Gilet corsage refers to a type of women's fashion garment that combines elements of a vest (gilet) and a corset (corsage). It is designed to fit closely to the body, providing both structure and shape, much like a traditional corset, but with the stylistic and functional elements of a vest. This garment typically features a button-up front, similar to a gilet, and may include boning or lacing to enhance the corset-like fit and aesthetic.
