Incomplete bodice, ca. 1845

Maine Historical Society
The front and side panels from this 1840s style teal blue figured silk bodice do not survive, exposing an under-lining
once applied for warmth. The wadded lining also created a smooth pigeon-breasted bodice shape, fashionable at the time. The new bodice was likely paired with a matching skirt, which unfortunately did not survive.
