THE HISTORY OF THIS SLIMMING GARMENT
They have been in fashion since the 20th century in the woman's wardrobe. Although we do not know who their creator is, it was the Victorian era that established them in fashion.

They were also used to be paired with a mini-ball gown or over a short-sleeved Blouse on certain occasions, for waist training.
