Freaky or Fabulous? SAW Nurse Wears The Blonds Syringe Corset

FabSugar — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 14:00:22 -0700

No, you're not looking at the next trend in red-carpet wear. Ouch, that would hurt. This is the ad campaign for Lionsgate's movie SAW VI and the latest SAW “Give ‘Til It Hurts” blood drive, benefiting the Red Cross. It was created by Ignition Print and shows a sexy nurse in a needle-clad corset, designed by corset kings, The Blonds. It's not practical, obviously, but it sure does pique interest. If anyone could pull it off, it would be Lady Gaga. What do you think - freaky or fabulous?

Look of the Day: Fabulously Funky

FabSugar — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 04:50:22 -0700

Blondie Britt showed off her styling skills today wearing a smashing corset top and skinny jeans, but what really grabs my attention are her fun accessories. The gold sandals are slick and her embroidered hat is fabulously funky.

Here's what she has on:

Hat: Aldo
Corset: Seduction
Jeans: Seduction
Sandals: Fioni

Congrats to Blondie Britt!

Fabworthy: Target Go International Gray Bustier Top

FabSugar — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 14:00:22 -0800

Bustier advocates, like myself, get ready to go gaga over this Target Go International Gray Bustier Top ($25). It took mere seconds between finding it and ordering one for myself. I just received it and can't wait to experiment.

I've long been a fan of bustier/corset bodices and especially love what Proenza Schouler does with them. But I normally don't wear them in an obviously sexy way. Instead, I layer over a contrasting tee for coverage and added interest. Now that I'm sure this one looks good in person, I had to share with my girls.

Sneak Peek! Vintage Victoria Valentine's Day Collection

FabSugar — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 10:00:22 -0800

This one's for all you lovers out there; Victoria's Secret has just released its Valentine's Day, Vintage Victoria collection. Like the name, the line is filled with old-school glamour boasting a romantic selection of sultry bras, garters, and corsets. I fancy how the mix of lace, ruffles, and soft colors emit a simultaneously sultry and sweet attitude. Tickles your fancy? The collection is available online and in stores.

Trend Alert: Sweet Corsets

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 09:00:22 -0800

Sweet corsets are back. This flattering cut can do you no wrong with its structured corset shape and romantic appeal. I also like how the light boning reminds me of old-school lingerie. I'm swooning over this Nanette Lepore Indochine Dress ($430); the juxtaposition between the sweet style and bold print makes for a radical frock.

Who Says Geeks Aren't Sexy? The Sexed Up Star Trek Corset

GeekSugar — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 13:06:16 -0700

It's not like Uhura's minidresses and gogo boots in the new Star Trek are making any statements about equal rights, but they're still light years more reserved than this Star Trek Corset, $200, from Etsy seller and apparent Trekkie EveningArwen.

I'm not saying I don't approve; I'm just saying that any males you sashay around while wearing this may need to be beamed away from you.

Trend Alert: Corset Tops

FabSugar — Fri, 04 May 2007 11:29:22 -0700

Marilyn loved 'em, Madonna loved 'em, and I love 'em too. A quintessentially feminine top, the corset top is flirting via fabric. Top one of these off with a pencil skirt or your favorite pair of skinnies and get ready to bat those eyelashes. You can sex one up with a fun pair of cork heels or you can tone one down with a pair of chic flip flops. Bustier girls beware: I would say if you are larger than a C cup these aren't for you. Cleavage is a beautiful thing, but you don't want to send the wrong message!

Super Mario Bros. Corset: Totally Geeky or Geek Chic?

GeekSugar — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 03:10:13 -0700

Holy Mario. Though I shudder to think what Tim Gunn would say about this (and what would Christian say? "Hot tranny mess," or "fierce"?), but I have got to give it up to Etsy seller The Vintage Doctor, because this Super Mario Bros. Corset looks labor-intensive. It sold out a couple of weeks ago, which is a shame, because I need something to wear when I play Wii's Mario Kart for the first time (tee hee). How does this outfit make you feel?

Celeb Style: Paula Patton

FabSugar — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 11:00:22 -0800

Paula Patton showed off her beauteous bod at the AFI Fest in LA wearing a silk Bottega Veneta dress. The corseted detail injects a sexy vibe to the modest mauve tone, and I love her strappy Jimmy Choo sandals. To complete the look, the actress adorned herself with crystal-drop earrings, choker necklace, and matching silver cuff. Scintillating, to say the least.
