LIDA BADAY 🇨🇦 Vintage Bustier - Like New

Absolutely stunning & rare find. Sweetheart neckline, cropped bustier top by renowned Canadian fashion designer Lida Baday. Beautiful Copper snake print fabric, Can be tied & styled multiple ways. I purchased it in the early 2000s from a boutique consignment shop. It was probably produced in the 90s. It has only been worn once, like new condition. It's a rare find, I have not seen anything else like it since. Lida Baday's eponymous womenswear line was founded in 1987 and ran for 27 years before going out of business with the spring 2014 collection. Baday's work is described as "sleek, sculptural, modern," "sophisticated," "feminine," "minimalist," "understated quality," and "streamlined simplicity." She has been called "Canada’s equivalent to Calvin Klein." Her designs appeared on the covers and in the spreads of Canadian fashion magazines such as Flare. Celebrity clients include Oprah Winfrey, Bo Derek, Brooke Shields, Jeanne Beker, and Sigourney Weaver. Baday was twice named Toronto's Designer of the Year, in 1992 and 1996.
