Best Plus-Size Corsets and Bustiers to Buy Online

Whether you’re channeling a classic pinup queen like Dita Von Teese, a fashion-forward model like Gigi Hadid, or the romantic heroine from your favorite period drama, corsets are easier to find than ever before. And they’re increasingly becoming worn outside the bedroom, too: Layer them over a tank dress or neutral-colored top for a modern take on the look. Today’s corsets are usually constructed more safely than underpinnings of yore (as in, you can actually breathe while wearing them), but it's nevertheless best to be careful when trying out this trend and avoid lacing too tightly. One more note: Corset sizing varies by brand — some go by bra size, some by dress size, some by natural waist size, and still others by corseted waist size — so take your measurements and check the brand’s sizing methods before purchasing. And now, without further ado, here are some of the sexiest corsets out there, with everything from mermaid-inspired sequins to romantic lace.
