delizioso bustier stile lingerie realizzato in seta shantung color tiglio tutto *ricamato a bordo di cm 33* a disegno ramage di piccoli fiori rosso e rubino.
I understand it as the 33 cm edge is embroidered with flowers etc., but 33 cm seem too much for a "bustier". Am I misunderstanding it? Thanks.

embroidered edging
I think 33cm is from the top to the bottom, also known as "guepiere". Only the border is emboidered. The sentence is poorly written.
