This beautiful housecoat was made in the 1940's in France.
Made from textured cotton in a bold floral print it has some charming details including pleated sleeves which have finely gathered sleeve heads, a neat belt and darts to cinch in the waist.
Although originally designed to be worn at home, with the careful placement of some poppers this would make a fabulous maxi dress which would be perfect for summer.
