7 Celebrity-Approved Ways to Style Corsets

Head turner corsets can be traced all the way back to Victorian high fashion. It’s a classic trend that never fully died down. Every few years, corsets manage to resurrect and find themselves on every runway and every red carpet. There is a reason for that. If worn right, corsets can shape and define your curves in an almost irresistible way. And no, they don’t break any ribs.

As an inspiration guide for you, we scoured through celebrity Instagram pages and plucked out 7 looks that you can take style cues from. It’s time we bring corsets into our OOTD! 

 

You Can Never Go Wrong With All White

Be it Deepika’s semi-casual white tube corset with white distressed jeans or Ananya’s white and sheer ribbed dress (which is perfect for your next Saturday night on the town BTW!), there is something about an all-white outfit that just effortlessly screams showstopper. 

 

Bling Bling Bling

If there is one person we can count on to bring the bling it’s Kim Kardashian. When you throw in Kim’s undying love for vintage clothing and corsets, this look becomes quintessentially her. This ‘shine-brighter-than-a-diamond’ vintage Dolce and Gabbana corset cord-set worn over a black body suit is the perfect blend of chic and OTT. 

 

The Monochrome Jumpsuit

If you look at Jahnvi Kapoor’s style files, it’s clear that the young actress is coming into her own. She picked this blue corseted jumpsuit from Antithesis while promoting her upcoming movie, Good Luck Jerry. The long off-shoulder jumpsuit features translucent panels around the mid-riff and broader legs. It makes us love monochrome fashion even more. 

 

Go Goth

Recently, we spoke at length about how you could use one of this season’s most prevalent trends to channel your inner Goth. This look by Sara Ali Khan is one of the best examples of how you can do that. Her black gown by Norwegian designer Kristian Aadnevik features a dramatic tulle tail, and a lace corset-style bodice, which was adorned with crystal bows and braided leather, cinching the waist. 

 

For Your Next Soiree

From Malaika Arora’s muted yellow bodycon strappy corset dress to Kiara’s white knee-length corset dress from House of CB, corsets are the new black. 

 

Summer Prints

A lot of you will agree that summer dresses are wardrobe staples. Take a look at this chic outfit donned by Bhumi Pednekar. A sarong-style corseted summer dress with abstract prints, a mid-thigh slit and a low neckline. It’s the outfit you need for your next tropical getaway! 

 

Keep It Casual

Sonakshi Sinha shows us how corsets can be casual with this form-fitting denim dress paired with a denim jacket. It’s a classic look that can go from day to night in a matter of seconds!
