I don’t think I have to point out that these designs are unusual and definitely not for the shy! Sold internationally to high-end boutiques and online, Puimond Corsets are named after the designer, Puimond himself. Based in Los Angeles, Puimond has been making corsets professionally since 1997, and told TLP that he is “obsessed with detail.”

Every Puimond corset is made to order by a selection of style, size, and materials. The corsets themselves are made of heavy busk closures, fabrics, and leathers, and each corset is lined with imported English cotton Coutil. Puimond says that standard-sized corsets fit as well as custom or made-to-measure corsets about 90% of the time, but he also offers custom corsets, which he has made for celebrities and shows. All of his corsets are strong and sturdy enough to withstand any tightlacing routine. And as you can see from the photos above, you can get a very dramatic hourglass figure with a Puimond corset! He has also made jackets to fit over his corsets, which further emphasize a tiny waist. To see more, to purchase, or to get more information on a particular corset, visit Puimond.com.
