This Ivy nightgown was made by hand in Auckland, cut from a soft champagne fabric that falls in a single unbroken line from the bust to the floor. A wide band of ivory lace sits across the bodice, framing the neckline at both the front and the back. Fine straps secure the top. Below the waist, a slim self tie sits at the waist, sitting over the elasticated waistband that gathers the fabric gently before it falls away into a long, floor length skirt.

The gathered waist and tie give a defined line through the middle. The lace trim sits high with the thin straps skimming the shoulder, and the floor length hem means the fabric moves as you walk.
