Wedding corset

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Wedding corset by an unknown artist. The image shows a white mannequin torso wearing a gold corset. The corset is made of shiny gold fabric, possibly satin, with a smooth and slightly reflective surface. It is a strapless design with a straight edge across the top. The top edge has a thin layer of cream-colored lace. The corset is closed at the front with five black buttons. The corset is shaped to fit closely around a woman's torso, with a narrow waist and a flared bottom. The mannequin is white and featureless, with no head or arms. The background of the image is a plain gray color.
