Beautiful antique French linen nightdress dating to the early 1900s, hand dyed a rich milk chocolate brown. This piece has a wonderfully simple silhouette and beautiful antique details that make it easy to wear as either a dress or an original nightdress.
Features:
Genuine antique French linen
Rich milk chocolate brown color
Wide scalloped neckline with interior drawstring
Scalloped cap sleeves
Hand embroidered "CL" initials
Side darts for subtle shaping
Relaxed A-line silhouette
Heavy, beautifully textured linen
Condition: Very good antique condition with expected character consistent with age. No major flaws noted.
Measurements (laid flat):
• Chest: 46"
• Length: 41"
I purchased this from the highly regarded vintage shop AntheasAtticLondon. Unfortunately, the proportions weren't quite right for me, so I'd love for it to find someone who will enjoy wearing it.
Please compare the measurements with a similar garment you own, as antique sizing differs from modern sizing.
