Woman’s bodice, c1890Black satin net and silver beads, spangles trimmed with cream lace. This is the cuff of this dress Although the white lace of this cuff contrasts with the black of the sleeve the floral pattern echoes the flower decoration added to the net. The lace needs no support but the delicate net needs a backing fabric to give the strength required when wearing the fitted bodice -- source link
