This vintage 1930s nightgown and peignoir set was completely stitched by hand, made from a rich golden taupe silk material. Bias cut, with the gown featuring a very sheer silk chiffon bodice and fluttered sleeves beautifully adorned with silk satin heart and scallop appliqués. Slim fitting with a decorative princess waist band and long flowing satin skirt. The accompanying robe features long bishop sleeves that close at the wrists with satin button cuffs. A matching silk satin shoulder with heart embroidery and a flirty Peter Pan collar. The robe is completely open, closing at the neck with little ties. Half moon puff sleeves give the darted look of the era. A truly remarkable set perfect for a bridal trousseau.
