1950s-1960s Nightgown - Black Nylon with Sheer Mulberry Chiffon Bodice

This vintage 1950s to early 1960s cusp nightgown was made from a silky opaque black nylon material. The bodice was made from a sheer mulberry chiffon with gorgeous silver embroidery. A flattering sweetheart neckline and sheer black panels that extend over the shoulders, darting into a point at the center back which adds a glamorous touch. Nipped at the waist with a long ankle length skirt that creates an elegant allure, hemmed in a sheer chiffon. A true stunner.
