negligees
Silky bedroom attire
Negligees are women's lightweight, often sheer robes or nightgowns designed to be alluring rather than merely functional.
The word carries connotations of romantic or seductive loungewear: She slipped into a silk negligee.
The singular is negligee, from French for "neglected"—clothing for casual private moments rather than formal dress.
