What is the difference between a negligee and a babydoll?

A negligee is a broad term for sheer or semi-sheer sleepwear designed to be both comfortable and visually appealing. A babydoll is a specific style within that category, short, flared, and typically ending above the thigh, often sold with a matching brief. All babydolls are negligees, but not all negligees are babydolls. Chemises and longer nightgown styles also fall under the negligee umbrella.

How do I choose the right size in a negligee?

Focus on the bust measurement first, since most negligee styles are fitted at the chest and loose below. If you're between sizes, go up rather than down, a negligee that's slightly too large still drapes well, while one that's too tight across the chest loses its shape entirely. Check the size guide on each product, as sizing varies between brands and styles.

Can negligees be worn as actual sleepwear?

Yes, many styles are genuinely comfortable for sleeping. Chemise cuts in modal or microfibre are the most practical for all-night wear. Heavily laced babydoll styles are less suited to sleeping in, the lace can be uncomfortable against the skin over several hours. If wearability as sleepwear is a priority, look for pieces described as soft or stretch fabric rather than rigid lace.

How should I wash a lace negligee?

Hand washing in cool water with a mild detergent is the safest method. If you use a washing machine, place the piece inside a mesh laundry bag and use a cold delicates cycle. Never tumble dry, heat damages lace and satin finishes quickly. Press out excess water gently and lay flat or hang to dry away from direct sunlight or radiators.

Is delivery discreet when ordering lingerie online?

Yes. Orders from Mshop are shipped in plain, unmarked packaging with no indication of the contents on the outside. The sender name on the package does not reference the store or its product category, so your order arrives privately regardless of who collects it.
