Nightwear

And so to bed... Museum Selection is delighted to offer cotton nightwear inspired by period pieces, from the simple chemise of the 15th century to the nightdresses of the Victorian era when ladies applied their skills to adding embroidery, pintucking and lace to fine cotton lawn. Periodicals of the 19th century would include embroidery patterns which could then be used on robes and nightdresses. Our own collection includes prettily patterned and intricately stitched nightdresses in different lengths for a touch of period charm. Vintage style robes and chemises offer boudoir elegance, while bed jackets recall examples from the 1950s. Pajamas, originating from Indian dress were not widely worn by ladies until the 1930s and, in our collection, you'll find cotton and silk style pyjamas printed with Art Nouveau and Art Deco designs. From floral and botanical prints to exotic motifs inspired by world art, discover luxurious nightwear for all seasons.
