VINTAGE JONQUIL BY DIANE SAMANDI NEIMAN MARCUS VELOUR ROBE – CHARCOAL & SUGAR PLUM OLD HOLLYWOOD GLAMOUR DRESSING GOWN

One of my most treasured robes — a Vintage Old Hollywood Glamour Jonquil by Diane Samandi for Neiman Marcus Velour Robe, dating to the 1980s. Jonquil pieces were sold only in the finest stores — Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman, Nordstrom — and are known for their exquisite imported trims, couture‑level laces, and luxurious fabrics.

This rare velour robe is a collector‑level piece. The Neiman Marcus label matches the
1980 Vintage Fashion Guild reference, confirming the era.

The color is a stunning Charcoal velour with Sugar Plum satin trim, an elegant and unusual combination. The velour is creamy, fluid, and glamorous — warm, soft, and draping beautifully. The bodice features triple pleating from shoulder to bust for fullness and shape. Inside ties and facings are done in matching plum satin, as is the attached waist tie.

The cuffs are extraordinary: a charcoal‑and‑plum paisley design with silvery highlights, finished with plum piping. Every detail reflects the high‑end craftsmanship Jonquil is known for.

This robe is so beautiful and unique that I’m in no hurry to part with it — pieces like this simply don’t appear anymore. It embodies the elegance and drama of Old Hollywood in a way only Neiman Marcus nightwear can.

A glamorous, rare, and luxurious dressing gown for the serious vintage collector.

Care Instructions

We examine each item carefully and note any imperfections, but unless an item is said to be new, please don't expect it to be perfect & even some new items have small imperfections. I will always state in the description if there are any imperfections & I never do repairs but leave them to others who are better able to do them than me as that is not my expertise.

Please remember that unless specified all items have been used and will show varying signs of use or wear. We always list the obvious imperfections to the best of our abilities. However, some slight imperfections that will not show or affect wearing or using the item may slip by or not be considered worth mentioning.

Vintage nightgowns & peignoirs may be delicate so I do not wash them in the machine. I wash them in lukewarm water with Woolite or some other mild soap, then rinse & hang dripping wet in the shower.

Since these are vintage items, a bit of extra care needs to be taken with them so they remain beautiful & I definitely would never put a vintage nightgown or a peignoir in the dryer as it would ruin it.

The items are sold as we find them. We do not dry clean, launder, alter or repair vintage clothing and they should be cleaned or washed upon arrival. Please make your selection carefully & check the measurements. We hope you enjoy what you purchased but we know sometimes things do not fit quite as you would like or the color is wrong.  In that case, we do allow one exchange or a store credit on any item that you want. There are about 2,000 items in the store and more are being added all the time so you have a large selection to choose from.

You must email before returning an item so I can give you the information that you need to exchange the item.

International customer have 14 days to contact Midnight Glamour about returning an item if they should want to.  International customers may have to pay be additional customs and import taxes and there maybe unforeseen customs delays. The seller is not responsible for these delays nor for the custom charges as that is the international customer's obligation when purchasing an item outside your country.
