JUEL PARK Pair of 1960s Lace Garter Belts

One thing about dating vintage garments via labels is that it can be notoriously tedious to find an approximate date for the year range when they were made.

These two lace beauties were made by the bespoke lingerie brand Juel Park.

I used the amazing Underpinnings Museum Archives to help in dating these labels. Based on what I've found, these two are more than likely from the 1960s, but could also be from the 1950s, especially the black belt.

I do have a 1970s peignoir set by Juel Park that was made for Elizabeth Taylor in the archives which has a very similar label, but the style of these two lean a bit earlier.

Juel Park made lingerie for such Hollywood legends as Rita Hayworth, Mae West, Katharine Hepburn, Audrey Hepburn, Marlene Dietrich, Lucille Ball, and more!

The intricate embroidery and lacework are true hallmarks of how Juel Park made lingerie luxurious.
