Fabulous Vintage Silk Gown

Hand Embroidered

Item Number C20806

Gorgeous hand embroidery and detailed styling on this vintage gown takes me back to my childhood when boxes of "cast offs" from my much elder and beautifully attired cousin delighted my youthful "textile senses".  This piece hales from a sophisticated estate of a half dozen Far East silk embroidered gowns and slips.  Each is different and all will inspire you to a Joan Crawford moment or two if you are lucky enough to own one. 

My 19th century Victorian dress form has never looked so good...Hand embroidered details adorn the yoke of this beautiful vintage silk dressing gown.  The shirred front and back panels remain sensuously open from top to bottom and are finished with fine hand embroidered scallops.  The belt is removable -- it is beautiful either way.  The cherry blossom "damask" pattern in the silk is delicate and ever-so feminine.  The front closes with two knot buttons.  Entirely hand made...for your finest hour(s)...Offered as found in excellent, clean condition.  c.1930's - 40's  34" - 36" bust   31" waist   36" - 39" hips  (cut on bias)  56" long  (approximate contemporary size 6)
