Is This The Tinniest Waist In The World? .... Woman Flaunts Her 16-inch Waist

24 year old Berliner Michele Kobke found a new way of achieving the shape she wants, by wearing a corset every single day for the last three years. She went from a waist 25 to a waist 16 after wearing the corset continuously even while eating, sleeping, and swimming she told The Daily News.

“My dream waist is 15 inches,” she said. That would represent a world record for an adult, currently held by Connecticut woman Cathie Jung.

Even as she closes in on her “dream” waist, Kobke admits there are health concerns with such a passion. A doctor already diagnosed her with some muscle atrophy from wearing the fashion piece 24 hours a day. "I can’t imagine to just stop one day,” she said in a segment with RTL, a German television channel. “The corsets have become an important part of my life. I just can’t imagine.”
