What's the difference?
Nighwear has become a really popular fashion item, used in kawaii fashion from Decora to Lolita, today we're going to learn the difference between a peignoir, negligee, chemise and more!

Nighties (ナイトガウン)

A nightgown, nightie or nightdress is a loosely hanging item of nightwear, today almost exclusively worn by women. A nightgown is made from cotton, silk, satin, or nylon and may be decorated with lace appliqu?s or embroidery at the bust and hem.

Nighties are made from light cotton, linen, silk or light synthetic fabrics in summer and warm flannel or synthetic fabrics for winter. The most common shape is a loose fitting slip that hangs from a yoke at the chest.

Nighties often have a frill around the hem and embroidery on the yoke.

Many nighties have buttons down the front but most slip on over the head.

Negligee (ネグリジェ)

From the 19th C, a loose fitting , attractive robe worn informally at home. Usually trimmed with lace or ribbon, this was worn for rest with out a corset, or over a loosened corset. Supplanted by the tea gown in the early 1900s, it is now a feminine dressing gown in sheer fabrics.
ネグリジェ(仏語:n?glig?、英語:negligee “だらしない”)とは就寝時に着用するワンピース型の寝間着である。17世紀頃からフランスで使い始められ、17世紀から18世紀には男女問わず着用されていたが、現在では婦人用寝具として使用されている。
柔らかい素材を使い、ゆったりとした形でフリルやレースなどの装飾が付いた優雅なデザインとなっているものが多いが、パジャマとの差異はワンピースであるかツーピースであるかという点であり、装飾性の高さで分類されているわけではない。

Negligees are a little like the lingerie of nighties. Most commonly made from soft, sheer or lose hanging synthetic and silk fabrics. Negligees often accentuate the neckline and hang loosely from the waist or hips.

Babydoll (ベビードール)

A babydoll is a short, sometimes sleeveless, loose-fitting nightgown or negligee intended as nightwear for women. It sometimes has formed cups called a bralette for cleavage with an attached, loose-fitting skirt falling in length usually between the upper thigh and the belly button. The garment is often trimmed with lace, ruffles, appliques, marabou fur, bows, and ribbons, optionally with spaghetti straps. Sometimes it is made of sheer or translucent fabric like nylon or chiffon or silk.
ベビードール(英語標記:Baby Doll)とは、女性が着用するアンダーバストの切り替えからルースな広がりの裾をもつナイティとしての下着の一種である。1970年代に出現した。
ベビードールは、他のランジェリーと比較しても、一段と嗜好性が強い衣料で、保護・保温・吸汗などの基本機能よりも視覚的インパクトに重点が置かれる。たとえば、襟や裾などに繊細なレースやフリルを追加し、また胸元やアンダーバストにアクセントになる色のリボンをあしらう、などといった過剰な装飾が行われる。また、胸元に深いスリットを入れて、それを紐やリボンで結ぶようにするなど、ひもパンと同様な扇情的なギミックをもつデザインもある。
身生地としては、セクシーさを強調したものでは、「透け感」を持つ、ナイロン、ポリエステルのシフォンジョーゼットや光沢感のあるシルク、サテン生地などが用いられる。また、可憐さを強調したものでは、フィット感の自然なトリコットやストレッチ天竺などが利用される。

Chemise (シュミーズ)

Most commonly the term refers to a loose-fitting, sleeveless undergarment or type of lingerie which is unfitted at the waist. It can also refer to a short, sleeveless dress that hangs straight from the shoulders and fits loosely at the waist. A chemise typically does not have any buttons or other fasteners and is put on by either dropping it over the head or stepping into it and lifting it up.

A chemise or 'slip' is a very simple under garment sometimes used as sleepwear and also worn under dresses. Chemises are most commonly made from silk, satin or other slippery synthetic fabrics in order to reduce friction between layers.

Peignoir (ローブ)

A peignoir is a long outer garment for women which is frequently sheer and made of chiffon or another translucent fabric.
often sheer robe worn over nightwear or undergarments in the bedroom. Always a loose garment with a tie at the neck and an open front. Worn in various fabrics from as early as the 16th C.

Probably most popular in street fashion is the peignoir! A sheer robe that usually buttons or ties at the chest then hangs loosely. There robes come in many colours and lengths!
