C. 1930's. A pair of beautiful and feminine "tap panties" made from ivory silk with beige net lace hem and a floral embroidered pattern at each side leg. the left side hip fastens with buttons. They still have their original "Butterfly" brand label on the inside.
I was lucky enough to acquire one ladies complete underwear trousseau from the 1930's which was lovingly packed away in an old vintage suitcase all these years. The lady's daughter said that her mother used to buy her fabrics from France and have the underwear made up elsewhere, sometime by nuns! Please see my other listings for the rest of the gorgeous items from this lady's trousseau and prepare to be dazzled!
The pair is in good wearable condition but there is extensive dark yellow age marks and spotting down the front. Still would be fine for wearing with a vintage 1930's outfit without having to worry about ruining a pristine pair.
A medium/large size. Waist measures 33" (best fit a waist of 30"- 32"), Hips measure Hips measure approx. 48" (best fit a hip of 38"- 42" for ease of fit), Length from waist to hem is approx. 19".
