The front of the bodice. The main body is a vintage silk satin from Hong Kong. The "wrinkled" stuff on either side of the middle is crinkle silk organza that I attempted to iron out. The pearly fabric in the center is from what was probably an early teens (as in 1910's) dress. I still have the inner bodice and this piece of fabric and that's it. I figured the fabric could go to good use. The trim is gold bullion from a sari -most likely antique itself.
