We almost didn't buy this, based on the reviews, but the corset/belt is BEAUTIFUL.  Well made, great materials, awesome hot pink color, and isn't too small.  Obviously, it's not for someone who is overweight.  I'm 5'5" and 125 lbs. and it fits.  It also fits my 12 year old daughter.  It's so beautiful.  What a steal at this price!  We bought a flannelette hat to match and are having lots of fun with it. Don't hesitate, it's a super belt/corset!
