Lingerie in Life...Magazine, that is

The vintage images in this post are from the archives of LIFE magazine, which first appeared in 1946. Enjoy this post to see how far we've come in lingerie, as documented by LIFE.

The black strapless photo (image above) was taken on July, 1946, and photo (image below) is with a strapless model during a fitting with Jack Glick.


The final photos (images one and two above) were featured in LIFE on October, 1952. There's something eternally romantic and classic about these black and white photos. Enjoy!
