1890s 1900s Combination Step-In Lingerie, Edwardian White Cotton Lace Chemise and Drawers with Back Skirt, XS 23 Waist

Gorgeous antique 1890s 1900s Victorian Edwardian white cotton and lace combination undergarment with an attached camisole and drawers with a skirt back! Historically this type of antique undergarment was the first item worn before putting on a corset. This is the second I’ve seen with the ‘skirt’ back which conceals that the front is actually open drawers at the crotch.

She’s styled with a lace trim neckline and shoulders with an interwoven blue rayon ribbon tie closure. The lace is stunning with a fleur-de-list type design. The center bodice is open (no closures) to the waist where another ribbon is interwoven through for a tie closure. Three button closures down the front which helps to conceal that there are actually lace trimmed wide leg drawers.
