By: Eye Ful by “The Flaums“ - Saks Fifth Avenue Measurements:
Peignoir

Length: 46
Nightgown
Size: Large but will fit a small & medium as well but go by the measurements for a good fit
Bust: 42 - 46 stretched tight
Length: 43-3/4
Fabric: Double Nylon
Condition: Very good - 1 end of the satin ribbon strap on the gown needs a couple of stitches to secure - easy fix

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 that the item is new, all items have been used and will show varying signs of use/wear. I may miss a small imperfection but we always list the obvious ones 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.
