XS-S-- Victorian Swiss Waist with Side Panels

$160.00
This piece had me stumped for a while, but I believe this is most likely a Victorian theatre piece, possibly meant to resemble rococo fashion. It appears to be fully hand-stitched, and has what I believe are baleen stays, as they are dark when held up to a light. The panniers style hip panels are a semi-sheer cotton or linen with a very faint floral print that has faded with time and washing. The piece cinches with a black silk ribbon.

There are some scattered faint spots, most notably on the pink lining.

Waist up to 24" when cinched closed, up to about 26"
18.5" total length (top seam to longest point)

Shown on 5'5" model, 28" waist, 40" hips
