Just a gorgeous vintage black lace Merry Widow foundation bustier with with a miniature rhinestone in the center top.
A beautifully made strapless Merry Widow bra underwired foundation with the illusion look. Sheer black nylon lining the black lace foundation. There is also a heavier fabric inside the cups to give them some support with a metal underwire. There is not a lot of padding in the cups, mostly just a shell. Five nice strong stays on the front, sides for support for keeping the foundation up and in shape. Strong elastic Spandex & Elastic on the rest of the bustier for a wonderful fit. Metal garters and adjusters with black satin ribbon over each one. Two rows in back with 15 hooks and eyes on each row of the merry widow, Nice slightly curved back. It looks as though it is new and has never been worn and if it were, it was worn very little.
Extremely feminine and sexy and perfect for wearing with your cocktail dresses, evening wear and formals.

Care Instructions
We examine each item carefully and note any imperfections, but unless an item is said to be new, please don't expect it to be perfect & even some new items have small imperfections. I will always state in the description if there are any imperfections & I never do repairs but leave them to others who are better able to do them than me as that is not my expertise.
Please remember that unless specified all items have been used and will show varying signs of use or wear. We always list the obvious imperfections to the best of our abilities. However, some slight imperfections that will not show or affect wearing or using the item may slip by or not be considered worth mentioning.
Vintage nightgowns & peignoirs may be delicate so I do not wash them in the machine. I wash them in lukewarm water with Woolite or some other mild soap, then rinse & hang dripping wet in the shower.
Since these are vintage items, a bit of extra care needs to be taken with them so they remain beautiful & I definitely would never put a vintage nightgown or a peignoir in the dryer as it would ruin it.
The items are sold as we find them. We do not dry clean, launder, alter or repair vintage clothing and they should be cleaned or washed upon arrival. Please make your selection carefully & check the measurements as there is no return on clothing or other items.
