Hello and Welcome to the Textile Trunk! Please follow us on Instagram, we are @textiletrunk ~**~ This is a lovely bodice in good shape! It dates to the early 1900s and is constructed of a cotton and wool blend. The lining is a lovely plaid, and the sleeve lining is a different plaid. I love the pleating details on this piece, they add great dimension to this piece! The lining on this piece closes with hook and eyes, and the outer layer closes with snaps. I do not feel any boning in this garment. Truly a great piece for wear or for study! MEASUREMENTS : Length: 17.5 inches long Chest: 26 inches Waist: 24 inches Shoulders across the back: 11 inches Sleeves: 22 inches long from shoulder seam to cuff ~*~ CONDITION : This blouse is in as found, not freshly laundered condition. This bodice is in great condition for its age! There is some rusting on the hooks, and some mending around the neck. Otherwise, this bodice is in lovely condition indeed! Not without signs of time and use, often inherent in these pieces, but all in all a lovely bodice! ( E bodice 62A ) 04/26/21

Hello and Welcome to the Textile Trunk! Please follow us on Instagram, we are @textiletrunk ~**~ WOW! This bodice is amazing not only on the outside, but on the fabulous pieced inner lining as well, dating to the 1890s! The outside of this is a lovely brown wool blend, with amazing silk velvet trim on the cuffs and the neck. The inner lining is pieced out of a few different, AMAZING, cotton fabrics. It all looks to be handstitched to me. This bodice is petite - take a look at the measurements. It may have been worn by a girl or a young woman, or just someone particularly tiny! This bodice is phenomenal and in good shape. Truly a great piece for wear or for study! MEASUREMENTS : Length: 16 inches long Chest: 28 inches Waist: 22 inches Shoulders across the back: 15 inches Sleeves: 13.5 inches long from shoulder seam to cuff ~*~ CONDITION : This blouse is in as found, not freshly laundered condition. As stated above, this piece is in lovely condition indeed! I see some slight rusting on the hooks and eyes. One piece of the lining is coming away slightly on the inside but it is not at risk of ripping or tearing. All in all, a fantastic garment, not without signs of time and use often inherent in these wonderful pieces. ( E bodice 48 ) 05/14/21
