Vintage 1940's lingerie set was made consisting of a bralette and tap pants. Made from silky pale powder pink silk that is slightly sheer with a delicate luster. Both pieces feature satin floral appliques on the right side of the cup and hip, with the tap pants decorated with arching pintucks at the left. The bralette closes with rear eye-hooks with vertical stitching, while the tap pants sit high on the waist with double button closure at the right hip. A subtle yet beautiful set!
