Latest Vintage Obsession 1940s-1950s Nightgowns and Sleepwear

Lately I have been quit obsessed with nightwear of the by gone eras. I think it might be the fact that I've been home more often I keep on continually getting sick I get rid of one bug and then get the next. But oh well that's what happens when you have a weak immune system. Now back to the topic I enjoy seeing these gowns, bed jackets,and slips I just love the detail they would put into these lovely garments. Now here are some scans I got from a few of the magazines my great aunt gave me.

1949 I really like the green set and pink one to!!

1956 the babydoll nightgowns 

1953 
1934 Lingerie Styles  I love the back of that gown!!


What do you think?? Would you wear any??

Designers from Before- Hattie Carnegie

Hi. Everyone!! So there are so many fashion designers 
from the past eras so today I wanted to talk about one
 Hattie Carnegie. She was well known for
 elegant couture collection and secondary ready-to-wear lines. Her company was revolutionary in the sense that it was one of the first to introduce ready-to-wear to the high-end market.
Here are some of my favorites from her collections.


The hat was made by her.
