Lace trimmed silk teddy, 1920s

This charming teddy is fashioned from pale pink China silk. Since it has never been worn or washed, the fabric is still slightly stiff with the original finish.

The top is trimmed with a band of handmade filet lace. A narrow silk ribbon is threaded through the lace to adjust the fullness. The shoulder straps are blue floral satin damask ribbon. The lace trim around the bottom edges is machine made. I love the ribbon art roses on the shoulder straps.

The crotch strap does not open so the teddy is a step-in.

The condition is mint. It has never been worn.

The size is marked 36.
It measures: 38"-40" bust, 42" waist, 44" hip, and 27" center-front length.
