Antique Replica SMITHSONIAN INST. 1700s ROBE white cotton EmbroideredBig collar

This is a robe. But it's more than a Robe from the mall. The Smithsonian Institution makes Historical Replicas and sell them at the gift shop and catalogs. Some time, they made this 1700s robe. it's 100% Cotton, size large and only has one tie to hold it closed. I keep picturing Keira Knightly in Pride and Prejudice, when Dame Judy Dench comes over in the middle of the night banging on the Bennet's door. the ladies throw a robe over their pajamas. Let me give you the measurements: shoulders 16" across. shoulder to hem is 49.5". chest is 40". Embroidered Peter Pan collar. the lace has curled a bit from the last wash. i like the look, shrinked. anyway. Who wants it? sent in a box.
