Today, I wore a dress that I bought last weekend to work, thinking how I liked it and it fitted me perfectly, until someone at work told me that I was actually wearing a nightie. FML

Hi yeah i know a lot of ya'll are thinking of how dumb am i to wear a nightie and not know the difference..for one thing, it was sold with other dresses and no it's not see through, it actually has an underskirt and the reason my colleague commented was due to the lacy neckline.. and i actually paired it off with a slacks and a cardigan, so no, i'm not working in a brothel though that made me LOL...people can have the silliest idea.. i'm still a bit convinced it's a dress, but nevertheless i'm not wearing it out any more.. cheers!

Just tell Victoria to keep it a secret. Maybe no one else will notice.

Eh the defining line between dress and nightgown gets a little blurry in some cases, just deny it or say it works as both and enjoy your new dress

How do you not notice your wearing a nightie?!?! It's a pretty obvious difference! Anyway who cares play it off!! You shoulda been like "no this is the new style, you should definitely get one!"

You can't be that obtuse can you? You couldn't tell by the cut, material, embellishments or the section of the store it came from?

Except not all nighties have specific embellishments or material that show it's a nightie. And if the OP's nightie was in the wrong section or on a sales rack, then it could have been sold with everyday clothing. Seriously, just google "nightie" and you'll see how a nightie can be mistaken for a dress. They aren't all silky and lacey.
