A lovely pair of lounging pyjamas from the 30's. They are made from salmon-pink brushed art silk. This fabric was an early synthetic (rayon) and the "art" is short for "artificial". The fabric is quite heavy and has a beautiful drape Garments made from this fabric are hard to find now. Sweet styling, kind of half masculine/half feminine, with a half collar (at the front only), sleeves that are pleated at the top where they join the yoke,and a 1 1/2 cm ( 3/4 inch) sash that ties at the back to nip the waist in. The wide legged pants are pleated onto a 2 c1/2m (1 inch) waist band, there is a slit at the top of the side seam, so you can get them on, and they tie at the side. The bust measures 102 cm (40 inches), the sleeve seam is 49 cm (19 inches), armpit to wrist, the waist is 69 cm (27 inches) , the leg length is 108 cm (42 1/2 inches) from waist to hem, the pants hem is 66 cm (26 inches) around. The pants are flawless, but have been worn, the top has a small amount of pilling just above the yoke at the left front, this is in the same area as a small, faint 1/2 cm ( 1/4 inch) stain, it looks to be a stone fruit stain and I haven't been able to remove it. Also the sash has begun to pull out of the side seam on the right hand side, this is one stitch-width. There are some irregularities in the weave of the fabric, which I think is consistent with the era in which it was manufactured. There is no manufacturer's label, only a small label stating the size sewn into one of the shoulder seams.
