Description

An early - mid 19th C chemisette from France, made of silk tulle and embroidered with flowers on the front panel.

The 'chemisette' is camisole-style garment that was worn tucked under a bodice in the 19th century to fill in low necklines for modesty and decoration purposes.

Today it could be worn as a camisole over a bra top, or it under a gown in a reenactment, photo styling project or used in display.

Size : XXS - XS

Measures : bust 80 cm including tabs under armhole, 40 cm front length shoulder to pointed hem, 43 back length

*measurement for bust is taken seam to seam then doubled.

In great condition with signs of use as expected with age, please see pictures for closer details. A couple of small marks on left shoulder front + back that may disappear if hand washed with a gentle detergent. Slight discolouration around the embroideries, see photos.
