Corsage

A corsage is a piece of clothing for women very similar in look to a corset, but contrary to the corset it does not fit as tight, and it usually is not boned. Simplified, you could say a corsage is a sort of ornamental corset, and it is often confused with a corset because the look alike.

It is also the term used to refer to the bodice part of a dress.
