100% cotton nighties for a little girl that doesn't cost £20+ ???

[OhCobblers]

So where are they then? I like the traditional style, ie, trying to veer away from Peppa, Hello Kitty, etc, but they're all quite pricey?!
TIA

Just buy cheap cotton dresses. Cotton "nighties" are hard to find because of an antiquated law that nighties should be fire resistant, even though pyjamas don't need to be.

Watching as I also want to know the answer!

I suppose you've tried the usual high street suspects? I bought dd one from M and S last year for under a tenner iirc. I was v. surprised to see it for sale as cotton nighties for girls are hard to find, tend to be Victorian looking an are v. expensive.

I put DD (5y) in t shirts for 11 year olds, they are long enough and cheap. Like you couldn't find cheap cotton nighties and the polyester ones irritate DDs ezema.

Laura Ashley seem to have them, but they are cotton jersey, any good?

I was given some Petit Bateau ones for DD1, the cotton is lovely and DD2 is now using them, I saw some nice plain-ish ones in h&m last week so def. cheaper but not bad !

I keep an eye on the sales at

White company
Feather and black - like this for £9 reduced from £23
Half pint chic

Check half pint chic - currently running a nightwear sale here

I agree, M&S are the worst culprits with their nasty polyester nightdresses which bobble after one wear (didn't see label till after washed and worn and saw what they were made of)

Brandnewbrighttomorrow fab link, thanks!!!!!!!!!

You know when you mentioned nighties needing to be fire resistant, and PJs not? Is polyester fire resistant?

Agree, m&s are awful for girls' nighties. Will check half pint link.

I've ordered the stripy jersey pj's for all three of mine - haven't seen any I like as much in years. Some of the nightdresses are gorgeous but too small for my eldest

Long T-shirts and cheap summer dresses are a good alternative.

Thanks so much for great ideas and links! Much nicer than anything I've seen!

Matalan :)

Thanks glib but they're polyester or a mix of it!

Oh, my DD has a couple and they are cotton

Sainos had some last year

I hoover up Boden ones at sale time. Still tend by be around £15 bit very few places sell long sleeved ones IME

Have ordered some from half pint chic. Yes, baa, sheep .

Also bought some as handy pressies.

Will report back when they arrive. And yes, that is me wots bought up all of the stock.

Next time you are on holiday in France you can find nice ones in Monoprix, the French supermarket. They aren't super-cheap but they are very tasteful.

Got the nighties from half pint chic. Prompt efficient delivery. Not cheap but that's very much reflected in the quality. Very lovely. Excellent heavy cotton, feel lovely, well finished, generous sizing, and pretty. They should last a good while. Vastly superior than any other nightwear I've ever bought for DCs.
Thanks for the link!

My three insist on wearing their matching pj's from half pint chic, despite the fact that they are a size too big for all of them, even going so far as getting their pals dressed up in pj's too for a mid afternoon pyjama party this afternoon

So glad you've found some gorgeous nighties lurking, I was most disappointed they didn't have any in my eldest girl's size and my youngest is too little for nighties yet - should have stocked up for her

Have a look at this website www.littlepjs.co.uk we have some lovely girls nighties and pyjamas and also boys pyjamas.
Nighties have to be fire retarded as they are seen as a higher risk of catching on fire with being floaty - I agree that this does seem strange when you can have pyjamas made from the same fabric that dont have to be !

Lovely, LittlePJ's but a bit pricey!

powell craft have the most popular pure cotton nightdresses which are traditional english.Yes a bit pricey but resell well on ebay due to popular demand so you get nearly half the money back-the same goes for the white company.I resold one of my daughters nightdresses for £10.00!
