The design of a corsage is governed by the principles of design – all of which apply to a corsage no matter how small. Those of the most obvious importance are: Proportion – The scale of materials to each other in the design and scale of the corsage to the recipient Balance – Comfortable balance, symmetrical or asymmetrical Focal Point – The point at which all stems come together Additional elements of design of great importance in corsage design are: Weight – A corsage should be light Compactness – A happy medium of spacing Security – Good quality of product and good mechanics
