Yes, but only after you break it in thoroughly and practice sleeping, otherwise it may permanently twist and torque so that you cannot straighten it up even when you wear it during the day. It will have to be a bit looser at night for most folks and it may take you several tries before you can sleep all night long while corseted.

Pretty much anything. We have clients who wear them to anything such as dancing at clubs, luncheons, elegant evening black tie affairs, and weddings. A few wear them as foundation garments instead of a bra and treat them as a camisole at work. The possibilities are really endless. See similar questions...

The rule of thumb is: Wear a well-made custom corset in suitable fabric for waist-training, 24/7 at a 4" reduction and it will wear out in 1-1.5 yrs. Other than that general rule, it is impossible to say with certainty. See similar questions...

Only if you want it to look right. The female Elizabethan silhouette demands a corset, and without it, your costume simply won't achieve the Elizabethan look. Badly fitted corsets can be terribly uncomfortable. That's why our Elizabethan Underpinnings manual gives detailed instructions on fitting it to your body -- so you won't be uncomfortable. No. A corset fitted to someone else -- even someone of ostensibly the same dress size -- won't be the same as a corset fitted to you. See similar questions...

Always! Or better: whenever you want to. The previous paragraph about clothing tells you that you can wear corsets on every possible occasion. I can think of hardly any event where corsets are inappropriate (except for taking a shower or went to sauna). Once you have become accustomed to your corset it makes sense to wear it as often as possible. The longer and the more often you wear it, the fewer will you notice it. See similar questions...

Yes, with practice anyone can, with good arm movement, put a corset on and lace it closed. Each corset does come with a “how to lace” guide. See similar questions...

We include this information with all of our corsets, but here it is for reference. Undo the metal clasp in front (the busc), turn the corset over and loosen the laces. You will notice that there are two loops in the lacing at the waist in back - these loops will be where you pull to tighten the corset. Place the corset around your waist with the button side of the busc on your left. Hook the metal buttonholes over the buttons, and pull gently on the ribbon loops until the corset is just snug.

Good question! As with many other terms in common use in the corset world, there is no single rigid or technical definition, no matter what is currently being advertised as a "man's corset" on any other website you may have visited. See similar questions...

Start with your waist measurement. If you have a build like Rosie O’Donnell use a small bust gore. If you have a build like Dolly Parton use bigger bust gores. See similar questions...

No special clothing is required to do yoga. Just wear comfortable clothing that isn't too baggy and doesn't restrict movement. In general, a T-shirt or tank-top is appropriate, with sweats, stretch-pants, or shorts on bottom. Yoga is done with bare feet, so please come with clean feet, and plan to remove your shoes and socks when you arrive. See similar questions...
