💠 The essentials in three ribbons of satin

  • Era: Victorian England – circa 1880
  • Material: white cotton voile, light and breathable
  • Finishings: English lace, coloured satin ribbon, elegant shoulder buttons
    Estimated time: 1 to 2 weeks

✨ Beneath the lace, the promise of a ball.
Beneath the corset, it slips in like a whispered secret. Light, airy, almost intangible, this sleeveless chemise recalls the lingerie worn by Sissi, Victoria, or any lady of high society preparing to shine beneath the chandeliers.

– Loose, comfortable cut, designed not to restrict movement
– Neckline adorned with English lace, highlighted by a satin ribbon (colour customisable)
