Cotton night-shirts/night-dresses that aren't floral or twee

Going in to hospital soon for major abdominal surgery.

I need some new nightwear. Not allowed pjs because of nature of op.

I'm sure I won't care what I look like when the time comes, but just to make the prospect of the enforced hospital visit a bit more appealing, I'd like to buy some cotton night shirts or night dresses that aren't straight out of the 1950s.

They are surprisingly difficult to find! Everything seems to have florals or twee bows. (Save for hugely expensive brands like Calvin Klein.)

Any ideas anyone please?

There are some cute ones on here: www.cologneandcotton.com/bedroom/cotton-nightwear/

Admittedly many are a bit Amish style, but the Ava for example is pretty. Sadly they never have the ones I like in my size, but I keep checking back.

Just noticed the no florals.....many of these do have floral so perhaps not the best tip!

I'd be looking at the small men's options personally.

I often get plain cotton Tshirt dresses. I have some from H&M and Asos. They fit the bill

Same here . My favourite one is a plain black loose fitting one with spaghetti straps from H&M.

Thank you for yet more options! Will check them out!

I love the Bonsoir night shirt with collar in cologne and cotton. I'm not really a pink person though.

I tried on some striped cotton nighties bought from M&S tonight. Definitely had the look of an escapee from the institution sadly Confused
