At the turn of the 19th century, nightgowns began to reflect the elaborate and stately fashions worn by Edwardian ladies during the day. This beautiful nightdress was hand made in 1909 and would have seemed almost as magnificent as the teagown worn by its owner at refined afternoon gatherings.

The back length of this dress would suggest that the woman who wore it was quite petite.
