Old Hollywood Style
These lounge robes were commonly worn after Gala Events over a tuxedo or other formal attire when men would get together to smoke & drink.. an Old Hollywood tradition..
This Lounge Robe is in EXCELLENT VINTAGE CONDITION. with a few minor flaws on the satin.. nothing crazy… There is a machine repair on the inside of the shawl collar by the maker’s label. This can not be seen when worn. (see last image with arrows)
There is some light fading on the inside lining by the arm openings.
These vintage fabrics in deep colors often do have this type of color fade. It must have been the fabric dies used at the time.
