In the 1950s, bed jackets were a common and practical garment for women, serving both comfort and modesty in the home. Here’s how women typically used them:
1. **Comfort and Warmth**: Bed jackets provided an extra layer of warmth while lounging in bed or around the house, especially in the mornings or evenings when it might be cooler. They were shorter and lighter than robes, making them easy to wear while sitting up in bed.
2. **Nursing and Convalescence**: Women often wore bed jackets while nursing infants or during periods of convalescence. The jacket provided ease of movement and access, which was especially useful for new mothers or those recovering from illness.
3. **Modesty**: Bed jackets allowed women to maintain modesty while receiving guests or family members in their bedrooms. They could cover their shoulders and upper body without the bulk of a full robe.
4. **Style and Elegance**: Bed jackets were often beautifully designed with satin, lace, and other luxurious fabrics, adding a touch of glamour and femininity to home wear. They reflected the fashion trends of the era, emphasizing elegance even in casual, home settings.
5. **Practicality**: These garments were easy to slip on and off, making them convenient for quick warmth and coverage. Their shorter length compared to full robes made them more manageable and less cumbersome for bed-bound activities.
Overall, bed jackets combined practicality with style, fitting seamlessly into the lifestyle and fashion sensibilities of 1950s women.

PLEASE CHECK MEASUREMENTS BEFORE PURCHASE! Antique hand made items where handmade and differ to standard sizes. Please check the measurements closely for determining fit. I do not give sizes for vintage items as women's sizes are not standardized and a majority of these dresses were homemade or specialty made to fit one person. Also if vintage items are size tagged they usually run smalller comparing to the actual sizes. A good method to check is to measure a similar item that fits and compare.
If you have any questions about the fit feel free to ask, I am happy to help.

Please Note :
Any accessories used in the picture are not included, there are there to show how the outfit could be worn or a decorative object. I need to be honest. I sell Vintage and Antique Clothing and I would say anything before 30s should be treated with care and worn with care. Mostly these items will be fragile especially 20s silk or Edwardian very fine Muslin. Some can not handle stress and will tear easily. Should be bought a size bigger where possible or should be a little loose on.
Things to consider when buying Edwardian or Victorian clothing:If an item is marked XS but looks loose and big! It maybe has a Medium Shoulder and Hip but the waist is Tiny! (Corsets!). It may look big and loose but the shoulders or opening of the arm will be small, or the waist.
- The sleeves may not be long to the wrist but more of a 3/4.
- Buttons also may vary in shape and size on the same blouse, these blouses are old and would have lost buttons along the way.
Happy to answer any question.
Thanks for visiting.
