Corsetry is an artform that's been around since the 15th century. Once seen as a mainstay in the French court, the style is paid homage by
Dion Lee's Spring/Summer 2022 collection with structural pieces like the
Utility dress. An intricate panel of eyelets to the centre and architectural boning throughout forms a silhouette not too dissimilar from Parisian parlours of old. Lee's own edge-driven twist emancipates the design, offering sultry allure with utilitarian influences.
