Care and storage:
Do not dry clean. Spot clean if necessary.
If not stored on a mannequin, simply hang skirt on clip hanger or put corset in padded container.
Corset wearing and storage instructions:
- All corsets have ¼” spiral steel boning, for maximum comfort and movement. These corsets are intended for fashion only and not to be used for waist training.
- Always loosen laces before putting on and taking off corset.
- Start tightening laces by evenly pulling the excess, then working your way towards hanging laces from the opposite end.
- When undressing: loosen the laces at the back as much as needed, before slipping over your head.
- After wearing, let the corset air out overnight, exposing the lining.
