This versatile foundation garment is made to sculpt and support. Cinching the waist with an internal elastic tape, shaping the bust with structured cups, and smoothing the torso with powermesh wings, it creates the coveted hourglass silhouette beneath strapless gowns or off-the-shoulder looks. Six detachable metal suspender clips keep your stockings secure, while spiral steel boning provides structure without rigidity. A front hook-and-eye fastening makes it easy to slip into, and detachable straps add styling flexibility.

Crafted from gleaming satin (100% polyester) with stretch powermesh (88% polyamide, 12% spandex), the Glamour Merry Widow balances vintage allure with practicality. The lower cups are softly padded with 3mm foam for shaping and support, making this merry widow corset as wearable as it is beautiful.
