Channel your inner Bettie Page with this vintage inky black satin brassiere. At a time when most shaping bras featured endless circle stitches to create lift, Lucille of Hollywood created this silky-smooth Wisp-O-Youth satin wonder. Designed with a smooth, wide band that encircles each cup and a hidden inner underbust support panel, this bra was designed with seduction in mind.
Wisp-O-Youth was Lucille of Hollywood's most iconic product line. It was marketed explicitly as lingerie that helped women achieve a youthful, smooth appearance through carefully crafted undergarments such as bras, girdles, slips, and camisoles. The garments were designed to flatter and enhance the body's natural shape.
Lucille of Hollywood's lingerie was made from high-quality materials such as satin, nylon, and lace. The brand was known for creating garments that were not only beautiful but also functional—designed to provide support while maintaining a soft, feminine look. The materials used were chosen for their luxurious feel and ability to shape and smooth the body.
