We all know that diamonds a corset is a girl’s best friend right? Any doubts
just ask burlesque star Dita von Teese, Mad Men actress Christina Hendricks…

… or showgirl Kylie Minogue…

No other fashion garment pulls you in in all the right places, enhancing
your natural curves and giving you a sexy hourglass figure. A good corset
can not only give you a very feminine silhouette and posture but also
become a signature of your personal style. After all as the saying goes:
“You can tell a showgirl by her corset.”

Many of the best showgirls and burlesque performers get their corsets
from couturiers, vintage lingerie designers or they have them custom
made.

Here is a little burlesque fashion inspiration with some of the most
breathtaking – literally – corsets from the most stylish haute couture
designers, showgirls and fashion magazines, so you too – regardless as
to whether you are a real burlesque star or an imaginary one like me! -
can have a stunning showgirl style corset to put on your very own
Burlesque show in.

Enjoy!
