A vintage double nylon peignoir and nightgown set in a rare shade of Tangerine adorned with fabric roses.
There is a tag on the set but is is so faded that it cannot be read but this set was made by one of the well-known vintage manufactures of the past. It could be an Intime of California peignoir set which is what I am strongly thinking from all of the sets that I have had in the past or possibly a Rovel, Jenelle of California or Mary Barron.
The color is fabulous in a rare shade of tangerine. One rarely sees that color. The peignoir bed jacket has 2 rows of gathered ruffles with a lettuce leaf hem. So feminine in a sheer single layer of nylon.
Full ¾ sleeves with a ruffle on the end. A beautiful nylon fabric rose on the front of the bed jacket with a snap underneath for closure.
The nightgown is double nylon with a grand sweep skirt and a lettuce leaf hem to match the peignoir. 228 inches or 19 feet of swirling double nylon. Set-in gathered bodice for a fabulous looking figure. A large fabric rose accents the bodice.
Just a gorgeous vintage peignoir and nightgown set in Tangerine.

Care Instructions
We examine each item carefully and note any imperfections, but unless an item is said to be new, please don't expect it to be perfect & even some new items have small imperfections. I will always state in the description if there are any imperfections & I never do repairs but leave them to others who are better able to do them than me as that is not my expertise.
Please remember that unless specified all items have been used and will show varying signs of use or wear. We always list the obvious imperfections to the best of our abilities. However, some slight imperfections that will not show or affect wearing or using the item may slip by or not be considered worth mentioning.
Vintage nightgowns & peignoirs may be delicate so I do not wash them in the machine. I wash them in lukewarm water with Woolite or some other mild soap, then rinse & hang dripping wet in the shower.
Since these are vintage items, a bit of extra care needs to be taken with them so they remain beautiful & I definitely would never put a vintage nightgown or a peignoir in the dryer as it would ruin it.
The items are sold as we find them. We do not dry clean, launder, alter or repair vintage clothing and they should be cleaned or washed upon arrival. Please make your selection carefully & check the measurements as there is no return on clothing or other items.
