Seconding the vote on the Diderot stays in C&C (though my stays were a seriously bastardized version! Better ones are currently in limbo...)! And I like straps on my stays, both for posture and because I'm terrified of potential escaping side-boob. Not that I've much boob to escape!
And I love love love cable ties for boning! For fully boned stays I'd use the narrower ones, but in my half-boned stay, since you can't see the stitching n the outside of the stays, I use the slightly wider ones. Actually, I use cable ties for boning in pretty much everything! Cheaper and easier to cut than steel!
