The fashion must-haves and essentials every well-dressed woman should own!~

They pull you in at the waist only and make your  white cocktail dresses  more prominent, but they do not slim the hip and butt area. If you want your hips snug you should get a full body slimmer/shapers that will cover your whole torso, those are easy to find a most department stores.No, corsets only pull you in at the waist in fact, wearing a corset will probably make your hips look even bigger. I think your best bet is to visit Victoria Secret and look at their Body Shapers. They have all kinds of underthings that nip you in at various body parts, and this oone thing is like a little leotard that goes from your bra to midthigh and sort of sucks everything in and shapes it. It quite uncomfortable, though, and you probably won have much luck eating with it on at the party, but it will look really nice and smooth out everything.

The strongest corsets are questionable since there are many good manufacturers. Most of what you find at run of the mill department stores is meant for show only. If you want to get a good corset, look online, specifically at fetish and s type sites.well if you live in the bay area i could suggest my favorite shop for that sort of thing. they have very well made corset. im not sure if they work on the hips too. i too have wide hips. and remember when dealing with corsets dont go to small too fast as that causes undo strain on your body. its stresses your sexy lingeries. get to a point where its tight and if you want to take off more inches you can take an inch every hour. but dont go too small. if you find any good stores anywhere else let me know. hope my info was helpful. feel free to ask anything anytime.
