We've actually got a pair of these with identical patterns and material, but different manufacturer's tags. As companies got bought out or expanded to different lines, or what-have-you, they sold or passed along the patterns as well. Its common in vintage lingerie to find identical items from different manufacturers. And this is just one such case. We have a size small that has a Custom Maid tag, and a size medium that has a Copilot tag. Both are identical; both are in fantastic condition.These are high quality garments with old-fashioned stitching and high quality fabrics. They stand up to the test of time. These open bottom girdles have a 3/4 side zipper with ribbon tassle over lined hook and eye closure so its easy to get on and off, side satin one-way (vertically for comfort, not horizontally for chub) stretch panels to keep the hips smooth and shapely, the center diamond no-stretch lace panel, ke
eps the tummy tucked, reinforced elastic paneling in the front for extra coverage, rump smoothing diamond cut stretch panel in the back, 6 attached garters with ribbon covers for discreetness (or sex appeal - there's something especially appealing about a girdle with garters and ribbon covers), made from nylon, lace and lyrca.Both of these garments are in great condition. They appear to have been worn several times but have no visible stains, damage, wear marks, over stretched elastic or pilling. There is some discoloration due to aging (think ivory instead of white) which is almost a given with vintage items. A few scuff marks on the ribbon covers that will probably come off with delicate washing.
These tend to go pretty fast, especially with two size choices. If you're interested, you might wanna snap it up before someone else does. If you have any questions about these garments or anything else you've seen, leave me a comment! I'll try to get back to you as soon as I uncover my keyboard from the stacks of lovely vintage lingerie in my office. :D
