A nightgown (also called a nightdress) is a loosely hanging item of nightwear
nowadays solely for women, Its length may vary from hip-length (babydoll) to floor-length
(peignoir) but is typically knee-length. A nightgown is manufactured of e.g. cotton,
silk, satin, or nylon. It may be decorated with lace appliqués or embroidery
at cups and hem. Optionally, panties (UK - knickers) are worn under the nightgown
(nightdress).
A short nightgown is often called nightie. A slip nightgown may be used as
a nightgown or as a full slip.
