Description
This ivory rayon satin bias-cut nightgown from the 1940s is trimmed with wide bands of darker ivory lace. Two bands trim the front of the bodice and form the shoulder straps, two more create the sexy, off-the-shoulder ruffles and another band of lace trims the hem. More sheer lace is inset at the v-shaped waist panel on the front of the nightgown. The v-neckline is trimmed with two sets of tiny satin rosettes. The plunging back neckline is created where the two back panels diagonally overlap. A narrow sash cinches the back of the waist. The nightgown is in near excellent condition, with one very tiny, faint mark on the front, which is not visible even in our close-up photo. This would be a lovely piece of lingerie for a bride, or for any lady who likes to lounge around the house feeling elegant!
