Corsets and Bustiers

One of the most versatile and historical item of clothing you can find, the corset has long been a staple for many women, from Queen Elizabeth I to burlesque queen Dita Von Teese. From squeezing you in to pushing you up, the corset has been the perfect starting point for creating your ideal figure. Once only preserved for undergarments, the corset has since moved from the bedroom (or the dungeon) and into everyday outerwear. The result is beautifully feminine with a dangerous edge.

Another version, which is just as flattering, is the cincher. Slightly shorter than the waspie, this style works well worn over clothes while still creating a curvy, hourglass figure. These work particularly well with pencil skirts. One style that can’t be beaten in the fetish style stakes has to be the bustier. Seductive and as saucy as you make it, this appeals to a variety of tastes.
