A doll's blue fabric corset in two parts. Each half consists of five panels, these are decorated with cream coloured lattice stitching. There is dirty lace trim on the top edge and dirty tape trim at the bottom edge. Two brass studs and two brass eyes connect the front edges. There are seven pairs of brass eyelets to connect the back edges by means of laces (which are not present). There are metal strips which act as stiffeners to the front edges.
