This beautiful and intricately laced hand-stitched soft ecru Edwardian corset cover is yet another beautiful and rare piece from a collection of apparel from a prominent Westchester family’s estate. The corset cover was found among a number of lovingly wrapped trousseau items in a box from a shop in Paris dated 1887. It is distinctive for its elaborately designed embroidered and beaded dimensional lacing in fanciful period floral motifs on its hand-stitched French Tulle body; along with its elegant silhouette and rather coquettish open de'colletage styling (see photos). The piece is estate fresh and in quite good vintage condition (see photos). The corset cover measures about 38-39” around when closed in the back with snaps hidden by small hand-laced buttons and 12” deep at it’s widest point, in back. The lace straps measure about 16-17” (see photos).
