Am I willing to spend $88 on a jacket that I would very carefully have to soak in a dye bath, thus turning it into crushed silk-rayon velvet? [link]
I suspect I'm not willing to. But goodness, it's pretty.
You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Is it because it's blue you'd want to dye it?

Yep. I don't wear a lot of blue.
... okay, I just re-read the description, and it closes with six buttons that are underneath all the other, purely decorative buttons. If I have a jacket like that, I want all the gazillion little buttons to be functional. Yes, because I'm crazy.

I like the lines, but fear it would look boxy in a 16.
I think it looks boxy in the illustration, and would look boxy on a 6. It's not a flattering cut.
Jilli, you aren't, because you'd also probably have to make sewing alterations to allow for your bustline, and at that price, buy the fabric and make someone sew it for you.

I love that soooooo much, but I fear I have too much of a pot-belly to wear it. J. Peterman stuff runs narrow-waisted.
SJ, if a therapist can't be there for you, he's no therapist.

Since both of you are here, when I buy a corset, I go by my waist size, not my bust size, right?

For a serious, good corset. Not the cheap-o ones.
You go by waist, and subtract about 4" to arrive at your corset size.
