VPOD: Boudoir Glamour
There comes a time in every woman's life when she sheds her bedtime habit of an oversized t-shirt or teeny tank-and-short set for something a bit more glamorous, a bit more sexy, a bit more...grown-up.
And I'm not talking Victoria's Secret here. I'm talking about lingerie that could hold its own in a romantic 1930s black-and-white film. Lingerie that requires a pair of bedroom slippers with a slight heel and rhinestone, feather or fur trim. Lingerie like today's VPOD by Georgette Trabolsi.
This ultra-feminine vintage set is the softest shade of apricot with sheer rose petal adornments. It's just perfect for a honeymoon in Venice, an anniversary celebration at that little bed-and-breakfast in wine country or a memorable candlelit evening at home.
It's a fabulous way to add some boudoir glamour to the life of a vintage fashionista!
Available at Midnight Glamour.

We examine each item carefully and note any imperfections, but unless an item is said to be NEW, please don't expect it to be perfect & even some new items have small imperfections. Please remember that unless specified all items have been used and will show varying signs of use/wear. We always list the obvious imperfections to the best of our abilities. However, some slight imperfections that will not show or affect wearing/using the item may slip by or not be considered worth mentioning.
Vintage nightgowns & peignoirs may be delicate so I do not wash them in the machine. I wash them in lukewarm water with Woolite or some other mild soap, rinse & hang dripping wet in the shower.
Since these are vintage items, a bit of extra care needs to be taken with them so they remain beautiful & I DEFINITELY would never put a vintage nightgown or a peignoir in the dryer as it would ruin it.
The items are sold as we find them. We do not dry clean, launder, alter or repair vintage clothing and they should be cleaned or washed upon arrival. Please make your selection carefully & check the measurements as there is no return on clothing or other items.
