Doll, I'm not really sure what you mean. I honestly hope you don't mean that you want a 20" natural waist. First of all, you'd probably have to get down to a 16" corset waist to retain a 20" natural waist. To put it in perspective, 16" is the circumference of an average coffee can. It's also only 1 inch bigger than the infamous Cathie Jung's corseted waist: http://cheeju.wordpress.com/2007/08/29/c...ist-woman/ At that size, the ribcage starts become caved in and spreads out at the top almost like swimmers lats. Her organs have also been pushed so far down that she has a huge pooch. She is 5'6" and her corseted measurements are 39/15/39.
It's good to set your goals high, but I hope you're eventually able to settle on set of realistic body goals that work for you, rather than fall into the trap of ever receding goal posts. I hope you don't think that I'm putting you on the spot. All this talk just worries me a little, and I'm being completely honest when I say that I think you're already beautiful.
Here's one more pic from an article talking about realistic tightlacing goals:
