In the days of old, black corsets were a common wardrobe piece in any lady’s wardrobe. This was especially true in medieval times where corsets were heavily worn by ladies to create a better figure with a smaller waistline and fuller top. Not much is considered on their health and mental well-being with the tight fitting costume. The corset is meant to create a better posture with a lifting of the bust to create a deeper cleavage.
Medieval days
Corsets were made of real bones that would tighten around the ladies’ waist and chest that many could faint due to the poor oxygen flow. Many medieval ladies adjust to the strict demands of the corset of that day until a more wearer friendly version came on the scene.
Corsets of all colors could be used to shape the lady’s figure without restricting her airway. Hence, every woman would don the corset to secure the desired hourglass figure without the necessity to diet. Thus, the corset functioned as a primary fashion accessory even during medieval times.
Color black
Black has always found a high favor with ladies. This is a classic color for many fashion wear which is preferred by a lot of ladies as well as men. The black corset was worn by ‘street’ women in the days of old but today, black corsets are fashionable and classic wardrobe pieces especially for those young and trendy.
These accepted fashionable pieces are now donned on the inside as well as the outside of the clothing. Some take over the role of a brassiere with and without straps. There are various versions where the Overbust covers the lady’s bosoms while the Underbust covers the body’s midsection stopping at below the bustline.
Styles
There is a myriad of styles on black corsets as they come off as fashionable pieces. There are corsets that are a straight piece over the rib with ribbons at the back while others come in a black heart shape.
There is also the bold Midbust version which covers the bottom half of the bosoms so that the top would appear fuller and sexier. Different materials used in black corsets also impact the different styles in the market. These include the more popular satin, silk, velvet, lace and leather. Some ladies may only don the black corset not only as a fashion statement but also as a part of the anti-feminist movement. The black leather corset is a favorite piece to stand out as bold and different.
