EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a woman in the height of 1930s fashion, proudly modeling a Berlei corset and uplift bust lingerie set from 1933. The woman's graceful pose exudes confidence and elegance, as she accentuates her figure with the intricately designed corset and suspender belt. The lace overlay of the uplift bust adds an alluring touch, while the medium-weight support ensures a flattering and comfortable fit. The corset, a staple of women's undergarments during this era, was designed to shape and define the waist, creating an hourglass silhouette. The suspender belt, with its attached stockings, was a practical and stylish solution for holding up stockings without the need for garters. This advertisement for the Berlei corset and uplift bust set, produced in 1933, highlights the importance of undergarments in shaping and enhancing a woman's figure during this time. The intricate lace details and elegant design of the lingerie set reflect the attention to detail and craftsmanship of the corsetier's art. The 1930s, a decade marked by glamour and sophistication, saw a surge in the popularity of lingerie as outerwear, with women often wearing their most beautiful and intricately designed undergarments as a statement of fashion and style. This image captures the essence of that era, showcasing the allure and elegance of a woman adorned in her finest undergarments.
