Story & heritage
House of CB was built on cinch, shape and body-conscious construction, so a corset top that feels this resolved is not a side project. The official page presents 'The Balconette' as a new wardrobe staple, but its square neck, boning and hook-and-eye front all echo the brand's longstanding dress vocabulary.
It matters that the label applies the same shaping logic outside dresses. 'The Balconette' shows how House of CB's identity can live in separates too, with the same hourglass emphasis but more styling flexibility.
Materials & craft
The official listing calls out heavyweight stretch ponte, lining, refined boning, a square neckline, wide straps, discreet hook-and-eye fastenings and a back zip. Viscose and elastane are specifically mentioned to explain the top's stretch and smooth handfeel.
How to choose & style
Use 'The Balconette' as the cleanest entry point into the House of CB universe. It works with trousers, leather minis or denim, and benefits from styling that keeps the neckline and structure visible.
