Erès-Inspired Peach Silk Charmeuse Open Back Step-In Teddy Bodysuit– M, 1930s
About the Item
Before the days of separate bras and panties, “step-ins” or “singlettes”—precursors of the modern teddy—were the perfect undergarment beneath the sleek bias cut dresses of the 1930s. Devoid of any lace or trimming, this version reminds us of the minimalist designs of Erès and even features their alluring backless cut, perfect for wearing to bed or beneath slim-fitting dresses.

Blush Edwardian *Larger Size* Padded Canton Silk Embroidered Robe - O/S, 1900s
Located in Tucson, AZ
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.
Collarless drop shoulder robe embroidered with tonal chrysanthemums; wide bracelet length sleeves and hip-high slits both sides. 5 frog closures with brass buttons from throat to waist; fully lined in matching whisper weight crêpe de Chine.

Reversible Ivory Faux Fur Robe w Leonard Paris-Inspired Jungle Lining - M, 1960s
Located in Tucson, AZ
"Wooly Bully" indeed! Words can hardly describe this incredible piece of mid-century fashion: a robe so unique and cozy you'll want to wear it outside the boudoir, thanks to its outrageous Leonard-inspired jungle print lining. And though it probably wasn't meant to be worn inside-out (as the interior has neither pockets nor belt loops) it can easily be reversed so the plush side is in and the jungle print is on display for the world to see.
