(Actually, that's one of the blessings of an apple figure, you never have to think, "Does my bum look big in this." It never does, in anything.)<br /><br />Corsets are wondrous things for parties and events :D You're so lucky to have someone to custom-make for you.Mimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578612522819952936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7211353948967221274.post-4750501007725834462011-10-16T20:04:14.176+01:002011-10-16T20:04:14.176+01:00as an apple shape too, i mourn the inability to we...as an apple shape too, i mourn the inability to wear anysort of dress/skirt whose shape depends on the waistline (which i why i live in jeans).<br />It's also the reason why i love dressing in authentic Victorian fashion for my steampunkery. Corsets are amazing for giving a feminine shape-esepcially to the waist. Then you get to wear a bustle which makes your arse huge (but in a good way!)

My shapewear extent is the big shorts type affair from Primark. I wear them everyday and they are very comfy and easy to get on. I don't think they really pull me in that much - but they do stop the dreaded "Legs rubbing together at the top" scenario - something I have had all my life.LandGirl1980https://www.blogger.com/profile/09549128222449333173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7211353948967221274.post-21485323325055948042011-10-14T10:02:37.022+01:002011-10-14T10:02:37.022+01:00I've never worn shapewear but am starting to t...I've never worn shapewear but am starting to think it would be a good idea.

I've always spent loads of time barefoot and have wide feet - but I don't have any problem at all with my feet, unlike people I know who've worn heels or narrow shoes a lot.<br /><br />As I said, I don't mind being big. It's more the fact that I can't get things to fit that's annoying me right now.Mimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578612522819952936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7211353948967221274.post-44309696985271741552011-10-13T22:11:54.947+01:002011-10-13T22:11:54.947+01:00On the foot thing, apparently people nowadays have...On the foot thing, apparently people nowadays have bigger feet than in the past because now we have Clarks emphasising how important it is that shoes always have room for children's feet to grow. In the past it wasn't the case, and people often wouldn't be able to afford to constantly buy new shoes for children (Harry needs new ones every 2-3 months), and children would often wear Rhian Drinkwaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09453452244623034660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7211353948967221274.post-58455513516227169402011-10-13T20:58:45.973+01:002011-10-13T20:58:45.973+01:00Hmm not convinced by the un-shoed foot spreading a...Hmm not convinced by the un-shoed foot spreading and spreading! <br /><br />However on the subject of shapewear I am a convert but I only wear it when the frock/occasion demands. I have a wonderous one from M&S that actually gives me a slimer waist and a cleavage, marvellous.Miss Magpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10899889154015378547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7211353948967221274.post-9492299722490454332011-10-13T20:41:59.737+01:002011-10-13T20:41:59.737+01:00I a huge lover of shapewear, if it sucks me in and...I a huge lover of shapewear, if it sucks me in and controls my "curves" (ie extra chunky bits) then I'm loving it.
