    Hi all!

    a little dating help with this Beacon style woven robe. No label, but very much in the style of Beacon style woven blanket garments, very lightweight definitely not a coat type weight. The fabric is cotton flannel, wood buttons, there is an iron-on layer of interfacing in the front facings which burns to be a blend of cotton and synthetic materials. No evidence of it being shortened.

    Is this an older fabric made into a robe? Or just a really worn, well loved item.

    It looks to me like it was fashioned from an actual blanket. Let's see what others have to say.

  3. I thought that also. Remade into a garmnet. The interfacing looks 60s or 70s
