Timeless Fashion: A Quick Look at the History and Evolution of the Corset

Corsets have a long history dating back to the 16th century, originally worn by both men and women as a means of shaping the body and providing support for the back and abdominal muscles.

They were made of stiff materials such as steel or whalebone, and were tightened using laces in the back.

In the 19th century, corsets became a popular undergarment for women and were worn to achieve an hourglass figure.

They were often worn with dresses and were seen as a necessary item in a woman’s wardrobe.

The corset has evolved throughout the years and today, it is a popular item of clothing worn in some modern fashion and is mostly used as a fashion statement.

The corset is often worn over clothing as a top or as a part of a dress and it is mostly used to create a narrow waist and a fuller bust.
