What is a Foundation Garment?

A foundation garment is an undergarment designed to temporarily alter the wearer's body shape, to achieve a more fashionable figure.

Women have worn foundation garments, such as corsets and brassieres, for a very long time.

A Torsolette is a short corselette, covering the chest to the waistline, as the picture displays.

The modern-day Torsolette features lace-up or hook-and-eye fastening, as well as boning or vertical seams for structure and support.

Better known today as shapewear, these garments include body briefs, bodysuits, bras, control pantyhose, control panties, corsets, garter belts, and girdles.

An undergarment is similar to a Victorian-era corset, but with less compression of the ribs.
