Alaïa Vienne leather corset belt

A hallmark of the maison, the corset belt is an enduring symbol of Alaïa's celebration of form. This iteration features the signature Vienne motif, a delicate, laser-cut pattern that lends intricacy and lightness to the structured silhouette, designed to define and sculpt the waist.

The art of the detail

Expertly rendered in supple black leather, this corset belt showcases the house's mastery of form. The wide, architectural design is defined by the iconic Vienne pattern, an intricate web of laser-cut perforations that create a captivating interplay of texture and dimension. Its construction features a series of precise pin-buckle closures that ensure a personalized fit. The smooth leather is contrasted by the graphic openwork, resulting in a piece that is both substantial and visually delicate.

How to wear

Transform everyday silhouettes with this defining accessory. Cinch the corset belt over an oversized blazer, teamed with tailored trousers, to introduce structure and command to a professional ensemble. For evening occasions, layer it upon a flowing knit dress and complete the look with heeled sandals, creating a dramatic focal point that accentuates the waistline. Its versatile nature allows it to redefine proportions and add a point of interest to both minimalist daywear and sophisticated after-dark looks.
