Another Beautiful VINTAGE "BARBIZON" NIGHTGOWN WITH DELICATE DETAILING, LACE & MORE! This delicate and Ultra-Feminine Gown has the "Barbizon" satin tag at the back, however the size and Fabric Content tags are not found. Measurements tell me it is a SIZE LARGE and the feel of the material reveal that it is either all Cotton or a Cotton Blend. A wonderful Summer Gown to keep you cool during the hot nights but one that also gives you the Gorgeous Detailing that only Barbizon Gowns can!
The Bodice of this Vintage Piece is absolutely Marvelous, with it's Double "V" of luscious Lace, at the top and lower section of the decorative area. Centered between the lace panels is a Gorgeous Embroidered Floral Medallion in Pinks, Blues & Greens. On each side of this you will find a Diagonal, Cutwork Strip beside 3 Tiny Pintucks...and all of this on a swirl edged panel of the same Baby Blue cotton the gown is made of!! Double Spaghetti straps and a Lace Trimmed back edge complete the look!! Wow...this one is sure to be a new favorite in your collection!!
This Barbizon Gown is in VERY GOOD TO EXCELLENT CONDITION, with the exception of a few tiny issues. I did not notice this until now, however I did find that the tiny edge, along several of the lace scallops, is out. It looks like a tiny thread is simply loose, but on closer inspection I see that both edges are attached but the middle section of thread has come away. This is NOT a difficult repair and with a few minutes, needle and thread, you can have these back in place in no time! I find NO soiling, NO tears and NO other issues on this very collectible piece. Please compare measurements below to one of your own, well fitting garments and remember that you need a few inches of each measurement for "fit".
MEASUREMENTS ARE:
BUST: APPROX. 42" AROUND (should fit up to a 38" bustline or so)
WAIST: FREE FLOWING...UP TO 50" AROUND
HIPS: FREE FLOWING...UP TO 50" AROUND
TOTAL LENGTH: 28" FROM UNDERARM TO HEMLINE
Please view the many photos and feel free to write with any questions or concerns, PRIOR to placing your bid. My apologies for the blurry quality on some of the pictures. I did take those that are "dark" looking, without the flash, to show the fabulous detailing of the gown.

Any & All Returns are at seller's discretion. I will NOT refund for buyer's remorse so please, ask all questions PRIOR to bidding. It is the buyer's responsibility to do so. I only refund for mistaken misrepresentation. NO shipping costs are refundable. If a refund is allowed, item must be returned within 3 days, in the exact condition it was shipped out in.

I run my Ebay business by myself, which means ONE woman takes the photos, writes the listings, purchases the items and ships them all out. *I only ship ONE DAY A WEEK, normally on SATURDAY, and pack all items on FRIDAY. *This tells you that if your item is not paid for by the early evening, on the prior Thursday, your things will not go out for another week. I do my very best to try and ship them earlier, if at all possible, but normally, unless asked for prior to bidding, I don't make more than one day available to ship. If you need rush delivery, PLEASE ASK ABOUT IT, PRIOR to bidding! *Please keep in mind, I cannot control what happens with your package once it leaves my hands. This is why I recommend Insuring EVERY item you purchase.
**REGARDING SHIPPING COSTS: PER EBAY, THE POSTAL CALCULATOR BELOW IS AN ESTIMATE ONLY! I do my very best to assure my buyers of the least possible expense for postage but I DO NOT box my items prior to selling them so that I have them available for questions. Any handling fees are listed right in the auction descriptions. If ACTUAL POSTAGE COSTS are higher than the calculator estimates, it is the RESPONSIBILITY of the BUYER to PAY THESE COSTS. Thank you.
Insurance is not required for every auction, however, if an item is fragile, or delicate, I will insist it be insured. This protects you as the buyer, as well as myself. It is a very minimal cost to pay for coverage. Buyers may choose from any method of shipping that is available for that PARTICULAR AUCTION. Often, weight restrictions must be taken into consideration. I never force you to choose a shipping method that saves ME time but costs YOU money!
*PAYPAL ONLY for ALL buyers!. **ABSOLUTELY NO E-CHECKS!! *PAYMENT MUST BE RECEIVED WITHIN 5 days. Buyer MUST CONTACT ME WITHIN 2 DAYS of Auction end, to confirm address or item can/may be re-listed. Thank you for your business!
