1930s-1940s Nightgown - Sheer Bone White Silk Crepe with Bobbin Lace & Satin Detail | XS, Small

This vintage 1930s to 1940s nightgown was made from a sheer bone white silk crepe material that is as light as air. Bias cut with darling ruffled cotton bobbin lace edging around the neckline and faux 'dropped' waist. This gorgeous gown is nicely detailed with white satin piping and back straps, which gives a nice contrast to the matte crepe. A wide fluttery skirt that falls above the ankle offers a sweet fairy like allure. A very precious gown.
