Wow :twitch:

What an awesome collection and also very well photographed.

It must be great wearing Satin gloves to sleep , they look so comfy , flexible and easy to put on - off , almost nothing in your bed can damage them. mine , I have to be careful not to touch my oily face at night and never to touch those edges of the cabinet or wall :lmao:

Have you ever wash your Satin gloves ? if yes , how often ?

My fav from this collection must be the Les Debutantes one 8D


Nope it won't stop here , you have at least 50 more pairs waiting (and waving) for you , trust me :geek:

I know the trouble with damaging the gloves while sleeping. Actually it is not very visible in the pictures but my opera cotton gloves are a little damaged, I think one night I touched the edge of the bed.

I washed my white satin gloves twice and my cotton gloves once, but carefully by hand.
I also washed my vintage white gloves when I bought them. They are old and had a little smell. I kept them in the sun. Now they are very soft and the smell is gone.

There is no way I'd notice that the white pair is actually Vintage , you took cake of them well , now they look like new after being washed :up:

You're good collector man , treat them well and they will treat you even better. 0:)

Since my girlfriend and I wear different sizes, i got her her own collection too.
I envy hers because, I can find a lot of vintage leather gloves in her size :-P

So there are mainly unlined vintage leather, some silk lined vintage pairs, suede, velvet and satin pairs.

No, sorry :-(
I don't have an attraction for latex, household and rubber gloves
