"Dressing Gown Or Interior For The Reception In Yellow Straw Brocade Satin Circa 1940-1950"
Circa 1940-1950 China for export to Europe Beautiful dressing gown or indoor dress for reception in shiny straw yellow silk satin brocaded with a pattern of Japanese flowers and dating from the 1940s. Loose coat, crossed in front and closed by bells in matching silk trimmings. Remarkable work of machine stitching forming parallel rolls on the collar, the cuffs and the lapels of the pockets treated obliquely. Belt with passes to tie in front. Last testimony in the fashion of interior dresses for the reception as one can observe in the Hollywood cinema between the two wars. An assumed exoticism! Some rare micro dirt and scratches very difficult to detect, otherwise clean and stable silk. Good general condition of color and conservation. Dimensions: Equivalent size France 38-40. Height 137cm, shoulder 41cm, chest 94_96cm, sleeve 61cm, waist 74-84cm, hip 92-96cm.
