Other types of underbust corsets

Waspie: This is a short underbust and practically a wider belt that goes around a woman’s stomach. It helps to reduce waist size, and this is less constricting. You can wear them only for fashion purposes,  layered over shirts and dresses. This is also available as steel boned corset which is ideal for waisted training. This is ideal for the girls who have shorter torsos and fuller bust. Here the boning will not poke into your thighs or breasts while sitting down.
