Lingerie...
One my favorite things to collect is lingerie!It just doesn't get more feminine than 1920s lacy bed jackets, and 1940s bullet bras. I have always been inspired by vintage lingerie,old smutty magazines, and Edwardian pinup.
This particular 1920s lace bed jacket is one of my favorites! I got it a awhile back and i practically live in the darn thing! I love the heavy lace detail and the small pastel flowers near the shoulder.
Sadly I don't find enough pretty lingerie to often any more, but recently I uncovered 100+ dead stock 1940s stain and lace bullet bras! They are all in need of 'bra sliders',but once i find and sew them on they will be hitting the shop!
Until then i can only dream about recreating my own vintage inspired lingerie!
