One-of-a-Kind 1940s Hand-Dyed Satin Nightgown | Coral & Crimson Elegance
This 1940s satin nightgown is pure vintage romance with a bold twist. Hand-dyed in vibrant coral, the color melts into a deeper, almost fiery hue toward the hem—an intentional artistic choice that gives it a dramatic ombré effect. The results of the hand dyeing are naturally uneven, which adds charm and ensures that no one else will ever have the same piece.
The bodice is pure magic: heart-shaped panels with floral embroidery are framed by deep crimson lace that traces the bust and double shoulder straps. The contrast between the soft coral and bold red makes this a true standout.
Details:
- 1940s vintage satin
- Hand-dyed coral with deeper tones at the hem
- Lace trim in rich red
- Embroidered floral detail on the bust
- One-of-a-kind
Wear It Your Way:
- Day Look: Layer with a chunky knit cardigan and combat boots for a mix of softness and edge. A wide-brim hat and layered necklaces will complete a killer vintage-modern outfit.
- Evening Glam: Add strappy heels, a velvet robe or kimono, and bold gold jewelry for an unforgettable hosting look—or simply to feel amazing while sipping wine on the couch.
This gown is a wearable piece of art—made for collectors, romantics, and anyone who wants to stand out.

PLEASE CHECK MEASUREMENTS BEFORE PURCHASE!
Vintage and antique clothing often differ from modern standardized sizes. Many were handmade for an individual, so sizing can vary. Instead of relying on a labeled size, compare the given measurements to a garment that fits you well. If you have any questions about fit, feel free to ask—I’m happy to help!
Condition & Care
• Vintage and antique items have been previously loved, so small imperfections may exist.
• Hand-dyed pieces: Due to the nature of hand-dyeing, colors may not be perfectly even. Please wash these items delicately, preferably alone or with similar colors.
• Antique fabrics (pre-1930s): Delicate materials such as 1920s silk or Edwardian muslin require extra care. These fabrics can be fragile and should be worn loosely to prevent stress or tearing.
Shipping & International Buyers
• Ships within 1 business day.
• International buyers: Please provide a phone number for delivery purposes.
• Import taxes/duties are the buyer’s responsibility.
• All shipments are insured, and I will assist in managing claims.
