What is a "basque"?
A basque is a type of fitted garment that extends from the chest to the waist, and sometimes to the hips. It typically has a tight, corset-like structure that creates an hourglass shape, and is often made of a combination of lace, satin, or other decorative fabrics. The basque can be worn as lingerie or as part of an outfit, and may include features such as boning, underwire, or straps to provide support and enhance the shape of the wearer's body. Some styles of basques may also have attached garter straps for use with stockings.
