if there is enough boning in the back and sides, it shouldn't bunch. just remove the zipper and either use metal grommets or make loopholes on each side 1.5 to 2 inches apart. then just lace it up. if there isn't enough boning in the back, you will have to find some way to insert boning either by stitching it in or if there is too many decorations on the back, then you will need to hand sew it to the inside. just buy the kind of boning that has a sleeve so you can sew it in and insert the boning. hope this helps :+)
