The corset doesn’t have the best reputation in fashion history, but unlike the dangerous versions of the 18th and 19th centuries, the trend is back this year and more wearable than ever.
With t-shirt styles, loose fabric lace-ups and corset belt versions, there are plenty of ways to wear the accessory without gasping for air in 2017.
