Lingerie designer Sylvia Pedlar created the first shorty nightgown in 1942, known as the Babydoll. It was a practical response to the fabric shortage during World War II. The pretty and feminine sleepwear style reflected the resourcefulness of women during a time of scarcity. The Babydoll gained further popularity after the release of the 1956 hit movie “Baby Doll,” which catapulted it into the realm of pop culture. Since then, it has become synonymous with romantic and alluring lingerie.
The Babydoll has recently undergone a contemporary renaissance! Shadowline recognized the modern appeal of this vintage nightgown and has introduced the fresh, elegant and sexy, Silhouette Lace Vintage Babydoll Nightie, adding a modern twist to this classic garment.
Just launched this spring, the Silhouette Lace Vintage Babydoll Nightie(33737) is already on its way to being a top-seller! Crafted from 100% Satintrique® Nylon Tricot, this modern iteration features a soft stretch lace bodice with modest bust support, creating a delicate and alluring silhouette. The semi-sheer, flowy skirt falls just below the hips, allowing for both comfort and a flirty look. Colors include: Blush, Ivory, Peri Frost and Silver. Available in sizes S-3X.
This Babydoll can be purchased separately or as a Set with the matching Lace Cheeky Panty. Pairing the Lace Cheeky Panty with the matching babydoll creates a coordinated and flattering ensemble that exudes confidence, sophistication and a bit of spice. This combination is perfect for special occasions or for simply adding a touch of glamour to everyday wear.
