Nice to Meet You
- What-I-Found
- Living On The Road
- My name is Tina and I am lucky enough to live an interesting life. My husband does safety inspections on amusement rides, so we travel all over the country full time in our RV. We get home to Seattle or Florida to visit our grown kids, but for most of the year we are traveling from amusement parks to state fairs...to little tiny traveling shows.
I shop in all those places to find patterns for my shop. But I come across other things that are too good to keep to myself. So I want to share here.
Come see What-I-Found!
A note: If you are interested in purchasing any of my finds (and you'll give them a good home), please contact me.

What's interesting is that despite the time period, it's not trying to make the bust look like a mono-bosom. Does this make it the grandaddy of all bras?
ReplyDeleteI was struck by the fact that it was designed for "Stout" women. And all the work it must have taken for these gals to get dressed. This piece alone has straps and lacing, and who knows what all. And it held up your skirt and hose.
ReplyDeleteAnd I don't even want to think about laundry day.
