From Vivienne Westwood’s seminal F/W 1991 “Dressing Up” collection - a study in eroticism, history, and the female form - this fully-boned corset is one of the designer’s most collectible creations. Crafted in lustrous white satin with long fitted sleeves, the piece features an inset panel printed with Jean-Honoré Fragonard’s A Swarm of Cupids, framed by opulent gilt scrollwork detailing that evokes baroque portraiture. Produced in England to couture standards, each corset from this series was made in extremely limited quantities, many now held in museum archives including London’s V&A. A rare opportunity to acquire one of Westwood’s most iconic designs - a museum-level artefact of 1990's British fashion history and an enduring symbol of her genius for transforming art into seduction.
