1930s–40s Vintage Silk Bridal Nightgown with Lace Patches & Front Slit – Wedding or Party Dress
Slip into timeless elegance with this exquisite vintage silk nightgown from the late 1930s to early 1940s. Crafted on the bias for a beautifully fluid drape, this gown features a romantic halter neckline and open back with twisted straps, echoing the glamorous silhouettes of Hollywood’s golden age.
Delicate lace appliqués adorn the bodice and skirt, artfully placed to both enhance and preserve the original silk. A center-front slit in the skirt adds a subtle yet sultry touch, making this gown as stunning in motion as it is on display.
Originally a bridal nightgown, it now easily transforms into a unique alternative wedding dress, rehearsal dinner look, or vintage-inspired party gown. Perfect for the bride who loves timeless elegance with a hint of allure.

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.
