Shadowline
Sz S/m Nylon Robe Lace Yoke Below Knee Length, Long Sleeves, Front Buttons, Blush Pale Pink, Fits To 47 Inch Bust, Vtg by Shadowline$26.25
Feel pampered, comfortable and pretty too in this pale blush pink nylon vintage size Small robe, designed by Shadowline. It features a feminine floral tiny rose embroidered lace yoke, lace-edge sleeves and hem and there are six front buttons, the top of which is a darker pink to coordinate with the trim. This is one of their most recognizable traditional styles, which they featured in robes, nightgowns and bed jackets. In a variety of colors that changed with the seasons, it remained a best seller for many years.
The tag identifies it as a size Small, however please refer to the exact measurements to determine if this will fit you as sizing has changed over the years:
Bust ~~~ up to 47 and 1/2 inches
Shoulder to shoulder ~~~ 18 and 1/2 inches
Sleeves ~~~ 24 inches
Waist ~~~ 52 inches
Arm hole opening in robe ~~~ 19 and 1/2 inches around
Full Length of robe ~~~ 53 and 1/2 inches
Complete width at the bottom of the robe ~~~ 64 inches
As can be seen in the photos, the sleeves are full length and the robe will be well below the knee on most women.
In the detailed photo I show a close up of the lace, the rose pattern and the label.
Fabric content is shown on the fabric tag as All Nylon.
The fabric label reads "Shadowline All Nylon, Small, Machine Wash Separately Tumble".
This is a lovely nylon, with a rich feel in the hand and a more opaque look.
Shadowline was a lingerie company, located in Morganton, North Carolina. It was founded in 1946 by Sherrod Salsbury, Jr. The company had the reputation of producing lingerie of very high quality.
This classic Shadowline robe is in Very Good Vintage condition.
I do not find any snags in the nylon, all the seams are intact and there are no stains, snags or holes.
Freshly laundered, it comes from a pet-free, smoke-free home.
