Every single woman wants to look fabulous and you can do that easily by wearing a corset. A corset is a type of undergarment that has been used since the medieval times. It is used to accentuate the figure of a woman making her look slimmer than she really is.
The corset has been used by women for several centuries now. It is basically a foundation garment that is used to shape the upper body of a woman. The corset is composed of different parts such as stiff panels, tight lacing and boning. In the past, the laces of the corset are tightened until the desired shape is achieved and that is the hourglass figure. Women in the past were obsessed about having a really tiny waist and a full bosom. They achieve this by tightening the laces of the corset up to an almost excruciating point. Women in the past were willing to endure the pain for the sake of beauty.
Today, the corset is no longer worn as an undergarment alone. It still provides support and accentuates the figure of the woman but nowadays it is also worn as it is.
