Vintage 1940's Dressing Gown | Sunny Yellow Cotton with Red Ditsy Floral Print | S

This vintage 1940s dressing gown was made from a cheerful 'sunshine' yellow cotton with the sweetest red ditsy floral print. A very flattering sweetheart neckline with puffed sleeves and a sleek A line skirt, which all come together to give the perfect 40s silhouette. Little handkerchief pockets and delicate white lace edging that offers a lovely contrast to the bold hues with royal blue piping that frames the brass zipper closure down the center. Wide attached ties cinch the waist and create the perfect bow in the back. This is the perfect house dress to wear on lazy summer mornings.

This is an antique or early vintage garment made from delicate materials such as silk, fine cotton, lace, or early synthetics. These textiles may display signs consistent with age, which includes:

• natural fiber fatigue
• gentle thinning at stress points
• subtle irregularities inherent to early manufacturing
• age-related softness or patina

These qualities are authentic to historic garments and are considered part of their character, not defects, unless otherwise stated.

Notable flaws, such as excessive wear, stains, holes, or rips will always be photographed and disclosed in the condition notes.
