TRUE VINTAGE ’60’S / ’70’S BABY-DOLL SHORTY NIGHTGOWN FOR HOT SUMMER NIGHTS

TRUE VINTAGE '60'S / '70'S BABY-DOLL SHORTY NIGHTGOWN FOR HOT SUMMER NIGHTS

Very much of the first micro-mini period in the late ’60’s and early ’70’s, this little nightgown style was very common. Cool and easy for hot weather – and we’re already starting to get some!

Made of substantial vintage nylon, it has no tag. Possibly it was custom-sewn. I find more custom-made lingerie from this time and after than from years before.

Also, the styles get less fussy during this period – excepting for the flower-child fashions with lots of ruffles and lace, it was a sportier time.

So, say an early “hello” to Summer!

FABULOUS FINDS FROM THE FORTIES – TRUE VINTAGE DRESSING GOWNS

FABULOUS FINDS FROM THE FORTIES - TRUE VINTAGE DRESSING GOWNS

Wonderful dressing gowns from the 1940’s, or maybe even the 1930’s. These are made of rayon with great classic style.

The peachy pink one allows you to sweep into the room with a grand entrance. It has padded shoulders and a little bit of an elongated hem in back – an actual “train”!  The flowered one is a little more a’la Blanche Dubois. (A Streetcar Named Desire (play by Tennessee Williams, set in New Orleans – watch it; great movie starring Vivien Leigh and Marlon Brando; a classic).  Flowered and sweet – very feminine and demure.

Gowns like these are more or less a morning version of the men’s smoking robe. Perfect to wear while enjoying your first cafe’ au lait of the day. . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ..
