Sheer Ivory Embroidered Wedding Bustier Corset w Garter Straps – 38-44C, 1950s

About the Item

A wisp of an undergarment that packs a powerful punch, this corset bridges the gap between naughty and nice. Super sheer and delicately embroidered, it reveals nearly everything when worn alone, but its structure and sturdiness conceal it all when worn under a garment. Ravishingly feminine. Ivory bustier of sheer mesh embroidered with white thread; nude elastic mesh inset panels at sides and back. Lace trim above cups and satin piping at front underwire. Eight full-length flexible bones and four detachable garter straps; double adjustable 15-hook rear closure.

    Though it looks and wears like a negligée, this wisp of a garment was an intermediate step between the chemise-style undergarments of the Victorian era and the separate bra and panties we wear today. Called “step-ins”, they made ideal sleepwear and were essential underpinnings for the lean, drop-waisted silhouettes of the 1920s. Especially feminine with its bias flounce legs, this one would make exceptional bridal lingerie...

    Located in Tucson, AZ
    "Wooly Bully" indeed! Words can hardly describe this incredible piece of mid-century fashion: a robe so unique and cozy you'll want to wear it outside the boudoir, thanks to its outrageous Leonard-inspired jungle print lining. And though it probably wasn't meant to be worn inside-out (as the interior has neither pockets nor belt loops) it can easily be reversed so the plush side is in and the jungle print is on display for the world to see. Reversible bath robe...

Cut much like a 1950s swing coat, it could easily double for lightweight outerwear or a chic tunic worn over leggings. Collarless drop shoulder robe embroidered with tonal chrysanthemums; wide bracelet length sleeves and hip-high slits both sides. 5 frog closures with brass buttons from throat to waist; fully lined in matching whisper weight crêpe de Chine. fabric: padded Canton silk...
