day 5 of seasoning my corset , I've been doing 2 hours each day, am I met to be adding an hour every day?
persis26 okwi26 Our suggestion is to wear it for no more than a couple of hours at a time as you are seasoning, but you could certainly do that more than once each day, just make sure to give your body a decent break and don't overtighten the corset, just make it snug.
Ok so couple hours a day that totals to 8hours in a day
persis26 okwi26 keep in mind that the goal is to season the corset over time. Please don't rush it. If you warp the corset during the seasoning process all the time you've spent seasoning it will be wasted. It is NOT an exact science.
Ok I will keep wearing it 2 hours a day for 2 weeks. Thanks for your help
My corset at the top (bust area)is lose and wavy what does that mean?? Should I have gotten a corset with more of a straight up and down?
Hi Kizzy! Has it been seasoned yet? If you can, snap some photos and send those along with your measurements to our sizing team and they can check the fit! info@orchardcorset.com or pop on our live chat feature on our site :)

Yes it can. Lucy's Corsetry has some great tips on how to do so.

I'm such an idiot...not trying to be funny but I thought she was holding a sub it the beginning...had to keep the volume down so I don't wake my son. But...great video!!!
I couldnt wear mine at all. It stuck out at the bottom and on my back. Plus it was too short and I gave them my measurements. This wont make you lose weight only eating less and exercising this just helps you look good only if it fits you right. Then too many complaints that it does not fit right. I returned mine and got my 86 dollars back.
We're sorry to hear that your corset didn't work out for you! You're right, only diet & exercise will help you to lose weight... a corset can only help to bring in your lowest two floating ribs to nip in your waistline shape.

If you want to email us your measurements we can see if there is a better option for you or if perhaps there's a company that makes a better fit for your figure. info@orchardcorset.com Thank you!

Hello! A simple error, thanks for noticing that. We updated our "How to Lace yourself" but forgot to correct the link in all the places. The older video wasn't as helpful as we wanted it to be, this updated version is much better! :) th-cam.com/video/eYi_GdnpK9k/w-d-xo.html
@@orchardcorset Thank you. Hopefully once the pandemic is where I can afford things again, I can get one of your lovely corsets and try this out. I'm the meantime I can at least share with a friend that got a corset awhile back but is only now getting to start using it. Sending her the link for this and seasoning,
