corset
n.
A close-fitting undergarment, often reinforced by stays, worn to support and shape the waistline, hips, and breasts.
A corset is a garment worn to mold and shape the torso into a desired shape for aesthetic or medical purposes (either for the duration of wearing it, or with a more lasting effect).
The most common use of corsets is to slim the body and make it conform to a fashionable silhouette. For women this most frequently emphasises a curvy figure, by reducing the waist, and thereby exaggerating the bust and hips.
pantyhose
pl.n. American English
A woman's one-piece undergarment consisting of underpants and stretchable stockings.
Pantyhose are sheer close fitting coverings of the body from the waist to the feet, most frequently worn by women.
The term 'pantyhose' originated in the United States, referring to the combination of 'panties' (an American term for women's underpants) with sheer nylon hosiery. In the United Kingdom, they are called tights.
