This is an antique Ladies bodice from the Edwardian or Victorian era. Dates around 1890 - 1900. It is black silk with enormous mutton sleeves, with lots of decorative beading. Look at the beadwork on the sleeves. All orginal hooks and boning inside.

This bodice is for study or possible repair. The fabric has lots of splits/tears in it though I feel the sleeves could be salvagible to use on another top, if you're handy with a sewing machine. Also, the boning and all the hooks can be used for other projects. Sold as is.
