50s/60s Black Lace Strapless Bra

Late 50s or early 60s strapless bra.

• Black nylon lace with smooth lining.
• Plunging front for low-cut styles.
• Each cup has double boning and three-part sewn construction, with elastic beneath.
• Additional boning at sides for stability.
• At back, double elastic bands join at a two-hook, adjustable closure.

Please note that to keep our garments completely clean, we avoid using live models for intimate apparel. Bebe the Mannequin's curves have no softness or give, so the bra does not fit her as well as it would an actual woman.

Fiber/Care: unmarked, but almost certainly nylon and elastic, hand or gentle machine wash

Condition: nearly perfect. back elastic is like new, under-cup elastic has lost a bit of its stretch
