This gorgeous bodice has all the classic Victorian bells and whistles, and a spectacular peek-a-boo lining. Lace, silk , tulle, and charming bows are the key ingredients of this antique fashion confection. Glimpses of the black and white silk striped lining are visible through the lace sleeves and add a unique flair and a touch of modernity. An absolutely delectable piece for your eclectic collection!
