Vintage 1940's Dressing Gown Robe - Sheer White Rayon Chiffon with Satin Embroidery | Medium

This vintage 1940s dressing gown robe was made from a very sheer white rayon chiffon that flows beautifully upon movement. Bias cut with padded shoulder that provide the iconic silhouette of the era. Long bishop style sleeves that close at the wrists with fabric covered buttons, with ruffled embroidered lace cuffs that add an elegant touch. This stunning robe is completely open down the center with satin embroidered panels down the bodice and chiffon ties that close the piece at the waist. A fluttery peplum 'skirt' and V'd lower back creates a decadent shape for the wearer, with a long skirt that falls just above the ankle. Absolutely gorgeous!
