The game changer: A corset top

Some of fashion’s most exciting designers, from the iconic Miuccia Prada to emerging label Brock Collection, are stripping back the corset’s more seductive connotations in favor of something infinitely more elegant. From evocative milkmaid-style puffed sleeves to baroque basques in pretty brocades, these delicate pieces might be softer, but they’ll still bring the drama, even if you take a tip from Amal Clooney’s recent red-hot look and team yours with something as ‘basic’ as denim. Spring/summer style all sewn up.
