The shaping seams through the bodice create a surprisingly flattering fit, while the open neckline and cropped cut make it incredibly easy to style with high-waisted skirts, denim or layered lingerie pieces.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThe construction and materials strongly suggest genuine age. The piece is handmade with period construction details and older finishing techniques throughout. While an exact date is difficult to guarantee with handmade folk garments, it is being dated conservatively as antique to early vintage, likely somewhere between the 1920s and 1940s.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThe embroidery has a beautiful softness and irregularity only really seen in older hand-guided work, and the lightweight netted underarm inserts further support the earlier dating.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGood antique\/vintage condition with general gentle wear consistent with age.
