Raspberry pink China silk, raspberry pink silk charmeuse.

Provenance: Lingerie is from the wardrobe of Yvette Viau, a wealthy French Parisian who had all her lingerie made by cloistered nuns. Ms. Viau died in the USA in 1975.

Condition: Perfect. 

Measurements:    B, 36"; W, 32"; H, 60"; L, 58"; Hem C, 175".

Comments: The bodice is sprinkled with appliquéd silk charmeuse stars in this luscious bias cut negligee.

Every stitch on this garment is expertly hand stitched and the lilac-pink color is wonderful.
