Maison Fauve - Blush Songe Pyjamas
About the Blush Songe Pyjamas
This is a gorgeous sleepwear ensemble, but it also happens to work double-time as a pair of pull-on shorts and an elegant camisole top. The little shorts are quick to sew, and so comfy you'll never want to take them off. The Songe shorts are available in 2 versions: with or without an Italian pocket. The waist is not fully elasticated so there is no volume of fabric gathered on the stomach.
The Blush camisole has a wide and elegant V neckline and could be work with a bra as you can adjust the strap to your desired width. Even on its own, this cami is the perfect go-anywhere top that's great under a cardigan or worn with a loose sweater. You might also like to try a longer length and create a slip dress.
