Antique Yellow Boudoir Cap, 1920s

This enchanting antique boudoir cap, dating to the 1920s, is a delicate example of intimate women’s fashion from the Art Deco era, blending functionality with playful elegance. Crafted from soft yellow silk, the cap features a circumferential lace border and is adorned with two ornamental silk flowers at the sides—details that evoke the romantic charm of lingerie accessories worn in the privacy of the boudoir.

Such 1920s lingerie caps were worn while applying makeup, styling hair, or even sleeping, serving both to protect the hairstyle and to enhance a woman’s appearance in her most personal moments. This piece is very well preserved, with its silk and lace retaining their original softness and shape.

This rare yellow silk boudoir bonnet is ideal for collectors of antique lingerie, Art Deco fashion, or museum-quality accessories, offering a graceful glimpse into the intimate rituals of 1920s femininity.
