Corset Bustier

A corset bustier is a stretchable corset undergarment or combination of a brasserie and corset or girdle. Like a regular corset, its function is to lift the breasts and flatten the tummy. This lingerie garment is worn on the upper torso. It usually extends from the breasts to the hips though some only go until the middle of the ribs.

The difference between a corset bustier and a corset is the boning. A corset bustier has light boning so it is not as stiff and rigid as an ordinary corset, so it can give only a lighter support to the body. However, it can also give the body a good shape. Another difference is that a corset bustier is made of lighter fabrics than a regular corset. The back is stretchable and often made of elastic synthetic fabrics such as lycra or spandex. They usually have rows of hook and eye closures at the back but some corset bustiers have lace-up backs.

The difference between a corset bustier from a regular corset is that the corset bustier has a light boning, making the corset bustier less stiff. Since the corset bustier is made of lighter synthetic fabrics like lycra or spandex, it means that it is very stretchable. It's bra cups include underwire and has lace garter straps for stockings which are usually removable. Straps can be included and are often bought per set with along with the panties.

Having this kind of lingerie requires special attention especially when it comes to washing it. Never machine wash your corset bustier and always use cold water when washing it. Hot water can cause damage to the boning. It will also wear out the elastic.
