Vintage 1940's Nightgown & Bed Jacket Set | Icy Blue Silk with Pale Nude Floral Lace | Size XS

Vintage 1940s nightgown and bed jacket set made of a lightweight icy blue silk that feels like heaven against the skin. Both pieces are beautifully adorned with pale floral lace with the nightgown having a deep center slit down the chest, tying at the neck into a bow. Cap sleeved and bias cut with an embroidered monogram on the right side of the chest displaying the initials RSR. The bed jacket falls to the waist with long wide sleeves that gather at the shoulder and the wrist giving a nice drape. An open-fit with a neck tie for closure, and two fabric-covered buttons at the cuffs. An absolutely gorgeous boudoir set.
