I have a fascination for the insides of vintage clothes. Strange but true. Usually you find that the inside is as gorgeous as the outside. These items I found on ebay are no exception.
This French seller has some of the most amazing stuff - take a look.

I think its the juxtaposition of the fine silks or brocades with the humble linen, rough cottons...or the almost architectural characteristics of the strong lines of stays...and of course the "fait main" stitches. The details (the stories they could tell!) are incredible. I thought I was quirky for liking the insides so much...glad to see I'm not alone!
I soo agree about the beauty and meticulous attention to detail, mostly done, astoundingly, by hand!!
Thank you soo much for the wonderful link! :)
There used to be so much attention to detail! Like you, I appreciate couture so much! Thank you for the link~
