The waist measurement is minimum 59 cm (23 inches ) and maximum 81 cm (32 inches). The number 26 is on the label, so presumably this is the waist size.The maximum hip measurement is 90 cm (35 1/4 inches).The length is 66 cm (26 inches). This exquisite garment is in excellent condition, with the only flaw I can find being a couple of frayed stitches on the inside of the waist, not visible during wear.

-there are some tiny holes and pulls or picks in the mesh of the cups
-there are quite a number of tiny pulls in the nylon fabric of the skirt of the garment especially on the left side possibly where a handbag rubbed
-there a a large number of tiny picks or pulls in the mesh of the frill at the hemline.
Still a beautiful garment, I haven't seen one quite like it before. Bargain price.

vintage 30's 40' white satin rayon slip nightgown
$14.00
I'm not sure whether this is a slip or nightgown. It looks 30's or 40's to me but I can't be sure. The printed fabric label reads "Griffinette all rayon 16". The measurement at the bust under the arms is 30 inches (77 cm), the side measurement is 33 inches (85 cm).This is a special garment with lovely elegant styling. The fabric is white satin rayon. There are spaghetti straps. The tops of the cups are decorated with 1 1/4 inch bands of delustred fabric which is finely accordian pleated. There is a keyhole opening at the centre of the top of the cups, trimmed with bias binding  which extends along the tops of the cups. There is a 7 inch (18 cm) bias strip attached at the centre front which could be tied in a small bow if desired. The cups are gathered and form an inverted"v" where they attach to the main body of the garment. The skirt is bias cut, in one piece. The hemline is simply trimmed with a 2 inch (6 cm) fold of fabric. Just a couple of little faults, I hav removed a small stain from the accordian trim on the right cup, there is a tiny vestige of it remaining, barely noticeable. I also removed a stain from the main body of the garment, but there is no trace of that. The bodice has been taken in and let out again and the stitch matks remain. There is a small hole at the attachment of the bodice and the main body of the garment on the side seam, probably related to the unpicking.

vintage 60's black slip by Vanity Fair size 16
$14.00


A lovely simple black slip by Lucas Vanity Fair. Size 16, so possibly made for the Australian market. The label is woven cloth with blue embroidery. There is simple embroidered black fabric appliqued onto the hem and the top of the bodice. The straps are adjustable satin ribbon. The hardware is metal. Lovely simple styling, with the front of the bodice gathered at it's bottom edge. Inverted V seaming joining the bodice to the skirt at it's bottom edge. The measurement around under the bust is 32 inches (82 cm). The length is the side seam is 33 1/2 inches (86 cm). There is one fault with this garment ( a small one), it has been taken up, and I havetaken it back down again, so there is a fold line which will eventually come out. Any irregularites of colour in the photo are the camera not the garment.
