Bodice

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Pink bodice with long sleeves and beige lace trim. The bodice has a sweetheart neckline and is decorated with pink and brown floral patterns. It features beige lace trim around the neckline, sleeves, and hem. The sleeves are long with flared cuffs and beige lace at the ends. The front has a corset-style closure with beige lacing. The background is a solid gray color. The garment appears to be a historical or vintage piece, likely from the 18th century, by an unknown artist, titled "Bodice".
