The Best Nap Dresses to Add to Your Quarantine Wardrobe

Call me “cottagecore” all you want, but put me in a nightgown and play Taylor Swift in the background, and I’m a happy gal. During these past new months of quarantine, I’ve grown bored of my leggings and sweater wardrobe and my sweatpants have officially gone threadbare, so this winter, I’ve leveled up to the “nap dress,” aka the thing that everyone seems to be wearing nowadays. And when it comes to finding the perfect “nap dress,” the key is looking for a fit that is soft enough to go to bed in, but is still stylish enough to garner some “ooohs” and “aaahs” on a morning Zoom call or pair with some boots and a puffer for a quick grocery run. Here are 6 best nap dresses that you’ll want to to sleep, snack, Zoom, and dance around your bedrooms in all season.

1. Sleeper Brigitte Linen Maxi Dress, $290

This flowy frock has total ready-to-prance-through-a-meadow-vibes. The puffed sleeves, ruffled hem, and tie at the waist make it stylish enough to wear out to brunch with a cardigan or leather jacket, but the sheer, linen fabric makes it perfect for couch lounging too.
