Dating from the 1860s, Europe, probably France, this beautiful ice-blue ultra fine silk bodice.

Entirely hand stitched throughout, it has been finished around the hems and sleeve edges with narrow rows of ruffles.

It has full pagoda sleeves and the pretty back slits allowed it to be worn with the fashionably full skirts of the day.

Inside the upper bodice back is lined in polished chintz, the rest has been lined in cream silk.

Measurements:

chest. 77cm

waist. 61cm

length. 57cm

Condition:

In excellent condition for a bodice from this era. A couple of small dark marks to silk, some overall mottling to blue silk. Nothing detrimental to the garment as a whole.
