It's a great piece for the money. They shipped it in a bubble envelope, which led to a bend in the boning at the back. Quite annoying and I would've returned it for that, but I used an industrial steamer to reshape it and have made it work, since it's really only a minor costume piece. Great for dressing up, although a bit big, based on their charts. So, maybe order down from their suggestions if you are used to waist training or your corsets running on the smaller side, as I am.
