As a stylist and someone who works in fashion, part of me enjoys getting all dressed up in elaborate outfits. But on days when I work from home, writing celebrity news stories and shopping articles from my couch, my clothes tend to be on the comfier side. I much prefer to slip on matching sweat sets and the softest pajamas, and in recent months, I even added cute nightgowns into my regular rotation.

Although I wore my fair share of nightgowns while growing up in the ‘90s (usually ones with a Disney princess theme), this loungewear option has seen a major update. The best nightgowns for 2026 include fun details like feathers or prints and feel a lot more like casual slip dresses. They’re comfy while still being cute enough to wear outside of the house, too. In fact, many of my favorite nightgowns make the perfect outfit for a casual day of running errands.

Ahead, I’ve rounded up the best nightgowns for 2026, which I believe deserve a spot in your wardrobe.
