1920s Pongee Silk Wrap Beach Pajamas [xs/sm/med]
$698.00
Rare and unusual 1920s raw pongee silk beach pajama jumpsuit with incredibly vibrant colorful print detailing throughout. A classic design of early loungewear with a built in wrap tie bodice that creates a super comfortable and simultaneously flattering fit on a wide range of body shapes and sizes. Super wide legs drape and move beautifully with the wearer. Two sweet patch pockets at the hip complete the harmony of the design. The silk is a perfect weight, light enough for the warmer months but opaque, making it very easy to wear. The quintessential pair of beach pajamas, you'll never need another!
Overall excellent condition with minor cosmetic notes. This pair is very likely unworn and deadstock, but has been cleaned in house. When found it had many black/grey small storage stains throughout- almost all of these marks have lifted with cleaning, only a few subtle lightened bits remain throughout. There appears to be some minor printing errors in the form of small specks of color in the pattern, mostly on the bodice as well as some extremely subtle spots of color bleed on the leg, at the hem, and at one shoulder. Otherwise there are a few pinholes, 2-3 in the volume of the legs, and two at one underarm, likely where a price tag was attached at some point (we have added a few stitched here for extra stability and longevity as this can be a high stress area on the garment). Structurally near perfect condition, all notes are purely cosmetic and not particularly noticeable when worn. While this list may seem long, we are being very picky and this jumpsuit presents incredibly beautifully overall, but has been priced accordingly.
