Happy New Year, in Memory of the beautiful and practical long gone Night Gowns

A glorious morning, a peaceful morning, the kind of coffee scented mornings worth hundreds of crazy nights...

Window fully open, shades half down, clear cold breeze sweeping the smoke from my cigarette. The delicious morning cigarette mixing it's aroma with coffee and fainting scent of perfume.

The perfect moment to wish you all a very happy, healthy, prosperous, fulfilling, joyful new year !
Might happiness and tenderness never part from you!

Cold freezing breeze ? No I'm not cold. Yes I have a secret weapon. A long sky blue rayon nightgown.

Not even a "princess" Hollywood style one, just an ordinary vintage long nightgown.

The free flowing endless lightweight densely knit fabric feels like a caress.

A very efficient way to keep a boundary of air between the body and the chilling breeze.

Let the secret of long gone nightgowns from the past be revealed: -Despite being light and airy they keep warm.

The air they trap underneath in a very good heat insulation.

Pity they are not available anymore... We sure miss them.

    1. Thanks Hon, it's a very simple pattern. I love it so much...
      My idea is to reproduce it and make myself a new one since they are no more available.
      Hopefully one day ;)
