Lauren,
As a member of the Over 50 and Over Weight Club, I agree that a
correctly fitting corset feels just fine on a hot day in Period
Clothing. None of the "parts" touch each other, keeping everything
where it belongs, minimizing sweaty areas. My back also appreciates
the support of the corset. If I could only get a corset to
accommodate "everything" when I ride Sidesaddle, I would look and feel
better. Still working on it.
