  7. I love this. It can be so chic and sexy at the same time. At spring I'd love to try it under really loose cardigan.

  37. Oh my all these are so sexy! I love the look of a bustier, but they seem rather tricky to put on without assistance!

  38. A trend Dolce do very well indeed :)
    The Christian Cota is ever so pretty too.

  44. Hi Couture Carrie!

    Hmmm. Bustiers ... the bane of my existence. I'm unfortunately one of those gals who don't have full chests (translated, I'm as flat as a board, grr!). I've worn some with quite a lot of padding inside, though. Isn't that funny? I like the new idea though of layering the bustier on top of another constructed top. I'm excited to try this new look and see if it works for me. Thanks for posting this great inspiration board!

  47. I love corsets!! I have a collection of over 80 corsets- can you believe that?!
