Best Answer

Corsets are sized by waist measurement, and it is usually recommended to order one 4 inches smaller than your natural waist, as the number on the label will be the actual size of the corset.

However, some basques are sized by bra size, so it depends whether you are talking about a true corset or a corset style basque. It would probably be best to contact the shop or manufacturer.
