Gorgeous romantic goth panelled corset-look bustier with plastic flexible boning.
Purple crushed velvet (I can't tell if it is cotton or poly velvet, I think poly)
Wide straps and slightly squared off scoop neck in front, v-neck in back. Edges are outlined in black cording, and the neck opening and front opening also have a 5/8"W velvet ribbon with cording pattern.
Back Zip entry.
Front lacing is black cording, and is fully adjustable but the center is not backed by material so if you let it out be aware that skin will show.
Side panels: matte black slightly stretchy nylon type material.
Fully lined in black acetate type material. (except behind the rows of grommets: which is velvet probably since lining material would be prone to rip in this are)
Note: this is accentuate your waist, not to actually train like shape-wear.
The plastic boning is light and flexible.The material has give, so it can conform to your body shape nicely (but I'd stay close to the measurements given, if I remember correctly I had to be close to the measurements to wear it since it didn't has too much give, and I didn't want to release the front lacing too much).
Flat Measurements:
approx. 24"L overall (with straps)
14"L at front center
14.5" W bust
12.25" W waist
Flares to 16" W at high hip (approx. 9.5" from arm hole opening)
1.75"W straps
Metarial content: Unsure but my guess is polyester, with nylon/spandex side panels, and the lining feels like acetate.
Almost positive: Made in USA.
Care: Unsure, but I would guess either dry-clean or hand wash (it's still in great shape and I know I had handwashed it in the past with care the times I wore it).
