This is a place for any extant garments in private collections from about 1941 back. There is no beginning date. The only rule is that it can't be currently in a museum and must be before the bombing of Pearl Harbor. I mostly post items I've seen on ebay, etsy, or other auction sites so we will continue to have a record of them for research purposes. If you have antique clothing in your collection, please, email me pictures of them and I will gladly add them to this site.

Edwardian Nightgown
From the seller:
This lovely Victorian - Edwardian nightgown is made from a blush peach silk crepe. It has a wide Irish Lace yoke with the original silk ribbons around the neck under the yoke and on the sleeves. The seams are hand stitched and are French seams. It measures 39 inches around the bottom of the yoke, bust is 54, hips are 72 and it's 52 inches long. Pristine condition.
Please ask any questions prior to bidding. Thank you for looking at my auctions.
From Me:
Based on the cut, I think this might be Titanic Era but it could be earlier. It's clearly Edwardian in style.
