They don't make 'em like this anymore! Feast your eyes on this glamorous 1940's-1950's cream colored overwire bullet corset. It was hand tailored in Hollywood, California by a company called De Milo. It features two columns of hook and eye clips in the back for adjusting the size, rigid boning, a deep cut front, amazing tailoring, it's original metal garters and elastic slides, and sheer floral peekaboo accents at the top of the bust. Overwire bras were a popular shape in the 50s. And like the bullet shape, provide a distinctive vintage look. The wire runs around the top of the strapless bust and provides great support, making is an excellent choice for strapless gowns and tops. This unusual structure creates a rounded, softly triangular shape and would make a great addition to your vintage lingerie collection.
