Hi Isabelle,
I'm really doubtful that it would be obtainable without corsets.
The bone structure of males vs females is the problem as I see it.
They have a very small rib cage and wide hips, and we have large rib cages and narrow hips. Yes, the fat deposits on the hips help, but to get a 0.7 WHR on 38-40" hips, you'd need a waist of 26.6-28".
It seems to me that to lose that amount of waist by dieting alone would take a fair bit of all deposited fat, not just the male fat, thus reducing hips and bust.
I say that on the basis that our measurements apart from height and overbust are quite similar (you are 2" taller) and I'm pretty certain that getting my waist down to 28" would take just about all the fat on my body.
Mind you, this is all deduction - I'd be happy to be wrong!
Incidentally, I've always had this theory that if you did lose all your fat and then regained it whilst wearing a corset, the fat would go to all the right places. Do you think there is anything to that idea?
