Oubliette - Corsets abound


I love corsets. I have a green chinese silk corset, a red two piece corset, a black wench corset, a mid nipple longline corset, a white waist sincher corset, a black waist sincher corset, a burgandy corselette, a black cross front corset top, and I'm very sure I am missing one or two.. since I know I have 8 of them that sinch and about 3 that don't. Math was never my strong point.

So when I put on corsets in SL, I'm pretty dissatisfied with them. Why? cause they lay on the skin and they don't cinch the waist. Thats sad. A corset should make you want for breath. The fun of a corset is creating a body type that you don't have naturally, or that isn't available in nature at all honestly.

I made two kinds, Real sinchers. Corsets that squish your SL body into something wholy unrealistic and beautimus. Ones a real sincher and the other is a long line corset.. means it smooshes all your parts so they spill out the top and the bottom.. giving you a nice round butt and tits that sit up around your neck, where they belong. They come in lots of colors and styles.

The Unreal cinchers, the black corset here, are called that because in order for your waist to get that small, you need to first have your spine removed. SL isn't real life. We get to play out a fantasy here that we can't in real life. I'm totally good with making things that would be unrealistic. The texture is hand drawn by me to look like latex and have JUST the right shine.

The long line corset is built with external boning that is colored differently than the rest of the corset. There are even more colors in this, including, if you dare, the Nightmare set. The long line was the hardest to make, because getting all the prims to flow nicely together was a chalange. They say if you don't learn something in a day, its a wasted day. I learned.. I learned a LOT that day.
