This vintage 1940s dressing gown by Vali Fashion was made from a silky bright sky blue rayon material with a stunning tulip print in bold shades of fuchsia, green, and royal purple. Bias cut with a darling shawl collar that adds a bit of decor for the wearer. A wrap style, with attached ties that cinch at the side of the waist and an inner tie to prevent shifting. This gorgeous robe falls to the ankle, with a little side hip pocket to hold your trinkets. A perfect everyday piece that represents the era beautifully.
