Right, but without straps, yes? I'm saying that the problem she had
probably arose from not having straps rather than not having tabs.
Also that she could add boned tabs (though not easily, as the boning
has to go all the way up into the corset) and that would help some,
but that adding straps would help more (and be much simpler!). My
phrasing did assume that the corset already had tabs--sorry about the
confusion.

Ah--that can cause real problems. Boning the tabs will help in that
situation, but adding shoulder straps will help more.
I should clarify that I'm not against boned tabs. They're great.
But if you're putting a slender person in their first corset, and
there's no
boning in the sides and back, I think they're more work than
they're worth.
