Nightgown

Designer Mrs. Sylvia Pedlar American
 Manufacturer Iris Lingerie Co., Inc.

Not on view

As with many of Pedlar's designs, this nightgown references nineteenth century fine embroidered lingerie, seen in the lace and design details. The lavish use of embroidery gives an overall highly textured feminine effect, and the lace insertions at center front add an overall appearance of luxury.
