Welcome to our Ask the Expert column where we answer all your fashion conundrums.

This month we talk about corsages. You might recognise the corsage from American rom-coms of the ’80s and ’90s as a coming-of- age symbol of high schoolers attending prom. It’s 2023, and the corsage is no longer just a prom night accessory – it can be styled with sophistication.

Wear it with a tailored suit

Go sexy (but sweet)

2/3

Unleash your inner wild child – with a hint of girlishness, of course. A pretty choker corsage will do the trick. It’s a great look for dancing and partying the night away with the squad.

Add it to your existing pieces

3/3

A well-made and beautifully designed corsage goes a long way in jazzing up your bandeau tops or jackets. We recommend an oversized one for a more dramatic effect.
