1920s Hand Embroidered Lounging Pajamas, XS/S

Top is fabricated in a soft peachy colored slubbed cotton dobby

Trimmed in an ivory colored lace

Hand embroidered cotton floral bouquets

Tabard style open at sides ties with a 30s/40s french rayon ribbon (The original ribbon was missing)

Comes with original silk habotai pant

Pull on style with elastic at waist

Love the asymmetric hem with one leg with a side slit and the other a straight hem, both trimmed in the same ivory colored lace trim as the top

French seams

Maker: Unknown. Possibly home made from a embroidery kit.

Condition: Top is Very good with a small light colored spot on the front and another on the lace at the side waist and a tiny 1/8” hole on the back above hem. As stated above, the sides ties are a 30s/40s french rayon ribbon (The original ribbon was missing). The pants are in Fair/good condition. They present well for now but the silk is very fine and there are a few small scattered holes and light discoloration at the crotch. Should be patched for repeated wear. The stitching for the elastic is a bit wobbly. Freshly soaked and line dried, arrives clean and ready to wear.

Measurements: The measurements below are the actual measurements of the garment. Please allow for ease. Whenever possible the best way to insure a good fit is by comparing the measurements to that of a similar garment in your closet.
