Thank you Brooklinen for sponsoring this video!

We know what upper and middleclass Victorians in particular wore during the day and evening, but seldom is it discussed what historical fashion Victorians wore to bed.

In this video, I walk you through some of the nighttime clothing practices of primarily middle and upperclass Victorians, as well as show a very special item from my antique clothing collection, a wedding nightgown from about 1875.
