VINTAGE TEXSHEEN LACE PEIGNOIR AND NIGHTGOWN SET IN A SHADE OF AUTUMN LEAVES PEIGNOIR SET

A lovely vintage peignoir and nightgown lace set by Texsheen in a shade called Autumn Leaves.

The color is luscious and the fabric is silky smooth slippery nylon. There is matching floral lace on the bodice and miniature lace on the ends of the sleeves. Self piping around the neckline and bodice which ends in ties to tie the peignoir. Thin elastic around the waistline for a good fit. Gathers under the lace for fullness. One pocket in the side seam.

The matching nightgown is just as lovely with the same floral lace on the bodice of the modified empire-style nightgown. Self piping on the gown around the neck and down the bodice which ends in long ties which can either be tied in front or around the back. Double loop straps for interest. There are gathers under the empire waist which gives fullness to the bodice and elastic around the front and the back.

A very rich, jewel-tone color in the Autumn Leaves shade which will be perfect for the Fall and winter season!

Approximate Measurements – This means the measurements of the item listed – not of your own figure. You must be a few inches smaller than the measurements shown.

Peignoir:
Size: Small but go by the measurements
Bust all the way around: 35 - 36
Shoulder to shoulder: Cannot measure because of the way the sleeves have been designed
Sleeve from neck: 21-1/2
Length: 55
Condition: Very good with the exception of 2 pin prick hole on the skirt in back. Nearly missed them because they are so small.
Nightgown
Size: Small & may fit a size medium as well but go by the measurements
Bust: 32 - 34 depending on how the ties are tied below
Under the bust where the ties are: 24 - 32 and can be pulled tighter to make smaller or looser if one needs more room
Length: 53 - 54
Fabric: 100% Nylon
Care: Washable
Condition: Very good with the exception of a 1/8" hole 13" up from the hemline and 2 tiny pinhead holes above that and 1 in the back It will take a couple of stitches to pull them closed - easy fix. I nearly missed them because of the color and they are small and some small spots that blended in closer to the hemline. Did not see until I held it up to the light and no one else will either.  However, I took it into another room and did not see them so I guess it will depending on the lighting conditions and you certainly will not see them at night.

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 as there is no return on clothing or other items.
