I just saw this pop up on my Facebook feed and found it interesting. This woman has been wearing a corset for seven years and now has a 16 inch waist. Has anyone else seen this?

I think that by having such a tiny waist it makes the rest of her look bigger. I don't know.....to each their own, I guess. She's a beautiful girl and the pictures are interesting to look at, but I certainly wouldn't want that small of a waist.

    I'd love to know the rest of her measurements... Like you said it distorts her so much you can't tell if bits have been enhanced by surgery or by the corset.

    She is beautiful, but her proportions are weird. It gives her a hell of a FUPA... JS

    It's a misunderstanding that corseting ruins your organs. Pregnancy can do an awful lot worse!

    It's corset training. She's not skinnier. She's just worn the corset so tightly and for so long that her organs shifted into a new position.

    I think the pics are cool to look at. I personally like wear corsets for costumes, but I don't do tight lacing. I would be curious to see her other measurements though just for some perspective.

    It looks like it hurt to get there.

    Yeah, let's go back to those corset wearing days when women would faint, damage their organs, etc. I thought we had gotten away from self-mutilation as beauty.

    Actually, that was only a specific type of corset that could hurt you. That kind is (obviously) no longer in use.
