Fashion has long seen the female body as a supple being, something to be
pliable and molded according to the contemporary norms of today’s
social codes and the capricious whims of the fashion industry.
Corsetry has historically signified both beauty and oppression.
Now that it has re-emerged again in trend, let’s look back
in time to better understand its current resurgence.
In the 19th and early 20th centuries the ideal figure was more statuesque
in appearance than that of today’s look. For many women during those periods,
the physical proportions and statuesque curves dictated the fashion of that era.
Corsetry was seen as a reflection of a distinct brand of feminism.
No other garment so radically reshaped the physical body of a woman.
It not only transformed our perceptions of the figure, it also
distinctly changed a woman's form - by kneading the flesh into a
tightly laced corset to literally carve out a new body for its wearer.
In addition to focusing on the waistline, attention was also paid to the other
parts of the body – with smooth long hips and pronounced busts more commonplace.
Today, the corset dress has become a popular fashion statement
with its shape making a comeback all over the catwalk.
In an age where fashion has never been more concerned with being
feminist, the corset dress represents how powerfully women can
reclaim and reinvent what clothing means to them.

This Luxe Paris Vanity Dress is a great example.
Its overall silhouette is very sexy and flattering.
I absolutely love the buttoned-down wrap look of this dress. I also like
the off shoulder, contrasting laced sleeves and how they are cleverly
button-fastened to the body of the dress.
Its corset bodice design enhances the figure by accentuating our feminine
qualities with sophisticated flair. Its lightly boned bust and sweetheart neckline is
divine, with a design intended to conceal the cleavage rather than express it.
If you’re after the full corset look, you can’t go wrong adorning
this beautiful red & black Luxe Paris Vanity Dress!
Rather than contorting my body, this Vanity corset dress fits my exact shape. If
you’re an avid corset fan like me, you’ll be in your element wearing this dress.
