Luxury Nightgowns and Robes – Why Fabric is Key
There’s something about silk which makes it a luxury fabric, and of course it feels fabulous close to the skin. Sadly a lot of people steer clear of silk in the belief that it is difficult to care for, which these days is not always the case. Many modern silks, including those we use, are [...]
Nightgowns and Why The Right Fabric is the Secret.
The best way to choose a see-through nightgown online is to pay little attention to the picture. The name of the textile used is generally more useful. Chiffon is one of the most commonly used sheer fabrics, as are georgette, tulle, double georgette and organza. Lace can be quite revealing depending on the pattern, and [...]
Nightgowns – Can They Improve Your Sex Life?
In a word, yes. A nightgown can be anything, from a simple cotton shift to a few patches of lace, a wisp of lace and a ribbon. It can be modest or revealing, sophisticated or sluttish, silk or cotton, long or short. The word nightgown covers a huge spectrum of very different garments, but there’s [...]
When Is A Peignoir Set Like A Pizza?
until around hundred years ago, if you bought new clothes, they were always custom made. Custom made was normal. Most women not only had a dressmaker they were capable of making their own clothes. If you were rich then it was always the dressmaker, and the result was two fold.

1. Clothes used to fit.

2. There were no standard sizes.
What? No Nightgown?
Those of us who have passed the first flush of youth, and I must include myself here, may find ourselves occasionally frustrated by the cult of the young. Fashion seems to be designed with the young in mind, both in terms of design and in terms of size. Style, however is something we ladies of [...]

The Importance of Nightgowns
It’s no coincidence that when a woman dumps a man or becomes a dumpee, she often heads straight for the hairdresser. A new look is in order. Self esteem is at stake and confidence is the key to recovery. But there are times in life when confidence slips, just a little, and you’re not aware [...]
You Asked For It – Our New Bridal Nightgown
Today we’ve just finished adding our new ‘sunshine’ collection to the website, and part of that is a our new bridal nightgown set, Barefoot Bride. Consisting of a chiffon nightgown with tiny lace underlay, the chiffon is layered but still very revealing, fluttering, feminine but very sexy and designed for the bride who knows what she wants, and how to get it.
Getting a Little Lost
The Finale of LOST was so disappointing that it seems wrong to write about it. But here goes.
How to Choose Lingerie – Cotton or Silk?
It’s an easy choice, or so most people think. Cotton is cheap, practical and every day. Silk is for special occasions, it’s delicate, sensuous and definitely dangerous. Almost opposites. So you’d probably be surprised if I told you that cotton is often the more expensive of the two, and when it comes to strength, silk usually wins hands down.

Certain Style Cottons On

May 032010

The last three months have been a bit of a whirlwind here at Certain Style with many new ideas and directions for us. Today though is an especially big day; you asked for a more affordable range of everyday nightwear, and we have done our best to find just that.

Our new range is made from 100% cotton, a lovely summery print that’s floral and flirty. We’re frilled!

The range consists of a cotton nightgown and cotton pajamas (available separately as a camisole top and capri pants. Over the next few days we’ll be adding a matching lingerie set, also in pure cotton.

Of course there’s cotton and there’s cotton. Take our lovely maternity nightgown ‘lady in waiting’ for example. Made from polyester cotton, the fabric is very practical, just what an about to be or new Mom needs. The feel of the fabric is soft but crisp.

With the new range, designer Catherine Fritsch has shown her usual genius, combining detailed design with the softest most luxurious cotton lawn to create something which fulfills out major criteria, it looks good AND it feel fantastic. The attention to detail in the cotton nightgown is quite amazing – personally, I’d wear it as a dress, so please check out our new cotton sleepwear section and leave a comment so we know what you think.

PS. At only $37 the nightgown is incredibly affordable, so do stop by and take a look!

Plus Size Pajamas - Should Glamor or Comfort come first?

Nightgown Things, Plus Size No Responses »

Nov 082009

When you buy pajamas, how do you make your decision? Are you looking for something loose, something environmentally friendly, a fun design? Do you want something glamorous to sip your martini in, or something comfortable to watch your favorite film in? Is it possible to have both?
For me, comfort is all important, but you can have glamor AND comfort in one pajama set.
Take a look at the picture and you’ll see what I mean.
Our brand new pajama design (it doesn’t even have a name yet) is made from bamboo jersey. It’s incredibly soft and comfortable as well as being ‘green’. Wide legged pants and a simple ‘A’ line top aren’t too special by themselves, but add the sleeveless jacket with it’s beaded yoke and you have something that’s comfortable AND just a little glamorous. Plus size or petite, it’s available in your size!
