The Corset is a clothing item added in the Royalty DLC. Female Nobles of Baron rank and above require either one of these, a Eltex vest, or prestige armor to consider themselves properly dressed and avoid a negative moodlet. The Male equivalent is the Formal vest.
Acquisition
As a complicated garment, Corsets can only be made at tailor benches, which requires Complex Clothing & Noble Apparel to be researched in order to be constructed. A Corsets requires 45 of any textile, and 12,000 ticks (3.33 mins) of work.
It can also be found on Imperial Nobles, for sale at traders and as a quest reward.
Analysis
Corsets, along with its male counterpart - formal vests, are unique in the noble clothes in that they don't have a direct regular clothing equivalent. Instead they take the slot of a Flak vest. Compared to flak vests, even the most protective corsets provide dramatically less protection than a flak vest, with a masterwork thrumbofur corsets having about as much sharp protection and worse blunt protection than an awful flak vest.
Despite their superior protection, Flak vests do not meet a noble's clothing requirements however. In this case, equipping the noble with Prestige recon armor, Prestige marine armor, or Prestige cataphract armor when expecting combat is by far the superior choice, as all three both offer significant protection and meet the clothing requirements.
Male pawns will receive a mood debuff while wearing this item.
Trade
As of 1.2.2900, formal vests and corsets are the most of efficient method of turning textiles into products for sale, assuming the Royalty DLC is enabled and a moderately skilled crafter is available. Without Royalty, this role is instead taken by armchairs and dusters.
