Couldn't load pickup availability
This antique 1920s chemise was made from a pale pink silk material that is semi-sheer and light in weight. Straight cut across the chest with gorgeous ecru cotton lace appliqués that adorn the edge. This little slip is loose fitting, true to the era, with a slight curve at the waist to help accentuate the curves. A large appliqué at the center chest with long silk ribbon ties cinch the waist further, which beautifully complements the wide scalloped hem. A classic 'mini' style, offering a very flirty glimpse of skin without sacrificing modesty. An adorable little number!

A Note on Buying Vintage
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.
