I made something like 5 fully finished corsets before figuring out the right amount of squish, and I don't have that much squishiness to worry about! What started off as a Laughing Moon corset pattern evolved into a hybrid of my own drafting sillz with help from an off-the-rack corset I bought at a con in Boston 5 years ago and fit like a glove.
If it weren't for the Brute Force Leather corset, I'd still be scratching my head over victorian corsets in general. It ended up being the best cheat-sheet I could hope for. ;)
