Description
1950’S Silk Satin Bias-Cut Negligee in a champagne colored Satin Duchene with Beautiful Chantilly Lace Details.. There are fine adjustable spaghetti straps that can be tailored to fit you perfectly. The length is below the knee. .. Think Elizabeth Taylor in “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof”.. very sexy..
This negligee has striking lacework running along the bustline.. down to the hemline in an artful display of a fine detailed craft. It is an exceptional piece of vintage lingerie… exquisite in every detail.
This silk satin is cut on the bias, which is very sexy and flattering.
The size of negligee actually fits the mannequin quite well.. & would fit if you are a bit larger. The mannequin’s measurements are 34 x 27 x 36.
Keep in mind that bias-cut does stretch somewhat and drapes to your body.. it will fit well if you are a bit smaller or larger.. within reason.
This garment is in EXCELLENT VINTAGE CONDITION… with only minor imperfections
There is a label on this garment that reads:
