Modeling a 1930s or 1940s satin dressing gown

This was a decadent vintage satin dressing gown, complete with a matching 3/4 length over-robe. It totally has the vibe of a classic Old Hollywood movie star, and the model got quite serious and moody wearing it. It’s amazing how wearing different clothing can influence your emotions and mood!
I recently went through and re-edited and re-cropped them. I like them better than my original edits (which I lost anyway).
- This is how the over-slip/robe fit. This picture is illustrative, and not one of my favorites.
- I like these photos best in black and white, but here’s a color version (in Kodachrome, ofcourse) for reference.
- This is a better shot of the gown’s jacket. The model has a bit of a melodramatic attitude in this shot 🙂
