It's BOTH!
This suit was modeled by Terri during the Farthingales Corset Fashion Show but the incredible design and expert construction was all done by Jennie Wonnacott. The jacket has corset details built right in complete with boning and back lacing! It had a matching skirt and a custom made hat by Helen Flower

Corseted Ladies Suit
A buisness suit with the corset built right in! Jennie Wonnacott designed and is creating this vintage inspired suit for model Terri Dans whose short hair and glasses create an incredible professional look. The suit jacket is boned and features lacing up the back just like a corset, visible bone casings have been included as a design feature and the herring bone weave panels are beautifully cut to meet. The photo is of the mock-up stage "Yes, there will be sleeves."
The skirt is also spectacular with several panels creating a flared hem and some of the panels are bias cut.
This is a great example of what a corset can be when we think outside the box.
You can see the finished version of this corset suit jacket at the Corset Fashion Show on Friday October 22nd at 1:00 during the Creativ Festival
