Below we have a selection of retro Irish underwear and lingerie adverts from the 1950’s to 90’s.
All garments manufactured in Ireland, except for those in the last advert below.
It’s Ireland’s largest lingerie blog post, I understand.

National Brand, McCarter, Buncranna – RTE Guide,1963

Schiesser, Clonmel, – Geo Magazine, Germany – 1986

Some of these look funny! Though the last one surprised me. So old lingerie ads look like this, glad I didn’t live in that era.

Lingerie from the 1970s and 1980s were the best. That’s my take.
