Vintage 1950s Ivory Crystal Pleated Full Slip Lace Trim Bodice Micro-Pleat Hem S

This ivory slip is a study in texture from top to bottom, its bust cups shaped with fine crystal pleating that catches light with every movement, framed by soft ecru lace along the neckline and crossing beneath the bust in a delicate X seam. The bodice gives way to a smooth, unadorned midsection before the skirt drops into a wide band of matching lace and an accordion-pleated fringe hem, a detail rarely seen on slips from this era and one that turns a simple foundation garment into something worth wearing on its own. The pleating throughout speaks to the kind of old-world construction techniques that have all but disappeared from modern lingerie making. No maker’s label remains, but the fabrication and finishing point to 1950s craftsmanship. Measurements laid flat: bust 16” (32” around), waist 15” (30” around), length 42”.   Please keep in mind that this is a vintage item. I do my best to note any flaws or imperfections, but some light wear is consistent with age and use. This is part of the charm of owning a vintage piece.
