Glamorous 1950s Knickers The ultimate vintage inspired high waisted 1950s knickers? We had great fun designing these panties to ensure they comfortably fit the largest range of figure types possible. The satin tummy panel is smaller at the top which means that the powermesh will easily stretch to fit if you have a slightly larger waist in comparison to your hips, than our 1950s sisters. They’re made from the same vintage peach fabric we use for our Glamour, the 1940s and Retro ranges so you can mix and match. The powermesh is 88% polyester, 12% spandex, satin 100% polyester, gusset 100% cotton. The country of manufacture is India, where most of our lingerie is ethically made in the same factory.
