Women's John Kloss Night Gown 70s Cira Vintage Sheer Stretch Lace Medium VFG Lingerie
This vintage lace nightgown is from John Kloss, the 70s lingerie master whose work for Cira is on a par with Emilio Pucci's for Formfit! Simply styled with deeply scooped neck, cap sleeves, flaring skirt.
SIZE: Labeled M. Measured from side seam to side seam while lying flat, unstretched. The fabric has quite a bit of stretch - the gown is not pinned on Josephine.

I measure the outside of garments, unless stated otherwise.
For menswear, the chest is measured at armpit level.
For womenswear, the bust is measured a little below armpit level, including the room created by darts or gathers.
Waist will be measured if there is one, and hips are measured about 9" below waist level. Sleeves are measured from shoulder seam or an approximation in the absence of a shoulder seam. Garment length is measured from the back of the neck, unless otherwise stated.
The measurement numbers refer to the garment, not the body inside. For best fit, measure a similar type of garment which fits you well and compare.
If the garment is shown on Josephine, my mannequin, her measurements are 31/24.5/34". Sometimes she wears a padded bra. My live models measurements vary depending on the day and year, and I don't ask them to share that.
