Edwardian Titanic Era Black Cobweb Net Chantilly Lace Gold Lame Mesh Lined Bodice

This antique Edwardian Titanic era black cobweb net Chantilly lace gold lame mesh lined bodice dates from 1912. It is made of a sheer black fine cobweb net with woven black thread embroidery work, black braid silk woven trim edging and a black Chantilly lace overlay collar. This beautiful black bodice has a uneven handkerchief hem sheer net capelet overlay with a baby blue chiffon, black silk backing, tiny black beaded button trim down the front, is sleeveless with an open V back trimmed in black silk braid, button accents, missing closures on the back and is lined with a gold metallic lame woven mesh fabric sewn inside. The top measures 16 inches long, with a 40 inch chest and 36 inch waist. Included are pair of matching net uneven handkerchief hem sleeve cuffs which had been removed from the top and measure 7 inches long, 5 inches wide across the wrist. It is in good as-is condition, a "wounded bird", in the process of being altered or remade, missing the sleeves, frays on the blue silk chiffon lining underneath and missing closures (see close-ups). Great for upcycling. This is truly a wonderful piece of wearable art!
