Nightgown Summer.

By: Jen Shoop

There’s a new summer look quietly taking over — the summer nightgown. Think billowy white dresses, morning dew, smocked bodices, rosewater mist, loose locks, and hemlines made for twirling barefoot in a garden.

It’s part cottage-core, part European coastal, and entirely effortless. These floaty silhouettes are comfortable enough to nap in, but polished enough for drinks al fresco — how I’ll be wearing them. How gorgeous is this Bonnie Nightgown from Hill House’s nightgown launch? Love the pale blue ribbon detailing. Meanwhile, this ethereal Orelle Nightgown from Doen reads poetic and earthy at once.

My top rec for this vibe on a budget: Petite Plume’s Ava ($98) if you’re after a midi-length, and this ASOS ($38) if you’re after a mini. I’d style as follows:

If an airy white number feels a little too nighttime for daytime wear — can I recommend:

+This gingham lovely (I ordered!)

+This If/Only If in chocolate gingham!

+This Loretta Caponi.

+Almost anything from Mi Golondrina — this, this!

+This scoop-back Lake.
