30s Dressing Gown in Raspberry Silk

1930s silk dressing gown.

• Substantial fabric allows it to easily double as an evening dress.
• The color is a rich, deep raspberry.
• The bodice, upper back, slightly puffed sleeves, cuffs, and matching belt all feature ornate quilted detailing that resembles trapunto.
• Bodice closes with snap at neck, then a row of (surprisingly easy-to-maneuver) covered buttons and loops.
• Skirt secures with interior and exterior snaps.
• Cut on the bias to skim and flatter the body, the skirt has one godet insert.
• Slight train.
• Wear this luxurious piece of clothing and feel like a Hollywood starlet.

From the (living) estate of our fun and stylish friend Barbara H. (age 77). Belonged to her grandmother.
