This antique 1920s jumpsuit and robe set is an incredibly rare collectors dream. Made in Japan from golden natural pongee silk with an elaborate print consisting of butterflies, celebratory ribbons, and flowers. The robe is a marvel on its own, with a relaxed drop shoulder, wide wrist length sleeves, and a wide ankle length body. Completely covered in the intentional print and closing at the center front with little ties. The jumpsuit features a very sexy deep V neck and wrap style waist. Loose and easy to wear while still flattering the curves, with a very loose hip and tapered wide legs that expand to a 35 inch opening. This set is an absolute dream for collectors of historical fashion.

A Note on Buying Vintage
This is an antique or early vintage garment made from delicate materials such as silk, fine cotton, lace, or early synthetics. These textiles may display signs consistent with age, which includes:
• natural fiber fatigue
• gentle thinning at stress points
• subtle irregularities inherent to early manufacturing
• age-related softness or patina
These qualities are authentic to historic garments and are considered part of their character, not defects, unless otherwise stated.
Notable flaws, such as excessive wear, stains, holes, or rips will always be photographed and disclosed in the condition notes.
