A go-to garment for shaping the torso and accentuating curves, corsets have become a versatile staple in modern wardrobes. Iterations seen at Maison Margiela Haute Couture’s Spring Summer 2024 runway show, while more theatrical than practical, served as inspiration for integrating corsetry into our everyday wear. Enter our selection of corset tops.

Also known as bodices or bustiers, corset tops offer endless styling opportunities, and we’ve handpicked options perfect for dressing up and down and transforming any outfit into a show-stopping ensemble. Whether paired with jeans for a casual look or layered under a blazer for a sophisticated flair, our top picks will spice up any outfit and provide cinching in all the right places.
