A satin bustier with ruched bow detailing across the bustline, supported with polymer bones at each seamline and fastening with hooks and eyes at the centre back. Silicone coated elastic trims the neck edge of the garment, helping the garment to stay in place on the body. The style is similar in its style lines to the cathedral bra shape that was popularized in the 1950s, but offers a more rounded silhouette to the bustline.
From the collection of Karolina Laskowska
