This 1950s nightgown and robe peignoir set is typical of the high-quality, highly detailed work of pioneering lingerie designer Sylvia Pedlar.

Gown features spaghetti straps, delicate lace, silky blue drawstring at waistband. Closes at back with three tiny shell buttons.
Robe has flutter short sleeves, collar, and yoke in delicate lace above the plisse textured, loose-fitting skirt. Closes at yoke with four shell buttons and loops.
Textured nylon fabric is crisp, cool, and soft.
Color is a vanilla/candlelight white.

That light blue ribbon on creamy white makes this the perfect set to wear on a honeymoon or anniversary.
