Nightshirts

A nightgown is one of the most homely, cozy and intimate items of a woman's wardrobe. It appeared in the 15th century, before that it was customary to sleep either in ordinary clothes or without it at all.

The first nightgowns had a rather simple cut, were made of cambric, were very expensive and were intended exclusively for noble people. It was only in the 19th century that the nightgown became widespread and now not a single female wardrobe can do without it.

Nightgowns have a fairly wide range of models and are classified depending on the length of the product, sleeves, material of manufacture, etc.

Nightgowns are long, short or medium length. They can be of different cut - close fitting, free straight, flared. Shirts come with sleeves and without sleeves, with straps or with wide straps. They can be sewn from different materials: from warm, dense to transparent and weightless.

Shirts can be casual and smart for special occasions. Shirts are warm or light depending on the season.

Among the most popular styles of nightgowns are:

Baby Dol. A doll-style shirt is a short model, flared from the chest, decorated with satin ribbons, bows, ruffles and other decorative elements. The model can have one or several cuts. Perfect for women of different body sizes, thanks to the versatile cut. Sewn from thin, translucent and transparent fabrics.

Combination... One of the most popular nightgown styles.It is usually made of thin or transparent materials, such as silk or guipure, and is of medium length. The versatile cut is ideal for women of different body types. Comfortable fit and soft-touch fabric give you a comfortable feeling all night long.

Nightgowns made in a romantic style. Such models are usually made of thin transparent or translucent materials and are abundantly decorated with ruffles and frills. May have lantern sleeves. The cut can be straight or flared. These dressy shirts are perfect for a special occasion like a romantic evening.

Cotton nightdress. The most popular sleeping model that can be found in almost any woman's wardrobe. It owes its popularity, first of all, to natural, breathable material, simple cut, absence or minimal amount of decorative details and ornaments. Made from plain or printed cotton. Perfect for women who prefer convenience and comfort in their clothes.

Silk or satin printed nightgowns... Very often the "animal" ornament is used as a stuffing: tiger or leopard. Ideal for the most daring and liberated women.

When choosing a suitable model, first of all, you should give preference to your own convenience and comfort. It is advisable to choose a nightgown for a pregnant or lactating woman from natural fabrics, for example, cotton or flannel. Such materials do not cause skin irritation and allergic reactions.

The length of the nightdress should be short. A shirt that is too long gets confused and hinders movement. The style is as free as possible so that the expectant or nursing mother feels comfortable.

Nightgowns for a special occasion are a separate category of women's clothing. Sheer materials, bold cuts, seductive cuts and cuts and ultra-short length will impress any man's heart.

That is why these shirts are a must for romantic evenings and dates with your loved one.

The most popular colors for sexy shirts are red, black and white. This is a classic three-color set for lingerie. Shirts of purple, dark green, pink, gold and other colors are also popular.

Sleep nightgowns are usually made from natural materials that meet the following requirements:

• Good breathability and hygroscopicity. The shirt should breathe and absorb sweat well.
• Lightness, softness;
• Practicality, ease of washing and ironing;
• Durability;
• The material must not accumulate static electricity;
• The fabric must be hypoallergenic.

Cotton, flannel, silk, satin fully meet these requirements. This is why these materials are ideal for everyday nightgowns.

For the cold season, as a rule, warm materials are chosen - thick cotton, flannel. For summer, you can choose shirts made of linen, fine cotton, silk, satin.

Nightgowns made of knitted fabric with a slight addition of synthetics are very popular.Such shirts stretch well, fit well to the figure, are easy to wash and iron.

Elegant models of nightgowns, as well as shirts for special occasions, are sewn from very thin, beautiful materials, natural and synthetic origin. It can be satin, silk, nylon, cambric, lace, lycra.

Another material often used for sewing nightgowns is viscose. This is a synthetic fabric, which in some properties is not inferior to natural ones, only it costs much less. Translucent cambric nightgowns are particularly attractive, soft and delicate. They are quite practical and very comfortable to wear.

When choosing a suitable model, you need to pay attention not only to your own taste preferences and the external attractiveness of the product, but also to the composition, material properties, style, practicality, etc. The nightgown should be free and not restrict movement, therefore, when purchasing a suitable model, it is better to choose a shirt one size larger, but in no case, not less.

The sleeves can be of different lengths. Shirts with long sleeves are usually chosen to be worn during the cold season. Summer shirts can have short sleeves or be completely sleeveless, for example, with shoulder straps.

For petite ladies of graceful physique, we recommend shirts with a fitted cut of short length. The owners of curvaceous forms should not choose shirts made of heavy shiny fabrics. In such models, the female figure looks even more massive.

The color scheme of the season is quite rich and varied. Lovers of light, pastel colors can choose nightgowns in light green, lilac, pink, sand, blue, cream, plain and with a small print. Fans of more saturated tones in clothes can be recommended deep shades of plum, emerald, red, dark blue.

Nightgowns made in a combination of two materials contrasting in texture, for example, satin or silk and lace, remain relevant.

Ladies who prefer coziness and comfort choose models of a straight or fitted cut, which outwardly resemble loose T-shirts. Such shirts are decorated with a bright, large print, and are usually made of cotton or other natural fabrics.

Lovers of more complex and original styles turn their attention to short slip-on shirts or flared models with deep cutouts and high slits, lace and satin inserts, made of transparent or shiny fabrics.
