- Hourglass Shape

- Conical Shape
A conical shaped corset has a straight side that tapers down from the upper part of the body to the waist. This shape of corset may be difficult to wear because it shapes the lower ribs. It is not advisable that a woman who just started wearing a corset should use a conical corset first. If the ribs start hurting, the corset is probably laced up too strongly. It usually takes the user eight months to outline her ribs and, for certain wearers, it can take as long as a year.
- Waist Cincher
The waist cincher is commonly called a waist corset or "waspie." This style of corset is not the usual one because it is a smaller corset that can be worn round a woman's stomach. A waist cincher is good for light corset training because it supports the stomach and doesn’t offer to shape for the ribs. Women who are not certain about how corset can be used may try this corset first since a waist cincher provides the wearer a slim stomach, but it is not as compressing as other kinds of corsets.
Other styles of corsets are Elizabethan corset, S-bend, or the pipe stem. The Elizabethan corset has Middle Ages look and has straps. This corset is normally and hardly used for corset training. Women who just started using corsets should stay away from S-bend and pipe stem corsets since they can alter the body into an abnormal shape.
