More about the Numan Corset
Most contemporary corsets are adjusted through rear laces. This is fine for those that are limber enough to reach their middle back. But those with limited flexibility due to muscle structure or health concerns will find it difficult to properly adjust a rear lacing corset. An excellent alternative is a front lacing corset such as the Numan Corset. The shape is identical to our rear-lacing underbust corset models. The major difference is the two sets of eyelets at the front of the corset allowing full adjustment without the help of others. Behind each set of laces is a stiffened lacing protector. This will prevent the belly from protruding between the laces. The Numan employs a front closure to allow easy entrance and egress. You have the choice of either the older, 1840's era front opening busk or a more modern stayed zipper. At the sides of the corset, flat steel stays allow the corset to keep its shape, while tapering the ribs. At the rear of the corset, heavier-gauge steels are placed to support the back.The Numan is an underbust corset that is designed to be unnoticeable seen under outer clothing. If you are an accomplished tightlacer, an extended pipe-stem at the waist can be included free of charge.
The Numan Corset shown above is made with the standard Poly/Cotton twill. The Exterior is Burgundy Bengaline.
For daily wear, cotton/poly twill is suggested for the interior and exterior. Although the matte finish of the cotton/poly twill is not as showy as other fabrics, it is exceedingly durable and breathes very well.
If you plan to wear your corset under daily clothes, it would be a good idea to choose a color that is close to your skin tone. That way, the corset will not be visible under light colored shirts. If you normally wear darker colors, your color choice is greater as the corset will not be visible.
There are other fabrics and colors available. Please visit the Fabrics and Leathers page for details.
