General observation about Victorian corsets designed by modern persons
(no matter how "historical" they are!):
If you're big-busted even by a little, please note that many designers
forget that more area *around* the boob itself is more area *up* and
*down* in the corset itself -- ie, they fail to allow for cup size.
If you need that adjustment, just remember that if you add to the
sides of the bust, you need to add to the top of the bust cup too-- so
you get the support you need (nothing to do withoverall coverage-
that's your own lookout!).
Been there, found that out :)
