The Nightie, The Only Dress You Need This Summer

All I want to wear during this heatwave is a nightie dress, minimal effort and super chic.

Lightweight pieces I can throw on and add my favourite accessories – ballet pumps and a leather bag – is what I have been reaching for this summer.

The nightie dress has been the obvious choice for many an occasion, summer in the city vibes with minimal effort. Look to brands like Doen, Faithfull and Cou Cou Intimates for dresses you can wear now, pack for your next trip and bring out again next summer. Jane Birkin’s iconic nightie dress is timeless.
