Hi Lana, sorry for my late response! The hourglass corsets do have a bit of a rounded ribcage, but if your floating ribs protrude quite a lot more than your underbust area then it will still probably pull in your lower ribs.
Is waistershaperz a good brand? I honestly ordered them for aesthetic reasons but once I put it on I noticed how the pressured calmed my nervous system I had complex ptsd and anxiety disorder so I decided to google information and your blog which I am in love with was the first thing to pop up related to this kind of information.

Hi Coco, technically that brand does not sell corsets. There are differences between genuine corsets and rubber cinchers, which I outline here.

Hi Anna, the ones with the cotton fashion fabric would be the best for training.
I am about lbs overweight for my stature but I am naturally an inverted triangle shape so I have natural thin arms and legs. I gain weight in my stomach and breast mostly. Since my breasts are very large, I feel like my hips are too narrow and my waist lacks curve. I would like to be thick like I am now but curvy.

Hi Danielle, I tend to prefer the cotton corsets.
In the past, the satin corsets had issues with the steel bones in the back grommets eventually wearing through the fabric and popping out of the channels. Since the cotton is thicker and hardier, this was less of an issue and the corsets seemed to last much longer.
This is the primary reason why I recommend the cotton, but if you purchase the satin the shaping should still be the same, just be aware that there is a higher risk for structural issues down the road. I was wondering how waist training works if you have a bigger arch in hour back and a bigger bum? Hi Dominique, I have a tutorial on how to curve the back steels of a corset to hug your lumbar curve and over the bum more comfortably.
I find that the Morticia corset has quite stiff steels in the back so you would have to bend them to the amount that you prefer. To figure out if the Morticia corset will work for your overall measurements, head over to the lace base and try out the calculator for the Morticia style and size that you want to buy — then compare the ribcage and hip measurements to your own body measurements.
