Presenting: The infamous 1950s bullet bra in an unconventional coral shade, for the those who want a vibrant option for their bombshell aesthetic.
-Dates from the 1950s to very early 1960s.
-Made by Warner’s, one of the major lingerie brands of the 20th century.
-Most important feature that must be present in order to be considered a “true bullet bra” is the use of either spiral or circular stitching on unmolded and unpadded cups.
-Stitching is what not only gives & maintains the legendary conical shape, it’s also what gives the bra it’s strength, allowing it to efficiently lift and push out the breast without the use of underwires.
Key Design Elements/Features:
-Conical/paraboloid shape of the cups.
-Concentric circular stitching on cups.
- Non-stretchy mesh fabric lines the inside of each cup.
-Tall and wide center gore between the cups, connects to the cradle in the front of the bra.
-Straps are thin and adjustable in length.
-On one side In the back, 4 eye closures in total, arranged in two rows of two.
-On other side, one set of two hooks.
-Abnormal color, which is a medium-dark, bright coral/orange shade.
-Bra was not manufactured in this color originally.
-Was dyed qat some point after it was purchased in the 50s, likely somewhat recently.
-Visually evident that this was an at home DIY bra dying project, yet mostly well done.
-Coral shade is absolutely gorgeous, and the shade is consistent and even throughout the entire piece.
-Extremely unique and compelling piece.
Condition Rating: VERY GOOD
-Few color related defects.
-Small sliver of fabric on both the elastic band and label/tag, was missed during the dying process, leaving a strip of the original white color behind.
-Only visible when one actually pulls the tag to expose that area.

-Overall, All defects are minimal.
-Little to no stretch loss in both the elastic band in the back and the two elastic gores on each the side wings.
