I've been reading a lot about these lately and am trying to find a way to buy one, but am afraid I'll mess it up. Apparently there are two types the kind more for looks, but not necessarily less expensive. I'm interested because they are excellent back support and after my back surgery I need that. Unlike medical supports they can be wore under clothes and are less ugly. The only stores were I live that carry them are for the wealthy and tiny people.

They seem kind of complex to wear if you live alone, does any one here have any experience with the real corsets? I can't afford to blindly buy this kind of thing.
