If you – like us – have already binged season 2 of Netflix’s Bridgerton, corsets will be high on your style radar. Spotted on the likes of Hailey Beiber, Bella Hadid and Julia Fox, this season’s corset resurgence takes the Regency staple to swoon-worthy new heights.
In a sea of evening tops, the corset strikes the perfect balance between delicate and daring. Its boudoir-inspired aesthetic is the perfect vibe for a night out with the girls, date night, and even occasion dressing by way of a two-piece formal set. Look to cult labels like Lioness for corset styles in a suite of trending colours and textures. A slick patent leather-look number channels sultry appeal, while brights and patterns kick things up a notch. Want an *air* of innocence? White corset tops feel fresh and feminine, coming in everything from breezy linen to floral print cotton.
But what to wear with a corset top? If demure gloves and ankle-length hems aren’t your thing, there’s still plenty to work with. The fitted nature of a corset makes it the perfect counterpoint to a pair of high-waisted, wide leg trousers. Ready to embrace the bare hip? Team your corset with one of this season’s other power players: low-rise jeans. Double down on the femme connotations of your ‘fit with a skirt. From tiered prairie silhouettes to leather and satin, midi skirts and mini skirts are both effortless ways to complete your look.
For a one-and-done ensemble that works for day and night, we love corset dresses. There’s something sweetly alluring about a linen corset dress, with flourishes like crochet and puff sleeves steering the style firmly into daytime territory. Corset-style bodices on formal dresses are having a major fashion moment – the perfect way to hit refresh on your roster of wedding guest dresses. Even workwear pays homage to the trend, with SFW cinched waists and subtle tie-up accents breathing new life into office-friendly sheath and shirt dresses.
