It is evident that the leather corset is one of the most elegant forms of lingerie that you can buy. It is elegant and creates that dramatic look that makes women look and feel more feminine but it is also one of the oldest forms of lingerie in existence. It has been around for hundreds of years and it has provided the slimming effect and bust lifting that most women look for in leather lingerie.? These leather corsets will flatter your figure and give you that alluring and seductive look. The texture and smell of leather are very sensual, so it's not surprising that someone would eventually join the sensuality of leather with the provocative nature of lingerie. Black leather corset comes in a wide variety of styles from which you can choose the perfect outfit for you. Leather corsets are an icon from the past that are seeing a modern resurgence and you will find they have never lost their appeal to the opposite sex! The corset is a garment that has undergone many changes over the years. Originally, the garment we now know as the corset was known as stays in the early 16th century. It was a simple bodice, with tabs at the waist, stiffened by horn, buckram, and whalebone. Corsets were originally quilted waistcoats, worn by French women as an alternative to stiff corsets. They were only quilted linen, laced in the front, and un-boned. This garment was meant to be worn on informal occasions, while stays were worn for court dress. In the 1790s, stays fell out of fashion. This development coincided with the French Revolution. Stays went away in the late 18th century, but the corset remained. Corsets in the early 19th century lengthened to the hip, the lower tabs replaced by gussets at the hip. Room was made for the bust in front with more gussets, and the back lowered. The shoulder straps disappeared in the 1840s for normal wear. In the 1820s, fashion changed again and corsets began to be made with some padding and boning. Leather corsets began to be worn by all classes of society. During the Edwardian period, the straight front corset was introduced. This corset was straight in front, with a pronounced curve at the back that forced the upper body forward, and the derrière out. The leather corset reached its longest length in the early 20th century. The corset fell from fashion in the 1920s in Europe and America, replaced by girdles and elastic brassieres, but survived as an article of costume. In recent years, the term "corset" has also been borrowed by the fashion industry to refer to tops which, to varying degrees mimic the look of traditional corsets without actually acting as one. Since the late 1980s, the corset has experienced periodic revivals but the strongest took place with the release of the film Moulin Rouge, the costumes for which featured many corsets as characteristic of the era. Since then, other films have used these garments as costume features, generally to suggest a period effect, as in Van Helsing, where Anna Valerious wears a leather under bust corset as part of her costume. One distinctive feature has been to portray them in combination with catsuits, as in Star Trek: Voyager where Seven of Nine throughout the series wears catsuits with contained built-in corsets, or Underworld, where Selene wears a black leather corset over matching latex catsuit. Many fashion magazines front pages feature over bust and under bust black leather corsets and celebrities such as Victoria Beckham, Jennifer Aniston, Paris Hilton and many more are seen wearing these sensual and provocative lingerie to fashion shows, dinners and celebrity parties. ?If you're not sure which sexy black leather corset to buy, then look at?this online store - www.black-leather-corset.co.uk - you're sleather lingerieure to find exactly what you had in mind, or perhaps even something more scintillating than what you'd originally envisaged!
