One thing I anticipate about Downton Abbey’s third series? The lovely 1920s lingerie.
Corsets haven’t been entirely banished, but gone are the layers of Edwardian undergarments and in with the step-in, or envelope chemise, the brassiere and bralette, tap pants, knickers, teddies, and camisoles.
In response, I’ve put together an Etsy treasury of 1920s lingerie that will inspire and delight!
