1920s Crochet & Silk Slip Lingerie Piece sold There is some light discolorationThis is a pretty blush pink silk and crochet lingerie piece that looks to be from the 1920s. It would have been made by hand and hand crocheted. The top is a square, open weave design with simple straps that curve over the shoulders. It has a pretty ribbon that loops through the crochet that you can tighten to fit which will allow it to work for a variety of sizes. Under this falls a tubular column of silk cut loose and easy. Very pretty and sweet.
