Corsetry appears throughout history, and in the 20th century, corsets resurfaced through pop culture shows like Bridgerton and Euphoria. Corseted styles have been on trend for several seasons, with slight modifications each season. Corset-style tops were projected to be a key trend for fall, and it is proving itself to be true. Styling a corset for fall is fun and fresh, with new variations on the rise. Don’t worry if you have corsets from the past season; There are some options for styling those for fall as well.
Moto-Inspired
Both Balmain and Dior showcased padded bustiers and metal-plated designs tapping into a futuristic edge in their fall lineup. The moto corset is designed for protection and functionality. It also serves effortlessly as a fashion statement. The use of mixed media in the moto-style corsets creates a tough exterior that goes deeper than the actual materials used to create the styles.
Luxurious Satin
Circling back around to more traditional corseted styles for fall, expect to see gowns complete with corset-style bodices made of silky satin. Glamorous dresses are historically seen in tandem with corsets, so this makes sense. A soft pink corset from summer transitions into fall when paired with a tulle skirt or a bit of luxurious fur to lean into the grandeur of satin.
Alluring Illusions
Call it a split decision whether undergarments are meant to be worn as outerwear. Wearing a corset with shiny finishes, strappy details, and touchable fabrics is tantalizing, and it’s a total trend win. Feeling good in your skin comes within, and a corset made of sexy red velvet or cutout black details is sure to boost your self-esteem.
Mood’s Free Corset Sewing Patterns:
Corsets of the past were associated with restricting designs and achieving an ideal body time, but those beauty standards have been kicked out. Corsets now are about feeling good and looking good; No need to sacrifice comfort for beauty. The corset trends for fall are a nice mix of romantic and sultry with a sprinkle of nostalgia. Who would have thought corsets would become versatile enough to survive season after season? Definitely not me, but I’m pleasantly surprised.
