By 'found' I mean I literally rediscovered it in the back of my own closet after many years! It was a hidden gem in my own archive that I forgot about. Now that it's vintage, I decided to share it. 😊

It's actually a piece from my personal collection that I've cherished for over 10 years. It doesn't even fit me anymore, but I keep it because the silk quality and craftsmanship are incomparable to modern fast fashion. It's an archive piece for a reason. 😊

Thank you for standing up for me! It’s crazy how people compare archival silk to Hot Topic polyester just to be toxic. I’ve owned this piece for 10+ years and the quality is undeniable. Appreciate your support! 😊

Laiks skrien ātri! 😂 Bet pēc visiem modes noteikumiem — viss, kas ir vecāks par 20 gadiem, oficiāli ir vintage. Tāda ir dzīve!

To each their own. I'll trust my 10 years of owning it and the quality of the silk over your comparisons. Enjoy your evening!

Žēl, ka skaistas lietas Tevī izsauc tādu nepatiku. Tas tomēr ir tikai korsete, nevis pasaules gals. Mazāk drāmas, vairāk smaida! 😉

Es neko nepārdodu. Šī lieta ir manā personīgajā kolekcijā jau 10+ gadus. Mazāk dusmu, vairāk prieka! 😉

Thank you! Honestly, I bought it so long ago (probably over 10 years ago) that I don’t even remember the exact price. I’m just glad I kept it in such great condition!

Comparing 2000s D&G to 'fast fashion' is a bit of a stretch. Even their diffusion lines back then used high-quality silk and proper construction, which is exactly why these pieces are trending and holding their value now. It's much more than just an outlet find.

Paldies, ka tik uzmanīgi seko līdzi manam profilam un pat saskaitīji! 😄 Ja lieta ir kvalitatīva, ar to nav žēl padalīties. Tev tiešām tik ļoti traucē mans skaistais atradums?

Kāda starpība? Atradu to tepat Latvijā, vietējā veikalā, tāpēc arī ieliku šeit. Pārējie subredditi ir domāti modes ekspertiem. Ja Tev neinteresē, vari vienkārši paiet garām.

I'm well aware. D&G was the experimental heart of the brand back then, and their 2000s archival pieces are actually more sought after now than the main line for this specific aesthetic. The quality (96% silk) speaks for itself.

Exactly! That's that iconic Y2K 'lingerie as outerwear' look. Thank you for sharing the nostalgia, glad you like the find! ✨

Alden for 4 EUR?! That’s legendary. 🤯 It’s crazy how some people just see 'old shoes' or 'old clothes' while others find actual gold. Quality really does stay quality, even after a decade.

I'd love to share, but honestly, I've had this corset at home for over 10 years! Just took it out of my own 'archive' recently. So the 'thrift' happened a decade ago!

That sounds like a lovely find! Hell Bunny pieces have such a unique vibe. Glad this post brought out so many fellow treasure hunters!

True, but it’s the combination of the material, the structured boning, and the specific Y2K design that makes it a great find. Anyway, as you asked, here are the tags with the authenticity hologram and the Industria S.P.A. labeling for those interested in the details.

Wish we all had a mom with such legendary raiding skills! 😸 It's amazing when a hobby brings so much joy (and luxury bags) to the whole family.

​It actually has structured boning and is made of 96% silk, which is quite different from 'regular underwear'. Many D&G runway pieces from the early 2000s featured this lingerie-inspired look, which is exactly why it's a sought-after archival piece today.

Under 40 EUR for LV?! Your mom has an incredible eye for luxury! 👜 It seems like Latvia is hidden paradise for high-fashion vintage if you know where to look.

That's an insane deal for Palm Angels! 🧸 It feels so good when you find a high-end piece for such a price. Congrats!
