If you're someone who can stomach a bit of pain in the hopes wearing something beautiful, then these armor corsets offer exactly that.
Made by Andrew Kanounov, these corsets look like they're made out of metal, almost like they're piece of a woman's medieval suit of armor. I was surprised when I discovered that these armor-like corsets are in fact made out of leather. Granted, being made of leather with a metallic finish helps to make these armor corsets a lot more comfortable than if they were made of actual metal. The pattern work on the armor corsets give off a very strong Celtic feel that complements the metallic look very well.
Though it won't stop a sword, Andrew Kanounov's armor corset is certain to stop people in their tracks.
