This iconic 1950s 'bow' bra by Bali is made of very sheer black lace mesh with Bali's signature bow applique in the center bust and a satin lined overwire that flatters the figure beautifully. The 'bunny ear' shape of the wire gives incredible structure and darted cups with quilted stitching along the bottom of each cup that gives great support and the classic yet subtle bullet shape to the bust. A truly rare style, with a deep plunging center and padded satin band that offers comfort and support below the bust across the rib cage. With wide stretchy panels and eye-hook closure in the back, and satin lined padding on the inner layer over the wire ends to protect both the garment and the skin. Perfect for a boudoir photo shoot and an excellent choice for any vintage lingerie collection. This rare style is a collector's dream!

A Note on Buying Vintage
A Note on Buying Vintage
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.
