This vintage 1940s nightgown by Charna Lea was made from a silky, very stretchy baby pink rayon knit material with satin damask stripes that offers texture and flair. Bias cut with short fluttery sleeves, and a very deep cut neckline that is pinched closed with a little satin bow. This gorgeous gown fits loose and 'slouchy' at the bodice with a fitted hip and very long skirt pools at the feet that creates an absolutely stunning silhouette. An absolutely lovely and incredibly comfortable gown.
