Item Details.
This is absolutely gorgeous!

A midnight blue/black silk velvet bodice with silk and gold hand worked embroidery. Embelished with gold sequins and pearls.

We think this waistcoat may be Swiss. It has tiny eyelets running down either side of the center front which would have been laced with a ribbon and worn over a loose muslin of light cotton blouse.

Measurements taken with garment flat:
Across front: 35cm
Waist: 30cm
Length: 35cm

Condition: Very Good
It's in very good condition considering it's age. The lining has gone and there are only a few shreds of the pink left but it’s useful to be able to see the construction and hand loomed linen interlining which supports the bodice and gives it body and stiffness.
