This Bridgerton-approved trend has garnered its fair share of celebrity fans over the past few years, from Kim Kardashian to Kerry Washington — and it doesn't seem like the sexy staple is going anywhere. It's now become the norm to wear corsets with baggy joggers and cargo pants, style them with suits, and layer them over button-downs. You can invest in a bedazzled corset for a fancy occasion or try a cute corset mini dress for a quick date night look.
With Structured Pieces
Whether it's trousers, a blazer, or a full suit, the contrast between something so sexy and something sharp will make for an eye-catching combination.
With Jeans
There's a reason jeans continue to be a mainstay in our wardrobe: they look great with everything! Instead of choosing a slim-fit pair of denim, try a design with a wider leg to balance out this form-fitting top.
With a Dress
This corset outfit idea has the potential of looking a little costume-y, so if that's not the goal, just keep things simple. Pair pieces from similar color families (ex: beige with brown or cream with light pink) so that they easily blend, or style a bright-colored corset over a neutral dress for a look that really pops.
With Joggers
While it may sound strange, these contrasting pieces create an athleisure ensemble that feels very '90s — and is pretty comfy, too. If sweatpants feel too casual, trade them for some baggy cargos and nail the old school popstar look.
With a Skirt
A mini skill will bring things back to the Y2K era (especially with the addition of knee-high boots) while maxis tend to give off ethereal, bohemian vibes.
With a Little Leather
There's something about this specific combo that reminds us of vampires — and TBH, we're into it. Combine a lacy black corset with leather pants or a long leather blazer for an outfit that feels ready for a fun night out.
Over a Button-Down Shirt
Although corsets have historically been considered undergarments, they don't have to be. Play around with layering and use it to spice up your favorite basics, whether it's a long white button-down or a casual graphic tee.
