This vintage MMI black nylon half slip is a well-preserved example of classic American foundation wear. Produced for everyday use, MMI slips emphasized durable construction, comfort, and simple design rather than ornate or luxury styling.
The smooth nylon fabric layers easily under skirts and dresses, while the lace hem provides subtle detail without compromising function. The elastic waistband remains in excellent, like-new condition, making this a truly wearable vintage piece.
A practical addition for vintage wardrobes, costume collections, or anyone seeking authentic mid-century underpinnings made to last.
