Pretty nightie?

83 replies

Flaoty · 16/05/2024 17:06

I’d like something comfortable and pretty. I want to be able to empty the dishwasher wearing it without the kids making cringe faces. Trying to avoid T-shirt style nighties that make me feel like I’m 12 years old. Also something that DH would consider alluring would be a bonus!

Is anyone wearing something like this that fits the bill? (I’m 5ft 5” and size 14 if it makes a difference)

I have a surprisingly flattering white cotton dobby long sleeveless nightie from Peacocks.

Last year I bought a couple of nice ones from M&S, I'll see if they have something similar this year!

This kind of concept. They've got a few different ones. Really nice material.

Thank you @SingingSands

@TitInATrance thanks, I’ll have a look. Are we talking Dobby the house elf?

@familyissues12345 thank you. I quite like that.

Look at Cyberjammies. Really nice, not too expensive, often can get a matching robe.

If you have the money if only if nightwear are really classy and fit the bill of what you’re describing.

Flaoty · 16/05/2024 20:33

@Chronicallymothering very nice! Don’t think I’m their target audience though. I’m more blobby mum making scrambled eggs than sleek silhouette floating round my villa.

@heldinadream thanks I’ll have a look.

I have these in navy. For reference, I'm 5' 0", and they're full length on me, so very dignified.

I'd love to find a lightweight , non clingy nightie with LONG sleeves . This sounds just the ticket .
Couldn't find it on line but I'll have a look in store.

Witchgreen6 · 17/05/2024 12:35

DOH , just noticed you said sleeveless. Seeing what I want to see .
It's just that I have to sit up in bed and long sleeves would be lovely .
Wonder if I could find an oversized shirt ?

If you have money to spare, The White Company has pretty nighties but you're looking at around £50.

These are exactly what I have been looking for, thank you for posting. How is the sizing?

Upcyled · 18/05/2024 10:47

Bravissimo have some lovely ones on their website. I have a couple from there.

SingingSands · 18/05/2024 16:04

@OMGitsnotgood I went for size Small - I’d say I was a 10 and these would do 10-12 easily. I’ve just ordered another because I spilt bleach down one when cleaning the bathroom the other night!

lordmadresfield · 18/05/2024 16:09

@Athena51 This is absolutely lovely!

Isn't it pretty? It's very nice quality considering that it isn't ridiculously expensive and it feels lovely and floaty on. It's nice to support a small, women-led business as well.

CaravaggiosCat · 18/05/2024 17:50

Watching with interest. The last time I wore on of my satin ones DP asked if I'd borrowed it off my mum. I was very indignant, but didn't let on it was actually something my mum would wear 🙈 so he wasn't far off.

CaravaggiosCat · 18/05/2024 17:53

Ooh I love this, just added it to my wishlist

I have this one from Their Nibs. It's lovely, practically nice enough to wear as a dress.

I just went and bought this. It's lovely
