ASTRID embroidered green corset

This green Astrid corset is a concentrated example of Cadolle's expertise: it sculpts the waist, refines it without restricting it, and embraces the bust without ever crushing it. It is cut from satin lined with embroidery, in the Cadolle tradition where the material first serves the design. A lazy lacing at the back accompanies the dressing ritual: you lace, you unlace, you gradually discover the curves. Hand-applied embroidery perfects the design.

More a ceremonial piece than an everyday item, this Astrid corset extends the Cadolle legacy: six generations of women dedicated to a single silhouette.

Cadolle's advice: Wear it over a satin skirt, tuxedo trousers, or bare under an unbuttoned white shirt. Astrid requires two to three wears to find its ideal fit—patience rewarded with an hourglass figure.
