Corset – The corset is very similar to the bustier, though older in origin and more defined in its use. Corsets were worn by men and women for the purpose of presenting a trimmer figure, particularly the waist. Traditionally laced from the back, servants or partners were needed to help pull the laces on the corset. Women still wear corsets for a shaped look, or as an item of erotic interest. Now days many corsets have laces in the back and hook/eye or zipper fronts for ease in getting on or off.

A corset may cover the breasts or might be a waist corset, starting below the breasts and ending above the belly button, leaving breast exposed for a more exotic look.
