Description

Back view of an Avro front lacing corset with "NuBack" panel of 1935. The elasticated sections prevented the corset from riding up in wear, and it became a very popular design.

This Avro front lacing corset in tea rose pink features the "NuBack" panel, introduced under licence from the USA in 1932.

The "NuBack" panel, made with a semi-circular shaped hem, was fitted to the back of corsets and deep girdles. The elasticated sections prevented the corset from riding up in wear. It became a very popular design and was applied to a large number of different corset styles for over forty years.
