Vintage 1950's Girdle - Black Mesh with Embroidered Chiffon & Rayon Satin Panels by Camp | Small, Medium

This very rare vintage 1950s girdle by Camp was made from a black rubber mesh material with gorgeous rayon satin and embroidered chiffon panels that offer smoothing effects as well as decorative flair. This girdle sits high, cradling the very bottom of the ribcage and cinching the waist, which provides a sleek silhouette for the wearer. Wide metal stays at the sides, center back, and front abdominal panel provide support while slimming the figure nicely. What makes this piece so special is the wrap around wings that hook into adjustable grommet 'wings' that help to slim the hips to your liking. 6 satin ribbon covered trolley garters hold your stockings up high, with metal zip and hidden eye-hook closure at the side for ease of wear. Very sexy and highly collectible, perfect for the pinup boudoir.

This is an antique or early vintage garment made from delicate materials such as silk, fine cotton, lace, or early synthetics. These textiles may display signs consistent with age, which includes:

• natural fiber fatigue
• gentle thinning at stress points
• subtle irregularities inherent to early manufacturing
• age-related softness or patina

These qualities are authentic to historic garments and are considered part of their character, not defects, unless otherwise stated.

Notable flaws, such as excessive wear, stains, holes, or rips will always be photographed and disclosed in the condition notes.
