Wasp waist refers to a woman’s fashion silhouette produced by a style of corset and girdle that has experienced various periods of popularity in the 19th and 20th centuries. Its primary feature is the abrupt transition from a natural-width rib cage to an exceedingly small waist with the hips curving out below. It takes its name from its similarity to a wasp’s segmented body.
