1970s 1980s Vintage Mel-Lin Taupe Brown Dress Slip or Nightie - XL; 1X
A lovely classic vintage staple - a light taupe-brown dress slip (or nightie). Vintage dress slips are the secret to anyones vintage wardrobe. They can help minimizing undergarment lines and I personally cannot wear a wool knit sets without one (as they keep that itchy vintage wool away from your skin!). A true vintage fashion staple. This lovely Taupe colored slip features lace detailing across the hem and the bodice. Fabric is Nylon and does have a slight give! Label is for Mel-Lin. Tag says size 42. Would likely best fit a modern Extra Large, possibly a 1X. Please note this is a pullover piece as there are no closures. Dress form is a modern Medium for reference.

Measurements (some flat measurements are pictured):
Bust: 42 inches
Waist: 36 inches
Hips: 46 inches
Length: 40 inches (straps can be adjusted somewhat)
Good vintage condition- Some overall wear to the slip. A few loose threads here and there too that do not seem to impact wear.
All measurements are approximate as they are taken flat - for garments specifically this means where applicable (bust, waist, hips) has been doubled unless stated otherwise. If you are uncertain about fit and/or need more measurements please ask! If it is provided in the listing, models and/or dress form sizes are used as a point of reference only. Please remember that all bodies are different so always defer to the measurements I provide and check them against your own, preferably on a similar style garment.
