This 1940s peignoir set by Lady Duff is beautifully romantic with ethereal detail. The peignoir is made entirely of sheer rayon chiffon, with long and wide bishop sleeves gathered at the shoulder and cinched at the wrist with wide lace snap closure cuffs. Shoulder pads offer the classic darted look, with gorgeous texture provided by many folds of chiffon in the bias cut bodice. A fitted waist made of lace with eye-hook closure, and a wide open skirt allowing the nightgown to show through. The nightgown is made of silky rayon satin in a slightly richer shade of ivory, and features a stunning chiffon bust with pintuck stitching which is framed in exquisite floral cotton lace. With double straps and a very deep cut back, and sewn in ties at the sides to cinch the waist. A long, smooth skirt with gathered folds at the hips, completely flattering the form. A perfect selection for a new bride!
CONDITION - Excellent: no stains or rips. There are a few light age spots on the chiffon robe that hide in the folds. The straps on the nightgown look as though they were very slightly shortened but stitches can be released. Nightgown has a few tiny pinholes at the right hip in gathered area. See photos!
