For standing, corsets aren’t that bad. They’re not fun when you want to sit but they’re essentially providing structure like a bra would, with extra back support. They’re also necessary for carrying those heavy skirts around. They’re definitely not worth it for modern fashion but I watch a lot of historical costumers and they get pretty steamed about people saying corsets are bad.
