Beautiful moire silk bodice circa early 1900s with a maker's label inside that reads:

Mrs. Council

Modiste

This is a beautiful bodice and well made. It would have originally had a collar insert, which is now missing.

+++ Measurements +++

35" bust

26" waist

17" length in front

15" length in back

+++ Condition +++

Good overall condition with some underarm discoloration and weakness in the fabric there also. A small water spot on the front. Some stains and a couple of small stains in the cotton lining.

All closures present. Missing original collar.

Likely best for study or display but would be wearable with extra care.

This item is sold from a vintage boutique in Houston, TX.
