The word corset top is often used interchangeably with the word corset. A corset top is a modern version of a corset, but it is not used as an undergarment; rather, it is worn as a shirt. Many specialty lingerie shops sell corset tops for women.
A corset top does not function like a traditional corset. While they may have lace-up backs and boning like a corset, they do not significantly affect or shape the body of the wearer. They do need to be tightly fitted, either.
Corset tops can be bought in small, medium, large, and plus sizes. Corset tops are not custom fitted by a corsetry tailor as they don't need to fit that tightly. The wearer's measurements are not taken, unlike with the traditional corset.
The only problem with a corset top is that its size may not fit well with the wearer's body measurements. It may fit well on the breast area but not on the waistline. Or, it may fit well on the waistline but the breast space will be too small. If the wearer's body isn't toned, cellulite or fat may bulge.
Many celebrities wear corset tops as a fashion statement in televisions shows or at awards nights.
The best thing about a corset top is that it can be paired with pants or a skirt. A corset top can fit a formal or casual look as they do not restrict the movement of the wearer unlike corset dresses.
A corset top may be used as to maximize a woman's breasts and make small breasts look fuller. The wearer will look shapely and slimmer, and her cleavage will be shown off.
