The world of bridal dresses has always known how to appreciate a good corset, but this season we are witnessing a step up – the sculpted corset. This is no longer a corset that ends at the natural waistline, but an architectural creation that extends slightly downward, creating a pointed or rounded finish, from which the skirt bursts out. This structure creates the illusion of a long, stem-like body, while maintaining a perfect balance between the softness of the fabric and the shaping rigidity. Each designer chose to give this trend their own unique interpretation, from rich textures to clean and minimalist lines.
Shlomit Azrad: Architecture of Softness
At Shlomit Azrad, the sculpted corset receives a particularly clean and noble expression. The corset is characterized by sharp contours that emphasize a very narrow waist, and in its lower part it ends in a delicate, sculpted "peplum" that emerges from the structure itself. The combination between the tight upper part and the flowing pleated skirt creates a harmonious look, in which the sculpted structure serves as a strong yet feminine visual anchor.
Berta: The Drama in Clean Lines
Berta takes the trend to a place of powerful minimalism. The corset in her design is characterized by smooth, stretched fabric with a rounded and soft finish at its lower part, placed over a delicate pleated skirt. The contrast between the stable, sculpted corset and the continuous movement of the skirt creates a dynamic, modern and sexy look, emphasizing the feminine silhouette at its peak glory.
Julie Vino: Games of Transparencies and Textures
Julie Vino’s interpretation of the sculpted corset trend is rich and complex. The corset here serves almost as a decorative "armor" – it combines opaque fabrics with elements of lace and mesh at the neckline and shoulders. The lower finish of the corset descends in a deep and sculpted way over a fitted skirt rich in texture, creating an impressive design continuity that blurs the boundary between the corset and the skirt.
Liz Martinez: Effortless Couture
At Liz Martinez, the sculpted corset receives a twist of "lingerie couture". The structure is emphasized through visible stitching that highlights the natural curves, combined with plays of transparency in the chest area. The elongated corset is placed over a delicate lace skirt, thus creating a look that is on one hand very structured and on the other hand conveys lightness and European freshness.
Galit Robinik: Volumetric Romance
Galit Robinik chooses to emphasize the trend through dramatic volume play. Her sculpted corset is decorated with elements of wide and prominent folds at the waistline, a kind of built-in "short skirt" above the main skirt. The use of fabrics with delicate polka dots gives the sculpted structure an additional layer of depth and movement, and creates the look of a modern princess who is not afraid of presence.
Nika Rehani: Classical Sculpting in a Modern Interpretation
Nika Rehani’s design presents a sculpted corset that combines embroidery and rich handcraft work in its upper part, blending with a smooth and exceptionally sculpted lower part. The corset extends downward in wide and impressive curves that provide immediate volume already from the waistline, creating a particularly dramatic "hourglass" silhouette that echoes the worlds of classical sculpture.
