Is the nightdress a new trend that women should showcase on the street?
The nap dress, which is a hybrid of a nightdress, is suddenly the new pandemic trend that one should endorse because it gives a sense of relaxation and comfortability. Also, wearing a nightgown during the daytime is the unofficial uniform of women who “can appreciate the aesthetic appeal of a nightgown.”
Moreover, this year the nightdress got a new fresh look with extra details such as ruffles, lace, smocking, defining the nap dress trend.
But if you are ready to take a chance on the nap dress trend, you should consider a few styling tips to make you look stylish and not lousy.
Styling tips on wearing the nap dress trend
- Fabric is the number one priority when choosing a nap dress style. Look for quality materials such as cotton, linen, viscose, and avoid fabrics that hug your body like polyester and spandex.
- The print is one of the elements that distinguish a nightgown from a streetwear dress. Choose big and bold prints instead of small and delicate ones.
- Details of the dress make a considerable difference. Avoid dainty laces, ruffles, tiny bows, and thin straps typical for nightgowns and chemises and camisoles. Choose dresses with statement sleeves, especially if they are short with a casual flared fit.
- Selecting a maxi or midi dress with a relaxed loose-fitting, you should look for smart details such as a belt to emphasize the waistline, a v-neckline, and an A-line skirt for a more flattering silhouette.
