They produced a cone figure which reduced the waist and was worn with a device to expand the dress at the hips known as a “farthingale”.

In the 1700’s corsets were designed to support and enhance the breasts along with the original purpose of reducing the tummy, supporting the back and helping a woman’s posture so she could walk straight. These garments were quite comfortable, did not restrict breathing, permitted woman to work in them but bending was quite difficult and woman had to bend their knees to lift objects. She took a break from research and found a mirror and imagined how delighted they would be with a corset from Intimate Apparel Corsets. She stretched and bent before the mirror delighting in the comfort and support her garment does provide.

Curious she returned to the computer continued her research while she thought about the other garments offered at Intimate Apparel Corsets.

She then explored her new garments ability to shape and support her breasts. Enjoying the freedom this garment offered her breasts while giving them the look a bra provides. In the early 1800’s the desire to reduce the waist and support and enhance the breasts revived the fashion world and now the corset was used to produce a curvy hourglass figure.

She opens the button of her dress exposing her corset and her barely supported breasts. Then she realized that the ladies during that time did not remove much of their clothing and she laughs.

The early 20^th century corset use declined with the introduction of the bra and different designs that change the way a corset supported with the intent to be healthier to wear but it made them more uncomfortable. It was world war 2 that brought about the decline of corset production because the metal used in corsets was needed for the war effort.

Today corsets are no longer just for undergarment use. Corsets can take ordinary jeans and make you look alluring and elegant.
