What is a bustier?

What is a bustier? This is an item of women's wardrobe, which can be both underwear and outerwear. In appearance it resembles a shortened corset or, conversely, an elongated bra. If you add a wide lace stripe at the bottom and 5-6 hooks at the back to a regular bra, you get a bustier.

This model of underwear came to us from France, translated from French as “bust”.

What is a bustier - the photo perfectly demonstrates this detail of a woman’s toilet.

A bustier vaguely resembles a corset, but has a significant difference in purpose.

The purpose of corsets is to tighten the abdomen and waist. They practically do not stretch, often have steel inlays and eyelets made of metal. More rigid and uncomfortable.

The corset, as an element of women's wardrobe, appeared in the Renaissance. For many centuries, society ladies have achieved a thin waist using corsets.Everything would be fine, but women of that time constantly experienced discomfort, and many even lost their health for the sake of the desire to be beautiful.

Bustier - what is it? The main purpose of a bustier is to support the breasts. The wide lower part may partially serve as a tightening function, but this is not the main task. Essentially, this is an updated corset of our time. It does not cause women suffering or discomfort. Fashion has become more democratic and does not require rigid strings. A bustier, like a corset, helps to improve a woman’s figure, lifting her breasts and making the image more attractive and perfect.
