This very rare vintage 1950s U wire bra from Formfits' Holiday line features lightly darted sheer black lace cups edged in frilly lace and lined in tulle, with a deep U shaped separator wrapped in satin that allows for scandalously low necklines. A single red rosette adorns the upper right cup, which adds a very sweet touch. Thin adjustable straps and a very low adjustable wrap back allows this bra to accommodate open back tops and dresses nicely. Perfect for the pinup boudoir.

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.
