The garment was cut for a 40 inch bust. Victoria sure had a nice figure in her youth. :)

I would not be surprised if the final price went way over 9,000 pounds. There seems to be a hot market for Victoria memorabilia.

Almost as round as she was tall. She was only 4’8” tall.

Good God...I have a 34 inch waist...and I’m *far* from “petite”.

The garment have been “discovered” by the family? Must not clean out their closets very often.

Wouldn’t these items actually belong to the royal family?

Her size is ok, a lot of fashion models these days seem to want to look like anorexic boys. Give me a girl with some meat on her bones (and I agree with Gus in ‘Lonesome Dove’ about rotund women).

36?
Bidj plz. I’ve seen the pictures

She was short and stout, as they used to say. A plump figure was most desirable to men of the day.

You could call them Victoria’s secret.

How would you prove this item was actually worn by the Queen?

Was she the only woman in England who wore that size clothing? No.

Are there pictures? No.

That price may be cheap for the Queen's corset, but too much for a nameless street urchin's.
