Vintage late 1940s to very early 1950s nightgown made from a sheer mint green nylon that has a slight crispness to it that resembles a rayon chiffon. This very special gown was stitched by hand entirely with a contrasting gold thread that adds a decedent touch. Ivory cotton bobbin lace frames the neckline, and adds adornment with inserts at the waist and lower center of the skirt. A remarkable piece!

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.
