    Description

    This is the most beautiful vintage brassiere I have ever seen! This 1940s strapless bra is made of what feels to be a white satin with underwire, beautiful stitching on the torpedo cone shaped cups that has subtle floral embroidery on the top half and without on the bottom and 2 rows of hook & eye closures on the back. Looks very similar to the Celebrity brand bra shown in the vintage advertisement. Now I see where so many fashion designers got their inspiration for making cups on dresses from, this vintage beauty!
