Tightlacer

Tightlacing is the practice of corsetry taken to an extreme, the goal being to achieve a very narrow corseted waist. Reduction to 15" or below is very rarely achieved.

To achieve such a narrow corseted waist requires the wearing of a corset practically full-time, and the individual's body will in general be permanently altered by the practice, though this may not involve any ill effects to health.
