    what's the difference?

    waist trainers are designed to literally "train your waist" they are meant to be worn for extended periods of time- and you condition yourself to wearing them with actual literally transition periods.

    Corsets are the old fashioned equivalent of spanx or control top panties- put it on= cinch it up- take it off when you're done.

    You can google it corset vs waist trainer- comes right up.

    so, your saying the difference is how long you leave it on for

    No, waist trainers are made with a different material meant to reshape while a corset it meant to contour.

    I have an ad blocker so I guess I didn't see it. But that was the only website I could find that worked on my work computer that explained the difference.

    I like the posture improvements I get from my weekends of wearing a bodice or corset. I don't do it for that, but like dressing up for renaissance faire, and reap the improved posture from it for a few months. LOL! Improving posture also helps to create the look of a waist.

    Nope, she has the world record for smallest waist at 15 inches. Her name is Cathie Jung and she lived in a corset/waist trainer for 25 years. I think she just has one misshapen organ now :s

    Reminds me of Vera Ellen's waist. Just watched White Christmas over the holidays and Im always surprised by her tiny waist.

    I think it was common to use waist cinchers in the first part of the 20th century. It seems all the leading ladies had impossibly tiny waists.

    Oh, wow. I'm into the hourglass look, but those tiny waists are freaking me out!! But then I'm thinking- what it works? Let me get one and keep it on for 25 years. I'm kidding!!

    I don't know if this will work, but I'm trying to post to a picture that shows what Cathie Jung currently looks like. Doesn't it look like all of her organs were shifted down and out in a weird bulge?

    Yeah I see what you mean. I just took a look at the website. Maybe its her intestines not knowing where to go? idk.

    I would say it's organs and fat that shifted elsewhere. It looks painful having a waist the size of a neck.. like she'll bend in half if she takes off her corset.
