Welcome to Spellbound Elegance, a shop that focuses on glamorous loungewear and sleepwear for women.
How it began...
The idea for Spellbound Elegance was formed after watching a few hours of late night TV and coming across women’s fashions from the 1950s, ‘60s, and ‘70s. The actresses were dressed in elegant loungewear, complete with jewelry, styled hair, and other complementary accessories.
Mid-Century Nightwear
Check out these charming ladies in their glamorous loungewear-
Not only are the nightdresses beautiful in color and style, there are small embellishments that elevate them from the ordinary: Contrasting bows and trim, jewelry, matching ribbons, flowing robes. All come together for a eye-catching ensemble.
Pretty in Pink
This beautiful set has everything going for it! The flowing pink sack-back nightdress and robe is cinched in the front with a cord with large pom poms. It is the epitome of magic, romance, and fun.
After searching for similar items of elegant sleepwear in today's market, it was apparent that these fashions, so prevalent in mid-century styles, are no longer available. This niche has shrunk tremendously in recent decades.
We can't go backward in time - who would want to wear an Elizabethan Ruff Collar anyway...

... but we can sometimes find vintage clothing and accessories, or updated styles that will add some romance to your life.
