Are corsets in style?
Corsets are thriving!! Want to make a statement, express your creativity and femininity, tired of wearing loose-fitting garments during Covid-19, and/or have a pent-up urge to party, then this trend is for you. Corsets have gone in and out of style many times over the years and they are back with a vengeance.
Traditional corsets are tightly fitting undergarments with the purpose of shaping the figure. They extend from below the chest to the hips. There are many new versions that will give you some structure with varying degrees of convenience and comfort. However, the hourglass corset is a favorite.
Corsets are available in many different fabrics: lace, satin, velvet, brocade, leather or cotton or twill at a variety of prices. The corset you buy depends on whether you are wearing it under or over your clothing. Some say if you are wearing it under your clothing, opt for 100% cotton that is breathable or a satin corset that will allow your clothing to slide over it.
Many designers are offering corseted gowns, corset sweaters, corset-print tees and glitzy crystal versions. Divas are wearing them over everything: tees, jeans, track pants, sweaters, jackets, skirts, dresses, coats, blouses and/or shirts.
Some benefits of wearing a corset are a reduced waistline, posture improvement, back support and they are really sexy looking.
