Bridal corsets have been around for centuries, but were made famous in
the Victorian era. They are constrictive garments that provide the maximum
level of toning possible. These corsets are steeped in history, and every shop
will tell you that they were worn by the high born ladies and were much sought
after up until the sixties. Bridal corsets fell out of favour after
that, but slowly regained popularity in the nineties. Corsets were
traditionally made with metal support beams, but thankfully, it has now been
replaced by more accommodating materials that are much more comfortable to
wear. Identifying a good corset has become an art, owing to the intricacies
about its construction and variations. Once a woman understands these, she can
make a decision.
Although there are more popular and comfortable
options available in the market in the form of bustiers, shapewear, and so on,
the kind of toning that corsets provide is unmatched. This, however, comes at a
price- comfort. If a bride can bear wearing a corset for multiple hours, it is
the right fit for her.
A lot of research has to go into the process of
buying a corset. There are several small details that prospective buyers must
pay attention to, fitting being the most important. It is essential that the
corset is matched to the dress, but given that most bridal corsets are
made to order, that might not pose that big an issue to the buyer.
