Description
The dark red, lightweight silk of this late 1940s or early 1950s ladies' robe or dressing gown has an all-over print of blue diamonds. The robe has a classic shape with a pointed collar, a shoulder yoke, long sleeves that are very slightly flared, and a fitted waist with darts at the back of the waist for shaping. There is one large patch pocket on the right side. Inside, a narrow band attaches with a single hook and eye, in order to hold the robe closed securely. A matching printed silk sash cinches the waist. The robe appears unworn, however, there is some wear to the center back of the collar. This will not be noticeable when it is worn, and it could perhaps be stabilized with a small patch in order to avoid further damage. The robe is in very good condition, with no other issues. The lovely silk fabric is so fine and light that it almost seems to float over the body.
