Vintage 1940s Dressing Gown 3 Leaf Clover Pattern Sz M

$145.00

Brand Poppy's Vintage Clothing

This is a wonderful vintage 1940s dressing gown printed with a tiny three leaf clover pattern against a black background.  This 1940s dressing gown has elbow length sleeves with a small puff at the shoulder seam, wide wing type lapels and closes with a matching sash belt that goes through a hole at either side.  It is cut with a full skirt so that it falls in drapes.  There is a patch pocket applied to the left side. 

 Age: probably 1940s, but possibly late 30s

Fabric: Unsure, but I think that it is a natural rayon. It has a slight sheen and stemmed beautifully.

Sizing: Size 44 is indicated, and although this 1940s dressing gown should fit a medium size, please rely on the following measurements for fit:

Shoulders: 13 1/2” across seam-to-seam, but one’s shoulder cap would fit into the puff of the top sleeve

Sleeves: 11 1/2” from the seam

Sleeve inseam:  6”

Bust: 38” around

Waist: 30”

Hips: 44”, meant to fall loosely

Overall length: 43” measured flat at the back from the neck seam

Condition: This 1940s dressing gown is in excellent condition with the exception of a threaded area at the middle left of the skirt of the dressing gown - I think that the original owner may have sewn a snap there, but the snap is now gone.  Otherwise, no other wear, tear, soiling, staining or odour - this 1940s dressing gown looks like it saw little use and was well stored over the years.

This is a very nice 1940s dressing gown - understated, but lovely and probably lucky with all of the three leaf clovers!
