Ribbon Corset

Starts under the bust with high points in the center front and center back. Lacing in the back and a separating busk in the front. Comes in at the waist to accentuate and slightly compress. Goes down over the hips just enough to be proportional and maintain the waist compression, and ends in a basque at the front and back. Bones are concentrated on the sides, front, and back.
