Ah, the corset. Designed to provide a particular silhouette for the torso (and sometimes hips), the garment was once ubiquitous as women's underwear (and men's, although male use was rarer). Thanks to a set of overlapping circumstance, its use drastically decreased early in the 20th century and corsets became, outside renaissance fairs, mostly a niche item. Can involve Impossibly Low Neckline, Sexy Coat Flashing. Basques are also included in this category. See Waistcoat of Style for male equivalent. Examples of Of Corsets Sexy include:

  • Ah, the corset. Designed to provide a particular silhouette for the torso (and sometimes hips), the garment was once ubiquitous as women's underwear (and men's, although male use was rarer). Thanks to a set of overlapping circumstance, its use drastically decreased early in the 20th century and corsets became, outside renaissance fairs, mostly a niche item. Now often worn as outerwear, the corset is something the costumers go for when they want to do something a bit unconventional in the Fan Service department; thanks to the garment's ability to accentuate the waist and provide an easy "oomph" to a woman's cleavage, a properly worn corset is sexy without having to show too much skin. The corset is also stock underwear in period pieces, giving the gorgeous period dresses their particular silhouette. Occasionally, a work will include a scene of a woman having her corset laced by a second person (usually a maid), which will as often as not include complaints from the woman being laced. In both fiction and in Real Life, the corset is derided in certain circles due to the perception that wearing one will always result in shortness of breath, discomfort, and even harm. While this is untrue--a properly fitted and worn corset should be no less comfortable than any other item of clothing, as modern-day users will attest--the belief and the trope it inspired have proven quite resilient, to the annoyance of aficionados.
