Granny nighties

[WhatIfWhatIf]

Not sure I'm putting this in the right place as clearly granny nighties are not renowned for being either stylish or beautiful but it is shopping related so maybe someone will be able to help me!

My poor mum is currently in hospital and is therefore spending a lot of time in nighties. I would like to get her some new ones but can't seem to find any suitable ones anywhere.

My list of requirements is not long, I was hoping for below the knee, short sleeves (but not sleeveless), no low neckline and ideally cotton.

Any ideas of where to look?

Might not be as long as you like, but I'm on the short side at just over 5' and they are below the knee on me. High neckline and some have short sleeves. I actually wear these and am nowhere near granny age 😂

Try vinted. Thats where i sold all my nannas.

Definitely Bonmarche. I had a similar struggle trying to find some for my mother. I ended up buying five from Bonmarche.

If urgent and online I found some good ones for my mum in Amazon. We don’t live near many clothes shops, so very handy.

Next have a good cotton one that would fit your requirements: https://www.next.co.uk/style/su565133/an4324

Wow, have only just seen all these replies - thank you so much for all the suggestions, much appreciated.

May already have been said but I would strongly suggest that you buy nightdresses that button all way down the front. Having wrangled many women in and out of nightdresses over a long nursing career these are much more comfortable and practical. I would also ignore the recommendations on here for expensive nighties as there is a chance they may get spoiled or even lost in hospital.

I've been wondering about what's most practical for hospital, which might not be the same as we would choose to wear at home.

Aren't hospitals usually warm, hence short sleeves being requested.

My health has been good so far but being older I'd like to have a few handy just in case.

Then I imagine you will appreciate the scratchy cheap cotton and rough seams usually found on Primark clothes. A good reason not to shop there, aside from the sweat shops overseas.

These are excellent, I used them when staying in a hospital. Comfortable to sleep and dignified enough to receive visitors or even venture outside the room to the coffee machine. Even have pockets! I am not a granny though. :)
