A stunning French 1920s tap pants and bralette set made of sheer black silk crepe and gorgeous Chantilly lace. The bra has a lace overlay covering silk with thin straps and eye-hook closure in the back. True to the era, the shape is quite modest to give the 'flattened' shape with just a bit of curvature in the bust area. The tap panties sit high on the natural waist with double side buttons for closure. The lace provide a decadent 'peek a boo' to the sides and extend entirely covering the upper thigh with a wider hip and fluted hem. This lingerie set is ultra sexy and a very rare find especially in its condition. Excellent choice for any flapper-style enthusiast or lover of all things nouveau.
CONDITION - Very good: The top has definitely been altered, as the label says it is a size 34 but actual measurements are MUCH smaller, and the end with hooks looks to have been hand sewn. The panties have a mend spot in the gusset, but is completely invisible when worn and does not affect structure. Additional photos of closeups are available upon request.
