Vintage 1940s Peach Satin Slip Rayon Lace Trim Size 38
This vintage 1940s satin slip is rendered in a soft peach-pink tone with a gentle sheen, featuring delicate scalloped lace trim along the neckline. The bodice is shaped with inset panels, while the skirt falls straight from the waist, creating a smooth and fluid mid-century silhouette.
The fabric has the characteristic hand of rayon satin, widely used in post-war lingerie for its soft drape and subtle lustre. The slip is suspended from adjustable satin straps, allowing for a flexible and comfortable fit.
The construction, materials, and printed tag (“Rayon No. 1672 Size 38”) are consistent with late 1940s production. Pieces of this type were designed as foundation garments but are now often worn as dresses or layering pieces.
