Vintage 20s Robe Yellow Gold Satin Floral Shimmer 30s Kimono Style VFG
Get a glow-up in this 1920s to 1930s robe! It is cut like a kimono with inset sleeves. The gold satin inner layer will feel luxurious against your skin. The wide satin shawl collar follows the front opening of the robe all the way to the hem. The similarly wide satin cuffs can be folded up or left at bracelet length.

FABRIC/COLORS: The primary fabric is satin in a golden shade of yellow. The overlay fabric is light weight chiffon in an oversized floral print using shades of yellow and orange with purple against a pastel lavender background. The seams are so tightly finished that I cannot snip fabric for a fiber burn test - my best guess is rayon satin and silk organza
TAGS: No tags
CLOSURES: N/A, the robe is a wrap front. There are belt loops but no belt - a variety of sash colors would look great. One photo shows a orange cord from my closet - it is not included with purchase.
CONDITION: I found two small marks on the front satin collar/placket - wearer's right - see closeups. The upper stain has some texture to it, while the lower one is more like a faint stain.The right satin cuff has an even smaller mark. I decided against washing the robe for fear of unintended consequences, and I don't have a dry cleaner I can trust - price reflects the small flaws. No other stains, holes, no tears or other issues noted.
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.
