Antique early 1900s French opera costume tunic. Lovely addition pink wool with a linen lining. Buttons up the front and fastens with metal hook and eyes on the cuffs. This has two different costumier stamps: an earlier one for L.Roize Fils, Paris and then Aristide Boyer in Marseille. So it’s been used for two opera houses. The only reference I can find online for Roize Fils is for costume made in the late 19th century.
Measures: 18” underarm to underarm, 14 1/4” shoulders, 16 1/2” across the waist, 24” sleeves, 32” long from shoulder to hem.
Condition: freshly laundered and steamed. This has signs of moth damage with holes and some darned repairs. A seam at the back of the waist needs stitching back into place.
please inspect the photos and ask any questions you have.
