Goodness. I’ve had a front zipper on a corset, but never a basque. Takes all sorts I guess.

I had this in my Downloads folder - this is the a corset with a zipper?

Bodyshapers are generally quite comfortable. Snug. They tend to really help with bigger boobs (assuming you get the right size/fit etc), keeping not just your boobs in shape but also the rest of you.

I was just having a look here:  https://body-shaper.co.uk/  They can be made [it seems] to really alter a woman's shape.

That looks like an overbust corset (very difficult to get in your exact size) - mine was an underbust corset with a zipper. You zipped it at the front and laced it according to your fit/shape, then it was relatively easy to take on and off. I think I wore it twice. They’re not the most comfortable of garments to wear for prolonged periods.

A zipper next to bare skin I find uncomfortable.  I guess it has a little flap of material to cover the zip on the inside.

Okay, back to a bit of sizing.  As a side note, I often see girls walking about dressed like this - I'm in two minds about it to be honest.

Mmmm… difficult to tell, but I’d be guessing in the G cup category. Possibly something like a 32G/GG.

Okay thanks for the 32G.

Are these military grade suspenders?  I've never seen them this substantial.

Not sure if we've done Holly before?

I wouldn’t say military, but they’re certainly wide! I used to have a 12-strap, like this one (and I also had custom-made suspender clips for a bodyshaper. The ones that came with it were too thin and too long, so I got really short ones made).

Well… she’s wearing the wrong size of bra in this photo, for a start. She needs to go up a band size and possibly up a cup size.

I had a look around to see other photos of her. She’s possibly something like a 34J or a 32JJ. In some photos, her boobs look bigger, but I guess that’s either angle, pose or weight gain. Does she still model?

Was that for fashion or functionality?  I bet it took a bit of effort to do up all those straps.

I thought it looked a little small.

I think so, she is relatively new to the scene.

I've just been going through some of the pictures I have an an external drive - found lots I'd forgotten I have - like this one.

This is a nice bra - seems a good fit for a big bust.

Edit - nah cup is too small.

My husband bought me it. I think I wore it once, maybe twice (in the bedroom). Not the easiest to fasten up, but once on, there was no risk of the stockings falling down. Very sexy too - but not the most practical.

It’s a lovely bra. Very supportive. She needs to go up a band size at least, you can see it arching up around the side. Possibly even up a cup size too - although going up a band size would help.

I was going to ask your estimation the size of a favourite models of mine Jo Paul - https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/675188169104269174/

But then I found this image when looking for a Jo Paul pic to post .  So as she has some interesting lingerie I thought I'd post her as well.
