You do not see these stunning vintage southern belle bridal trousseau peignoir and gown sets much any more and especially one lavished with so white lace. This set is by Vanity Fair who was known for their beautiful peignoirs and gowns and was a wonderful manufacturer of fine lingerie.
The peignoir has a wide scalloped lace yolk with 3 miniature pearlized buttons for decoration. There are 2 hooks and eyes under those for easy closure. The nylon in the peignoir is semi-sheer and silky smooth.
Double nylon big puffy baby doll sleeves with elastic at the ends to keep them puffy. There are pleats on the bodice under the lace yolk to give the peignoir fullness. The lace yolk continues around to the back with more pleats under that.
The nightgown has the most exquisite lace on the bodice which is lined with a sheer nylon lining. Wide lace straps which travel around to the back to form the lace yolk. There are very large horizontal lace appliques under the bust and another at the waist with silky smooth nylon in between. Pleats under that to give the gown fullness. Very long double ties at the sides to tie either in the front or back and ensure a good fit. Beautiful double nylon tulle hemline.
Just a gorgeous vintage Southern Belle peignoir and nightgown set from Vanity Fair fit for a bride or special occasion.

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. We hope you enjoy what you purchased but we know sometimes things do not fit quite as you would like or the color is wrong. In that case, we do allow one exchange or a store credit on any item that you want. There are about 2,000 items in the store and more are being added all the time so you have a large selection to choose from.
You must email before returning an item so I can give you the information that you need to exchange the item.
International customer have 14 days to contact Midnight Glamour about returning an item if they should want to. International customers may have to pay be additional customs and import taxes and there maybe unforeseen customs delays. The seller is not responsible for these delays nor for the custom charges as that is the international customer's obligation when purchasing an item outside your country.
