Some nice long skirts but most of the items look weird to me.

I have worn nightshirts in bed for probably 40 years, maybe more. Since I live in a 175 year old house in a huge bedroom it is kind of cool at night, so I bought a bunch of nightshirts off Nights in White Flannel, a Canadian company who make them out of a fantastic warm fabric, I asked them to make me some long ones, not their usual sort of knee length, they didn't shrink as I expected so many years later, they are still floor length or just a bit too long. Lovely and warm. I did find some long sleeved above ankle length lighter nightshirts but they are Chinese quality, as in seams are letting go, okay for the Summer though.Tazzmac wrote: ↑Tue Jan 03, 2023 12:24 am So , I'm a part time kiltie but funnily enough I spend a lot of time in a 'dress' if the truth be told and ironically I've never had when occasionally my neighbours have seen me . It's kind of weird I've never really thought of it til recently .
I have never owned a pair of pyjamas in my life . I've always worn nightshirts (correct term ) or as Mum called them 'nighty's' ..She'd say "Your nighty is ready for putting away " after it was laundered..
The old ones were rather long , almost to my ankles but I must have a dozen or so and the new ones are above the knee. I like mine slightly over size so I can slip in and out of them easy . The flannel winter ones are surprisingly warm and the lightweight summer ones are so much better than any pyjama tops and bottoms could be..super easy to wash too..
On the odd occasion I've been ready for bed or forgotten to lock the car and gone out just in my nighty and one of my neighbours have seen me ..If it bothers them like my kilts they've never said so ..Maybe I'm more of a non conformist than I thought eh .. Does anybody else like nighty's?.. Love to know ... Cheers .
I've worn nightshirts for years after arising (I have been sleeping au naturel since teen years). Here in the US choices in men's nightshirts are very limited and prices are high; I have only found them online or in catalogs, in whatever shade of gray one wants. On the other hand, women's T-shirt and tank dresses are inexpensive, varied in color and readily found - and very comfortable. Shift styles are suitable for the male body shape. I have run a couple of errands in such, but they are mostly at-home wear. The most comfortable thing I lounge around the house in is a French terry swim coverup, also marketed to women. Shorter than a typical nightshirt, but soft and drapey.Tazzmac wrote:

Mine are all sorts .. I have roughly a dozen . I have different lengths too except the ankle length ones ..Too long .. My longest one would be just below the knees and the shortest one maybe 100 mm below my backside ..They can't be tight up top though and short to elbow sleeve only ..Don't like the long sleeve ones . I hate the thought of pyjamas ..Horrible and messy to wear I think ..but to each his own though for those who do like them ..it's just my opinion of them ..Cheers..Myopic Bookworm wrote: ↑Wed Jan 04, 2023 4:44 pm I have a fairly long nightshirt which my wife bought me, but I rarely wear it because it tends to overheat my upper half.
Same here. I wear clothing out of bed, not in it.6ft3Aussie wrote: ↑Thu Jan 05, 2023 12:01 pm Nope, dresses and night shirts are not my thing. Same with pyjamas.
I got frustrated years (and years and years) ago with feeling all tied up in bed.
If it's a cold night (which in QLD we won't have again until at least mid April) I pull over the thin summer weight doona...
My first cat used to keep crawling under the covers, one reason I wore nightshirts then was to protect me against claws or wet midnight cat! Now I just like the additional warmth.6ft3Aussie wrote: ↑Thu Jan 05, 2023 12:01 pm Nope, dresses and night shirts are not my thing. Same with pyjamas.
