Corset top from Carmen Marc Valvo.

Need an instant upper body lift?

The corset dress will lift your breasts and whittle your waist, and look fantastic and edgy while doing it.

You can choose a dress with a built-in corset for the bodice or opt for a separate corset top with a skirt.

This look adds curves to slender figures and structure to fuller figures: it's great all-around for flattery.
