agree Desmond O'Rourke : bustier is the comparative form of the adjective busty, not a noun

Thanks Desmond. I have to point out that bustier is also clothing. Please, do make a web-search with word bustier and compare the results.
agree Minna Wood MITI (Purring CAT Ltd.) (X) : OED: 'close-fitting strapless top worn by women', ie. korsetti
