Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this top machine washable?

Due to the structured nature and fabric composition of the piece, dry cleaning or hand washing in cool water is recommended to preserve the shape.

Does the top have built-in boning?

The top features a structured design inspired by corsetry to provide a clean, modern silhouette.

How should I choose the right size?

We recommend following standard UK sizing charts. Since the top is structured and offers less stretch than casual wear, refer to your bust and waist measurements for the best fit.

What materials are used in this top?

This garment is crafted from a high-quality compact viscose blend, chosen for its smooth finish and durability.

Can I wear this for casual occasions?

Yes, it can be styled down with denim or casual trousers for an elevated yet relaxed look.

Does the black color fade easily?

To maintain the depth of the black color, store the garment away from direct sunlight and follow professional dry-cleaning guidelines.

Troubleshooting

Top feels too tight at the ribcage

The corset top is designed for a firm fit. If restricted, verify the UK size matches your measurements; you may need to size up for comfort if you are between sizes.

Fabric appears wrinkled

Avoid high-heat ironing. Use a garment steamer held at a safe distance or a cool iron on the reverse side to gently release wrinkles without damaging the viscose fibers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a sleek and modern structural silhouette
  • Versatile design suitable for day or evening wear
  • High-quality compact viscose material
  • Classic inspired aesthetic that remains timeless

Cons

  • Structured fit requires precise sizing
  • Limited stretch compared to casual knit tops
  • Requires gentle care to maintain structural integrity

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your garment, always follow the care label instructions sewn into the interior. Due to the structured nature of the corset design, it is recommended to hang the top on a shaped hanger rather than folding it to prevent unwanted creasing in the bodice. For cleaning, professional dry cleaning is often the best method for viscose blends to avoid shrinkage or fabric distortion. When pairing with jewelry, be mindful of clasps or sharp edges that could snag the compact viscose fabric.
