In the very heart of the Spanish capital lies a small boutique on Fuencarral street, number 43, Lily Blossom. A look through the glass gives us an idea of what we are going to discover inside.

When the doors are open, a whole world of silk, lace, Venetian masks and delicious smells drive us

to the more sexy and secret part of the haute lingerie. One of the main features of this brand is the large number of corsets you can find, most of them part of limited editions. A big ritual of underwear lovers from many years ago, and we can say that this boutique has taken that into account.

LILY BLOSSOM BOUTIQUE

In the sixteenth century the corset began to gain popularity, but then they were just another part of the women's attire. The dresses were very rigid and they needed the corsets to improve the stance

and posture of the women's backs. Also, during Romanticism, it was considered an essential part of

the vestment and was simply used to strengthen the waist and increase the woman’s breast.

Finally, in the eighteenth century, the corset officially became a part a woman's underwear

and that’s when this sensuous garment triumphs, among high society of the French court.

From that time the corset has established itself as a key player in high lingerie and we begin to

see all kinds of them and they have continued awakening curiosity thanks to their beauty, fabric, and sensuality.

Nowadays designers all over the world, as well regarded as Gaultier, have used them as an iconic and

distinctive element that comes with the increasing femininity of the female form.

Thanks to Kunza Corsetiere we can find an endless range of possibilities in Lily Blossom’s store. The boutique gives you the chance to create your own and custom made corset, converting your underwear in a real piece of art for between 100€ and 700€. But it's not all about the corsets.
