Delightful new old stock water green silk habotai flapper bra and French knickers set is sure to please the discerning collector. Mint condition and totally wearable, this rare two piece ensemble from the 1920s is also a very hard to find larger size! Water green silk is fashioned into a bralette with delicate pleats to curve around the bust, lace inserts curve in the same line as darts and help with shaping. A lace insertion at center front adds more sex appeal with flashes of skin showing through. Silk ribbon straps, and three very sturdy hook and eye closures add function to form, and a hand dyed silk ribbon rose tops the center front. Rare wax stamens are still intact in this lovely floral adornment.
French knickers are incredible, with a very flowing and scalloped bias cut that appears as a skirt when worn on the body. Asymmetrical lace insertions add unusual detailing, and yoke waist keeps everything at the midriff sleek and smooth, while pantie closes with two pearl buttons at side. Bra fits a size M/36 as tagged and measures the same, pantie measures 15 across the outside of the waist, and will best fit a M/28 in order to allow for ease of movement. Original paper tag notes Size 36.
