Blush Edwardian *Larger Size* Padded Canton Silk Embroidered Robe - O/S, 1900s
About the Item
Though this robe’s delicate pastel hue and exquisite softness make it an ideal dressing gown, it would be such a shame to hide it behind closed doors. Cut much like a 1950s swing coat, it could easily double for lightweight outerwear or a chic tunic worn over leggings.

fabric: padded Canton silk, crêpe de Chine
