12 Corset Tops That Are Chic As Hell
We only recommend products we love and that we think you will, too. We may receive a portion of sales from products purchased from this article, which was written by our Commerce team.
Thanks to shows like Bridgerton and the viral Regencycore aesthetic, corset tops are everywhere right now. Daring, statement-making, and surprisingly versatile, the best corset tops are more wearable (and less costume-y) than you may think. The majority are designed to fit close to the body for an extra-snug, shape-defining fit, but not all corset tops have traditional restrictive features, like boning and tight lacing. Some have zippers for easy on-off; some are made of stretchy, forgiving fabrics; and some just have corset-inspired features, like decorative lacing up the front, or bustier-like bra cups.
Deciding where you’re planning to display that Regencycore enthusiasm is a good place to start when shopping. Corset tops with plunging necklines, in luxe materials like satin and lace, or adorned in daring cutouts make a statement for a night out. If you plan on wearing yours in the daytime, you may want to opt for a casual corset (yes, that exists!) with a simple, unadorned silhouette.
Also, think of how much or little support you like. People who don’t want extra support may prefer a corset top stitched to mimic a corset without the traditional boning, while others may prefer the extra support that underwire and boning can offer. Straps offer additional structure as well, in addition to nodding to the Regency era.
Day or night, Regency or modern, here are 12 of the best corset tops you can buy right now.
1A Best-Selling Corset Top With A Modern Edge
This corset top with over 1,700 5-star reviews is a modern take on the Regencycore trend, thanks to a cropped hem and exposed back zipper. The slightly dipped V-hemline and straight, strapless neck nod to the Regency era without feeling overly antiquated, while the stretchy spandex and polyester fabric and boning offer support. With so many cute, on-trend colors to choose from — like avocado green, chocolate brown, and lilac — you’re sure to find a fave. Whatever shade you choose, make like Bella Hadid and modernize the look even more with some baggy pants.
Rave review: “LOVE THIS TOP. It looks and feels expensive! It’s true to size, not see through, and easy to put on. 10/10 would recommend!”
- Available sizes: 00-0 — 12-14

2This Minimalist Corset Top With A Hook-&-Eye Closure
Regencycore may be all about excess, but minimalists can find their groove in this corset top. The square neckline and front hook-and-eye closure are unadorned by any ruffles or bows, and a modern cropped hem keeps it modern. A compressive blend of polyester and spandex mimics the look of boning, and offers extra support. That minimalism adds to the top’s versatility — it’ll look equally good with high-waisted denim or sleek satin pants.
Rave review: “I love this shirt! [...] It’s is a stretchy material so not like a traditional corset. It’s not see through so you could get away without wearing a bra but as I’m a 36DDD I decided to wear one for the extra support and boost. For reference I am a size 8 US 150lbs and ordered a size M. Definitely super cute, would recommend.”

The soft, unwired cups are flexible and comfortable. It’s available in 12 shades as bold as the design; this vibrant purple shade is particularly of-the-moment.

The cropped hem will look so cute paired with either high or low-waisted pants; an exposed back zipper keeps the look modern and ensures it’ll be easy to put on or take off. It’s made of a stretchy polyester and elastane blend and is enforced with flexible boning, so you get all the benefits of the corset aesthetic, with the modernity of comfort.

8This Denim Bustier Top That’s So Y2K
If you’re feeling more Britney than Bridgerton, try this denim corset top. It channels classic corsetry with a sweetheart neckline and padded bustier cups, while adjustable straps allow you to alter for fit; it’s free of boning, but the hook-and-eye closure and low-stretch cotton denim offer corset-like support. A straight hemline and bullet-style stitching at the cups offer just a dash of Y2K inspiration. Pair this with high-waisted denim bell-bottoms for a spin on Britney and Justin’s infamous matching Canadian tuxedo looks.
Rave review: “This cute denim crop top was just as expected and great quality! The straps detach if you wish and the top and bottom of the crop top is lined with a non-slip border so the top stays in place! If you order small, with the back hook & eye fasteners adjustable, know you could be anywhere from a 32A to probably a 34 or even 36 B and it would work for you. The cups will be a tad roomy for an A cup, but still wearable. Great purchase!”

Bridgerton devotees, step right up: The floral satin design of this corset is tailor-made for you.

A cotton lining keeps it breathable — and it’s machine-washable! — so even though you’ll look era-appropriate, you don’t have to suffer like people in the olden days. Pair it with denim for a sweet daytime look, or with a long, satiny skirt for evening.

11A Corset-Inspired T-Shirt With Rhinestone Laces
If comfort is queen, you’ll love this corset-inspired T-shirt. Perfect to dress up or down, this top has short sleeves, a scoop neck, and rhinestone laces that lace down instead of up for a fun twist on the classic corset feature — but the ultra-soft fabric and relaxed fit are more forgiving than an actual corset. The laces allow you to control the fit and how much you reveal or conceal, though you can always layer a fitted tank underneath if you want more coverage.
Rave review: “Let me start by saying I AM SO GLAD I took the chance and got it. I loved it as soon as I put it on. I loved it as soon as I put it on. The material is soft and stretchy and I love the rhinestone chain. I love the way it fits and looks on me. Even looks cute without a bra (I have DDDs).”

It may not be a corset per se, but Bridgerton energy is on full display with this lacy underwire bra. Whether you wear it as a bra peeking out from underneath a silk shirt, or on its own as a top, you’ll appreciate the delicate, scalloped lace cap sleeves (a bra with sleeves? Genius!). That gorgeous eyelash lace continues on the unlined cups and adjustable straps and bodice. It would be a stunning addition to a black satin suit.
Rave review: “This bra is amazing. First of all, the color is perfect. Then we get into the fit. It hugs your breasts so nicely and creates just the right amount of cleavage. What makes this bra extra special is the ruffled cap sleeves.

It looks so special and makes you also feel very special. I love this bra and am sure that you will, too!!”
