What is the primary function of a corsage?

The primary function of a corsage is to adorn clothing, typically worn on special occasions. Corsages are floral arrangements worn by individuals, often attached to clothing, and are popular for events such as proms, weddings, and formal gatherings. Their design and placement serve to add elegance and beauty, enhancing the overall appearance of the outfit. While a corsage can contribute to the color palette of an outfit as well, its main purpose is to serve as an accessory that highlights and complements the wearer’s attire for celebratory events.

Other functions, such as creating a scent or forming a bouquet for a wedding, are more suited to different floral arrangements and accessories. A corsage's primary role focuses on adornment rather than fragrance or serving as a bouquet.
