Breathtaking antique late 1890s early 1900s Victorian black lace evening bodice with black beading and beautiful watered silk trim! This bodice is so feminine and pretty with fantastic tiered lace sleeves with interior bubble hems. Cross-over lace in front with watered silk bow accents and waist trim. The backside has beaded lace panels that criss-cross and hook into place near hem. Fully lined in silk taffeta with a very fine sheer tissue silk over layer.
