FAQs
What is the best way to store the Alaia Corset Top?
Store the top folded flat in a breathable garment bag to protect the wool and the internal structural splinting.
Can I wash this item at home?
No, this garment is crafted from fine wool and features a delicate internal structure; it must be professionally dry cleaned.
Is the corset structure uncomfortable?
The splinting is designed for a sculpted look and generally feels secure; however, it provides a firm fit rather than a stretch-only fit.
How does the sizing translate for the UK 10?
The UK 10 follows standard luxury sizing conventions, designed for a tailored, form-fitting silhouette.
Can I wear this under a blazer?
Yes, its sleek design and long sleeves make it an excellent layering piece under tailored jackets or blazers.
Troubleshooting
Visible creases or folding from storage
Lay the item flat on a clean surface and lightly steam from a distance to allow the fibers to relax; do not iron directly onto the structure.
Minor pilling of the wool
Use a specialized wool comb or sweater shaver gently, moving in the direction of the knit to remove excess fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this garment features specialized internal splinting, it should always be stored flat or on a padded hanger to avoid distorting the internal frame. Avoid hanging it by the shoulders for extended periods to prevent fabric stretching. To maintain the integrity of the wool fibers and the corset structure, we strongly advise against domestic washing methods. Always consult a professional dry cleaner who is experienced in handling structured wool garments. When styling, be mindful of jewelry with sharp edges that could snag the ribbed knit fabric.
