12 Craziest Corsets

Heavy Metal Corset

Everything old is new again. Maya Hansen's heavy metal themed corsets are a far cry from the straight-laced undergarments of the Victorian era. Featuring 'Kiss', 'Slayer', ‘Misfits', 'Iron Maiden' and 'Metallica', these corsets are definitely not your grandmother's underwear.

Beer Tab Corset

For the next time you're at Oktoberfest, the beer tab corset. It combines a lot of cool things: recycling, cute accessories, historical clothing and beer.

Plastic Corset

This amazing corset is from Issey Miyakes 1980 Autumn/Winter collection, it is moulded from red plastic.

Super Mario Corset

Apparently somebody out there with a serious Mario fetish has decided to create a corset using his likeness. Overed with rare 1980s Super Mario Brothers fabric, this oddity was created by TheVintageDoctor. Complete with a lace-up back with metal grommets, Mario will help you keep your waistline in check in case you gobble down too many 1UP mushrooms.
 

Piercing Corset

One of the newest trends in body modification comes in the form of corset piercings. They are a series of surface piercings arranged up the back in two vertical columns. The piercing is located in the spot where the eyelets would be if one was wearing a corset. It is a symmetrical piercing with an equal number of holes on each side. As few as four holes can be used (two on each side) up to as many as the expanse of skin will allow.

Star Wars Corset

The Dark Side has never looked so sexy! It's a Darth Vader corset. Besides the fantastic Star Wars Lord Vader mask print which looks to be from Revenge of the Sith, it has an alternating flames print fabric and it topped with a pair of polka dot ribbon bows (to show the softer side of the Force). A Star Wars corset with flames…wow.

Clock Corset

Be the center of attention at the next costume party you attend in this one of a kind ensemble created especially for the Norwescon 32 Fannish Fetish Fashion Show. Inspired by Pretty Alice from Harlan Ellison's classic story "'Repent Harlequin!' said the Ticktockman," the corset is made of three layers of fabric: a cotton coutil inner-lining for stability, a layer of micro corduroy for texture, and two-tone rust colored taffeta that has been torn in many places to allow the natural beauty of the bleach-distressed micro corduroy peek through.

The center of this corset is a sight to behold- A WORKING CLOCK adorns this piece surrounded by gears and elegant black pleated trim that also finishes the hem along with two small antiqued brass chain loops for decoration. The center front extends down to the knees, accentuated by a gigantic rusting tractor gear mounted on taffeta.

LED Corset

This outfit consists of a silver corset top with diagonal quilting detail. A grid of red, blue, green, and gold LEDs is embedded in the corset, and designed to fade and flash in a variety of patterns to suit your mood.

Star Trek Corset

What's more sexy than this Star Trek Corset ($200), from Etsy seller EveningArwen? It can be made in any of the Star Trek colors.

Darth Vader & Storm Trooper Corsets

California based costume and corset maker Evening Arwen has released a pair of fancy unlicensed corsets based on the costumes of Darth Vader ($600) and the Imperial Storm Troopers ($500). "No Galactic Ruler should been seen with a purse so we've provided you with storage compartments in your utility belt, suitable for holding the keys to your starship and your communication device. Only a swishy cape can make a grand entrance really grand so we've also attached one to the matching shrug. And to finish things off, we've also provided a pair of gauntlets that can fit over most regular sized dress gloves. "

Corset T-Shirt

This design is inspired by all the girls that got their back pierced so they could pull a ribbon through. It looks sexy, so does this t-shirt, but it's a lot less painful. The ribbon is nice and purple and it stands out in a crowd, even around pierced people.

Half-Bust Corset

This Antiseptic Fashion's Hypsipyle leather corset ($600) is smoldering hot and only covers one breast for the adventurous, wow!
