Romantic Lavender Ombre: Vintage Full Slip
Waterline: a Vintage Full Slip Hand Dyed in Lavender Ombre
The bodice on this vintage full slip is divine! Satin lined cups are edged with alluring lace. Hand dyed in lavender ombre, the slip deepens to a gorgeous shade of lilac. The finish on this slip produced subtle “lines’ that remind me of the lines the ocean creates on the sand at low tide.
Measurements are taken flat, please double where appropriate. This is an XS.
Armpit to Armpit: 17″
Upper Waist (beneath bustline): 14″
Armpit to hem line: 29″

Vintage Full Slip Hand Dyed in Sea Foam Ombre
Vintage Full Slip Hand Dyed in Sea Foam Ombre
I LOVE the ombre on this slip. It’s absolutely stunning. This gorgeous vintage full slip begins in a lovely teal that fades to an alluring sea foam green.
Which brings me to the realization I always thought the color “sea foam” was one word: Seafoam. I’m convinced I had a crayon as a child with that name.
Where was I?
This slip is an XL — and the bodice of gorgeous lace is perfect for a girl with curves! So many of the slips I find in size 12 and above just don’t meet my standards of “pretty”… so, it’s always fabulous to find a vintage full slip that is both pretty and a wearable size. Every woman, no matter her size, deserves to feel beautiful. And wearing this slip, you truly will feel beautiful!
Measurements are taken flat, please double where appropriate.
Armpit to Armpit: 19″ (there is a lot of give in the bodice–perfect for a girl with curves)
Upper Waist (beneath bustline):16″
Armpit to hem line: 32″

Fresh Vintage: Hand Dyed Slips Arriving This Week
Fresh vintage slips hand dyed to perfection in late summer, early fall colors are arriving this week! I’m working on photographs and hope to list them soon.
Vintage Slips in the Window
In pretty winter light.
I’ve been working on hand dyeing 3 vintage slips this week. I’m getting close to listing them, I’m just down to writing up the actual listing on etsy. So consider this your sneak peek of what’s coming.
I love this photograph of them lined up in the window. I don’t typically use the “art” shots in my listings, since people need to see the product and we’re limited on photos. But I’m always tempted to. It’s a personal opinion thing, but I much prefer photos of items in settings: I’ll admit I buy into the story being told.
Because who doesn’t love a good story? It can sometimes be difficult to tell one in a product shot AND really show the product. So, I usually opt for the photos that give you the best look at my wares. But… oh… the wispy, romantic, airy photos sing to me. Someday, I’ll produce a catalog, y’all. Until then… I guess I’ll just keep telling stories on the blog.
Embracing Autumn
A big pile of color! I could almost “jump” into it!
Mireio is embracing Autumn! Summer’s pastels are giving way to deep, earthy tones. I’m exited to be listing new hand dyed vintage slips inspired by the colors and fragrances of Autumn: luscious blackberries, earthy tea, crisp apples, and falling leaves. Stay tuned: they’ll be in store on Monday! (if not sooner.)
Until then, have you thought about your holiday shopping yet? Autumn is a great time to pick up a Travel Pretty Buckwheat Hull Pillow. One for you for all your holiday travels. And one for a friend! With or without lavender!
