In ancient times, a thin wasp waist was considered fashionable, the harmony of which was achieved by wearing a rigid whalebone corset. Corsets were worn under dresses and laced very tightly. The figure of girls and women in such corsets, of course, looked stunning. But beauty had to pay with their health. Women of that time often suffered from respiratory disorders, diseases of the digestive system, in particular the gastrointestinal tract, and ailments related to the cardiovascular system.

At the beginning of the twentieth century, the waist circumference of 47 centimeters was taken as the ideal. And in the post-war period, the waist circumference began to gain centimeters. So, by the 20s of the twentieth century, all styles of women’s dresses had a baggy silhouette. Corsets that create the appearance of a wasp waist are a thing of the past. At a quiet pace, by the middle of the 20th century, it was considered the norm if a woman’s waist was equal to seventy-five centimeters or more.

Only in the second half of the last century, fashion guru Christian Dior drew the attention of fashion and the public to the women’s waist, setting the initial chords for a new style of women’s clothing. The style has remained in the past, and interest in the female waist does not subside to this day. And not just a woman’s waist, but a slender woman’s waist.

Diet for the waist is a great effective way to get the cherished shape. But for this you have to try. Diet for the waist is, of course, important, but physical training should not be forgotten.

There are several types of waist diets. Although they have one principle, and they pursue one goal.
