FAQ
Who do you make corsets for
We make corsets for all genders, sizes and shapes of people & ponies (but only human ones, we don’t make corsets for animals)
Shape
The majority of our corsets come in one of two different shapes.
Our curve corsets are wider at the hip, and narrower on the ribs – emphasising a typical hourglass shape.
Our narrow corsets have a wider rib and narrower hip, and will emphasise this shape. These corsets will more naturally people who are a similar shape themselves.
If you are are naturally a more curvy shape but would like something with a narrower fit, or vice versa, please drop us an email on yasmin@riotpony.com so we can advise you on which corset may be suitable or discuss a custom order!
Sizing
All corsets are sized by waist size in inches. We normally recommend you choose a size 4-8″ below your natural waist size (depending on the shape of the corset, and your natural shape).
Our curve cinchers are very curvy & are designed for people with a big hip spring (wide hips in comparison to your waist), so the size worn can be up to 8 inches below your natural waist size. If you like this shape, but don’t naturally have a big hip spring, going for 6-8 inches below your natural waist will allow the corset to fit more comfortably over the hips
For all other corset shapes, we recommend choosing a corset that is 4-6″ below your natural waist. If you’re at all unsure, please feel free to drop us an email with your measurements and the shape you’d like to achieve & we can let you know which corset we think will fit you best or discuss a custom order
