Vintage 1940s Bridal Silk Nightgown / Trousseau Gown / Honeymoon Negligee-40B5

Wear the rare. Choose quality. Live with history. Welcome to Lulu Boop Vintage — where carefully sourced vintage and antique garments are preserved, reimagined, and offered a second life. Each piece is unique, carrying the quiet beauty of its past and waiting to be worn again with intention. A breathtaking vintage bridal nightgown dating to the late 1930s–1940s, crafted in luminous ivory silk with an exquisitely detailed cotton lace yoke. Designed for a bride’s trousseau, this romantic gown features a deep V-point lace bodice front and back, wide lace-trimmed straps, a softly flowing bias-cut skirt, and an adjustable self-tie sash at the waist. The fabric drapes beautifully against the body, creating an ethereal silhouette once reserved for honeymoons and special occasions. An exceptional heirloom-quality piece, equally stunning as luxury sleepwear, a bridal getting-ready gown, or styled as a modern bohemian dress.Wear it in winter with cashmere cardigan + boots Measurements All measurements are taken flat (in inches).
