And this one is quite unique, so I am not entirely certain what to call her.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIf you look back in the old Godey's and other lady's magazines, you probably will not see them referred to as Swiss waists, but that is what they have become known as today. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eI believe this one dates from around 1865. It is really superb, with its little beaded trim that looks like flowers and faceted glass buttons. This would have been worn over another waist\/bodice. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis particular one is interesting for several reasons. It does not have any boning, and it also fits over the bust, not under the bust like so many others. I really love the shape. I have seen some bodices in a similar shape and style in fashion plates dating from 1865. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-single__description rte\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e+++ Measurements +++\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e30\" bust\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e23\" waist\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e19\" long\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e+++ Condition +++\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVery good condition considering age with minor wear including some faint spots\/stains on the silk that are barely visible and a few tiny holes. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePlease see all of the photographs and use the zoom function for the best condition details. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDue to her age, this piece is best for study or display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e+++ Please read +++\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThis item is not new, and as such, it has wear commensurate with age.
