These items are all geared for the man that has everything. This Strada auction sight is about offering you true works of art that will be treasured throughout your entire lifetime. So make sure that you check my other auctions all this month for other great items like this.

Up for sale is an absolutely stunning hand made silk Smoking Robe from Sulka Paris. Although I offer up a number of Sulka pieces over the years these Vintage Sulka Robes are extremely rare to find and this is one of the finest that I have had the privilege to offer up for sale. Unfortunately Sulka has closed it's doors forever so these Smoking Robes will never be offered to the public again. Do not miss your chance to acquire one of these rare collectable's while you still can.
Sulka Robes and Smoking Jackets have been the choice of many celebrities over the decades including the vast majority of 1930s Movie Stars. More recently they where brought to the attention of the public by the worlds most famous bachelor Huge Hefner who literally lives in his Sulka Silk Robes, Smoking Jackets and pajamas his collection is known to be second to none. Whether you are going to spend a night at the Playboy Mansion or just want to lounge around the house in style make this work of art yours you will never have a chance to buy it again.
This particular Robe is truly of Museum quality. The fabric that Sulka chose for this robe is composed of the finest Heavy-Weight Silk Brocade that has been highlighted with Japanese landscapes and scenes in rich shades of Blue, Burgundy, Gold, Green, Orange, Silver and Yellow. Leave it to Sulka to use what appears to be real gold tread to highlight this design throughout.
Some of its fashion details include a shawl collar, and 2 exterior hip pockets. The lapels has been inset with deep blue silk, satin that runs down the entire robe on both sides. This matching blue silk has been used on the top of both pockets and on the sculptured sleeve cuffs. All of the blue silk satin has been outlined in a very unique twisted rope like piping in blue and cream. It comes with a separate double sided matching blue satin silk sash. The interior is equally beautiful being fully lined in a soft Cream colored Silk Satin. There are to many other design features to list so ( please feast your eyes on the photographs below and email me if you need any further information).
Condition: This is the opportunity of a lifetime as Sulka is now part of fashion history. Overall this rare robe is in excellent condition throughout especially for its age showing no notable wear at all.
The Vintage Sulka tag is pictured below as you can see it is one of their early ones in matching blue silk satin stating ~ A. Sulka & Company~ 661 fifth avenue New York-London-Paris-Chicago. As is common on these vintage Sulka robes there is no material tag but Sulka only used the finest Silk in the world for there Robes so you can be sure that this fabric was woven by one of the finest mills in the world and are guarantee to be made from pure silk. This is the ultimate gift for the man that has everything.
I guarantee all items to be genuine and I back this up with a full refund of 110% on all of my items including shipping both ways if it is not so. Although I have never had a return for this reason as I do know my clothing and how each designer makes and designs their garments.

About myself as a seller I have been engaged in the men's fashion business for almost 20 years at one time owning six stores through New England I now find selling the finest garments in the world at unreserved auctions as fascinating. So I have chosen to devote more of my time to my Ebay auctions I don't do men's wear as a sideline from my other job it is what I specialize in. I have helped men put together wardrobes for years and I view these high-end clothing designers as master artist painting in fabric. I will do my best to track down the finest clothing that exists to offer up at Strada auctions.

Warning!!!!!!!
Although there are many fine high end clothing sellers on Ebay. I have recently noticed a number of fake designer garments being listed mostly from out of the USA sellers with private feedback but also there are some American sellers involved. Even though I realize, some people do not mind owning counterfeit designer clothing most are unaware that they are getting a fake. So please do not encourage these sellers by biding on ridiculous auctions claiming to sell brand-new designer pieces at ridiculously cheap prices. This simply is not possible you are most likely getting a cheap Made in China garment with fake labeling. Remember the old saying that you get what you pay for!!! A high-end garment by a deign house such as Brioni should rock your world and not be some run of the mill design with inferior workmanship. If you do find out that you have bought a cheap Knock off make sure that you report this illegal transaction to Ebay after they receive enough complaints about a seller they will kick them off.
