What: Corset or Lingerie Dressing
Which: You want a chic structured corset, a cute little lace camisole, a dress with the corset detailing or stitching. It’s about giving shape to the top of the body. It’s not about forgetting to wear your trousers and just wearing pants. That’s just for the runway in the Alexander Wang show ( below). And Lady GaGa.
Why: Because the sloppy, loose, unstructured silhouette is over. Sorry. Because the corset will do amazing things to your figure. Because the lingerie as outerwear look was a major trend on the runways for next summer 2010. Because it’s about edgy lace and strong feminine looks. Because the Gaultier cone bra from the eighties is back. Because we are in love with anything that holds the muffin situation around your waist in place.
Wear: Try a corset top with a pencil skirt under a jacket. Or layer a corset over a shirt . You can do a pretty lace cami or corset under a cashmere cardigan with peg legs pants. Or throw a corset with a pretty frou frou skirt and a man style jacket.
Where: YSL, Stella McCartney, Bottega Veneta, Lanvin, Alexander Wang, Collette Dinnigan or try the lingerie section in any department store.
