Black brocade and antique brass-coloured clasps give the Brasslock corset its steampunk character. The underbust shape leaves room to style it over a shirt, dress or your favourite top, while the patterned fabric adds detail without changing the all-black look.

The corset has 20 spiral steel bones and four flat steel bones. It closes with metal clasps at the front and has back lacing with a 6-inch modesty panel. The shell is polyester brocade, backed with fused 100% cotton twill.

Measurements: 11 inches at the front, 9.5 inches at the side and 11 inches at the back. The back lace is 6.5 metres long.
