Hand-embroidered silk teddy, 1920s
The label, Lehman's Lovely Lingerie, says it all. The teddy is indeed lovely with decorative faggoted seams and hand-embroidered blue French knots. It is fashioned from pale pink China silk.
The crotch strap opens and closes with mother-of-pearl buttons. The top band has narrow ribbon drawstrings on the inside to adjust the fullness.
The condition is mint. The teddy, which has never been worn, still has the original Jordan Marsh sales tag. You could have bought it for $3.65 in the 1920s.
The size is marked 36.
It measures: 38"-40" bust, 44" waist, 46" hip, and 27" center-front
length.
