People are wearing nightgowns anywhere but to bed
This is not your grandmother’s nightgown. Or maybe it is. The same style of sleepwear that was once strictly relegated to bedrooms and boudoirs has now become the summer dress of the year.
Reformation’s Holly Sleep Dress, a floaty mini dress with a scrunched 1950s-style neckline with scalloped edges, was inspired by “vintage nightgowns that you can probably get away with wearing out and about,” the brand’s website read. Similarly, fellow cool-girl label Damson Madder noted that its Elspeth Nightdress, which features dainty floral embroidery and a broderie hemline, is “effortlessly wearable from night to day.” Meanwhile, If Only If — the British brand behind the scene-stealing nightgowns worn by Megan Stalter in Lena Dunham’s Netflix series “Too Much” — photographs models wearing their nighties with woven basket bags at the farmer’s market or out in the countryside.

Quentin Crisp wrote of an eccentric woman who had but one gown. She would wear a brooch and it was her dress. At night she would remove the brooch and it became her nightgown.

isn't a nightgown basically the same thing as a caftan?

Meanwhile, men's pajamas are on many of the catwalks this season as daywear for men. With the piping round the edges and everything. D&G Spring/Summer 2026 is an example. Skip to about 4 mins in.
I have no news on the engineering of the fly, which will doubtless be of foremost interest to the DL.

Like every so-called trend, you can get away with it if you’re under 21 and weigh <100 pounds
On anyone else they’ll be phoning Shady Pines and telling them to bring the butterfly net

No one is inspired by Megan Stalter’s or any other fat woman’s clothing choices.

Cottage core shit. It’s all over Instagram. Women frolicking through their country gardens with fluttering butterflies, baby ducks and floaty flowers. They have tousled hair and white cotton nighties carrying baskets full of freshly picked items. Wood fairies.
