Late Edwardian Lace Bralette, c. 1915–1923
This rare antique bralette dates to the late Edwardian to early 1920s period, a moment of transition in women’s undergarments when rigid corsetry began to soften and early bandeau-style brassieres emerged.
Crafted entirely in fine net lace with applied floral motifs, this piece features a straight, unstructured silhouette designed to sit lightly against the body. Prior to the introduction of molded cups and elasticized support, such garments were worn layered over a chemise or beneath sheer dresses, often in combination with corsets or girdles.
Time has left its gentle mark. Several age-related pinholes were present, consistent with the fragility of early lace. These areas have been sensitively restored using period-appropriate antique lace appliqués, carefully integrated to preserve the integrity and spirit of the original garment. The straps have been replaced to improve wearability, a common and accepted practice for antique lingerie intended for modern use.
A romantic survivor of early 20th-century lingerie history, this bralette is best suited for careful wear, collection, or display, and offers a rare glimpse into the intimate craftsmanship of the Edwardian era.

PLEASE CHECK MEASUREMENTS BEFORE PURCHASE!
Vintage and antique clothing often differ from modern standardized sizes. Many were handmade for an individual, so sizing can vary. Instead of relying on a labeled size, compare the given measurements to a garment that fits you well. If you have any questions about fit, feel free to ask—I’m happy to help!
Condition & Care
• Vintage and antique items have been previously loved, so small imperfections may exist.
• Hand-dyed pieces: Due to the nature of hand-dyeing, colors may not be perfectly even. Please wash these items delicately, preferably alone or with similar colors.
• Antique fabrics (pre-1930s): Delicate materials such as 1920s silk or Edwardian muslin require extra care. These fabrics can be fragile and should be worn loosely to prevent stress or tearing.
