 50s Retro Lingerie,Petticoats & Stockings

Vintage SEAMED STOCKINGS, BULLET BRAS & PETTICOATS

Give all the right emphasis in all the right places with 1950s style lingerie, satin bullet bras, garter belts, silky seamed stockings and high quality petticoats.

Women of the 1940s & 1950s enhanced their shape with girdles, corselettes, long line bras, bullet bras and corsets.

 

Foundation wear or shape-wear as it is called today, was at its peak during the mid forties and early fifties. It was during this time that the fashionable wasp waist look was in style. In order to create the voluminous skirt look with a nipped in waist, a girdle or foundation wear was necessary. 

Check out our post about Rago foundation wear. A company that has been shaping women since the 1940s and is featured here at oldsoulretro.com

We also breakdown the best foundation garments to wear under your retro clothes here.

Don't forget the vintage style stockings. High quality seamed stockings look and feel more comfortable than any stockings you've ever worn. They stretch from top to toe to fit you perfectly and hug every part of your leg.
