The Corset is a clothing item added in the Royalty DLC.
Acquisition
As a complicated garment, Corsets can only be made at tailor benches, and requires Noble Apparel to be researched in order to be crafted. A Corsets requires 45 of any textile, and 12,000 ticks (3.33 mins) of work.
It can also be found on Imperial Nobles, for sale at traders and as a quest reward.
Summary
Corsets cover the same layer of clothing as a flak vest. They can be worn over shirts and under outer layer clothing.
Female Nobles of Baron rank and above require either one of these, a Eltex vest, or prestige armor to consider themselves properly dressed and avoid a negative moodlet. The male equivalent is the Formal vest. Male pawns will receive a mood debuff while wearing this item.
When worn by a slave, a corset increases the rate that suppression is lost by 10% per day. This stacks additively with all other forms of suppression loss rate offsets.
Analysis
Even the best corsets provide dramatically less protection than a flak vest: a masterwork thrumbofur corset having about as much sharp protection and worse blunt protection than an awful flak vest, which also covers the neck and shoulders. However, flak slows a pawns' movement speed by -0.12c/s, a 2.6% reduction on a healthy, unmodified, untraited pawn. This is a small, but potentially relevant downside.
If speed is critical, then the recon armor is much more expensive, but completely outclasses the duster/cape + corset combination. Thus, the protective niche for the corset is small - where top tier textiles like thrumbofur or devilstrand are available and where either:
- movement speed is significantly more important than protection, but recon armor is not available; or
- a research state where corsets are available and flak vests are not.
Corsets are also considered noble clothing; Barons and Counts will become upset without one. Prestige recon armor is even more expensive than normal recon to create. Eltex vests boost psycasting power, but can't be crafted and protect worse than even a plainleather corset. It may be desirable to switch to flak during combat, taking the mood penalty in the process.

Trade
As of 1.2.2900, formal vests and corsets are the most efficient method of turning textiles into products for sale, assuming the Royalty DLC is enabled and equally skilled crafters and constructors are available. Without Royalty, this role is instead taken by armchairs and dusters. This also represents a way to train skills while also profiting from the pawn-hours invested.
Note that this is only a general rule - other considerations can exist. If a skilled crafter is unavailable, or a particularly skilled constructor is, armchairs may still be a better option due to the effect of Quality on Market Value. Additionally, generally speaking when crafting or constructing a Skill Level 6 or above to guarantee, no matter the material chosen, that selling the product is more profitable than selling the materials. However, the exact skill level each material becomes profitable depends on the Work To Make of the item, the number of materials required, and the market value of the material. Lower value materials are profitable at lower skill levels. For example, cloth corsets require only a crafting skill of 1 with a average market value modifier of 68% to average a value higher than the 67.5 of selling the cloth itself, while the most expensive textile, thrumbofur, requires a skill level of 5 to do the same. Thus, a skill level of 5 is sufficient to average profitable for corsets for all available materials.
