A properly made to measure corset is very comfortable actually. Like many things it takes time to build up to wearing it for long periods of time and it can be a bit uncomfortable as you approach the end of the 'on' period, but even that disappears over time.
However you are right that you do have to be selective about what clothes you wear. I wore one for about 12 hours daily, 7 days a week, including driving, on construction sites, and in the office where I work, for over 6 months ( I had to stop wearing it full time for other reasons, unfortunately) and nobody knew.
The important thing is to get one made for you and certainly not waste money on a cheap Chinese one off e-bay! I can point you in the direction of a really excellent corset maker if anyone is interested.
