Vintage Mens Dressing Gown Woven Satin Robe with Hearts - Size M

This is a wonderful vintage men’s dressing gown or lounging robe made in a woven satin fabric from the 1960s.   The pattern consists of small hearts in a shiny red color against a black background.  The robe has a shawl collar and cuffs made in a magenta color and the pockets are also trimmed in magenta satin.  It has a red, black and white rope-type belt with tassels. It has a breast pocket and an applied patch pocket at either side and the lapels, cuffs and pockets are trimmed in red, black and white roping.  The fabric is most likely a woven rayon.  .

Label: Brocar with Arabic script.  I can’t read Arabic, but I think that this is of Egyptian origin.

Sizing: Size 46 is indicated, but this is a foreign sizing - it should fit a medium size (38-40), depending on how loose that you like your robe to be.  In any case, please rely on the following measurements for fit:

Shoulders: 19” across seam-to-seam

Sleeves: 24 1/4” long

Sleeve Inseam: 19” long

Chest: 42” around, approximate, depending on overlap

Waist: 42”, but meant to be cinched with sash belt

Overall length: 50”, measured flat

Condition:  Very good - there is a slight bit of soiling to the back neck, but otherwise, this robe is very clean and looks to have seen little use.  Last photo shows the light marking on the collar.  I have not had the robe dry cleaned. 

This is a wonderful dressing gown – fabulous heart pattern, very rich looking, great for Valentine’s Day, or just if you’re feeling amorous!
