Good Morning Ladies!!

I have no idea if this little beauty could even be considered Vintage. It comes down into a lovely V shape in the front. I need to go take some more pics of it. So if you need a better view, just let me know!

Very pretty! :singing:

This law came into effect in Britain in 1987:

"Manufactures of pyjamas,[...] who choose to meet the flammability requirements of the Nightwear (Safety) Regulations 1985 must include a label with the wording 'LOW FLAMMABILITY TO BS 5722' or 'KEEP AWAY FROM FIRE'. "(in red letters)

So I guess late eighties at the earliest...

It's definitely pre-2000 as that's when they stopped using St Michael. Is there anything on the back of the label? I have some from the 90s that I was able to date exactly because they put a year next to a copyright line - it actually said copyright Marks and Spencer '96 in tiny print. (if only all clothes were labeled with their year of manufacture!)

So late 80s to 2000. The fact that it's made in the UK makes it likely to be earlier than later - during the 90s M&S gradually started moving most of their manufacture overseas.

My guess would be early 90s.
