This Gildra waistcoat corset is praised for its beautiful look and stunning embroidery. While the sizing is generally true, some customers found it a bit tough. Made from a blend of polyester and elastane, it features a tie front and thick straps with a zip fastening.

"Nice corset top, it doesn't look quite as nice on me, a heavy-chested size 42, but I still like it. I got the whole outfit from the promo pictures for a photoshoot, attaching a picture of how it looks in my size (it's a bit roughed up after the shoot but you can still get an idea, I think it works nicely in bigger sizes)."
"I bought this to go over a shirt but I ended up just braving it and wearing it with nothing under it and was suprised at how supportive it was (I do only have little peckers though). Nice material but quite short."
"although the fabric isnt too thick and there is no boning it is such a gorgeous corset, beautifully made and the perfect addition for any whimsical outfit . would highly reccomdend"
"Cute waistcoat, looks really good but I ordered it too large but as I’m a tailor it wont be difficult to fix it. If you want a small gap between the laces in the front I recommend choosing a size smaller."
"I absolutely loved this and brought a 12 (my normal size). But the 12 was just too big everywhere, bust, shoulders, back, etc. So I decided to get it in a size 10, but it was still too big on the shoulders. Meaning it sat far too down around the bust area. I’d of needed to take off a good 3 inches off of each shoulder for it to be able to sit where it’s suppose to. I could have kept it and worn it on top of a shirt or dress but I liked the option to wear it on its own, so I returned. I probably would have kept it and get it altered but that would have made an expensive top, even more expensive. However, it is beautiful, soft and has a great zip. Just a same about the shoulder length being to long/big."
"This is so beautiful and elevates any basic looking outfit. The zip can be a little tricky to fasten as it's at the back but still am very happy with my purchase"
"As someone with a bigger than average bust but only 5ft tall, I have to say this design is pure genius. I was able to order a size 12, which is my size but often, I have to size up due to a lack of fabric in the chest department - but then I'm left with gaps at the armpits and slackness across my back . This design completely alleviates these issues, as the lace panel makes it possible to tighten or loosen off as required. A beautiful design but I did have to return my first order due to the number of faults and poor finishing on the fabric. I ordered a bigger size just in case and this was finished well, so hopefully it was just a one-off issue."
"I like it for the Baba Yaga dress I bought. They look pretty good together for the colder weather. Might be too hot for summer."
"Waited a while for this to come back in stock, and was totally worth the wait! I used the size chart and the recommended size 8 is a perfect fit. I’m 5’1” and had no issues with the straps sliding off which some other reviews mentioned. I love it so much!"
"I'm usually a size 12 but ordered this is a size 12 and 14 to be on the safe side. I thought I'd definitely need a 14 but was surprised that the 12 was better. If you want it to close tightly at the front, go for your usual size or a size larger but if, like me, you want a bit more of the shirt underneath to show through, I'd go with your usual size or size down. The first corset I ordered had to be returned due to really poor finishing - loose threads everywhere! However, the replacement was perfect and a really lovely way to upgrade an outfit."
