I really like the long, old fashioned, feminine nightgowns the girls wear in "Little Women." Where can I get one?

I swear I was born many many years too late. Love all the old style cloths.

I adore Lanz of Salzburg nightgowns. My husband swears I am the only woman alive who still wears them.

I make Civil War nightgowns for a store in Gettysburg Pa (the Civil Affair) they have tons of them from so many local seamstresses.

Emily, went to your web address to check out all the patterns and it's down. Is there another address or site I could visit to see your work?

Oh I've been checking out the websites you ladies mentioned, Thank you! I'm saving these sites for when I have some extra cash.

Kathy & Sherry VermontCountryStore.com is just a tad bit awesome! There is more than one nightgown I want from them, winter and summer gowns...oh my!

I, too think I was born in the wrong era!! Vintage\victorian all the way! My mom calls me a hopeless romantic. :-) Catherine, I just looked at the Victorian Trading Co....wow! I'll have to forward that site to my fellow romantics (most of my friends are)...:-) Thanks, ladies for all the nightgown info!

I love these nightgowns, too, and mine is almost threadbare......I am going to research some of your sources. My last one came Vermont Country Store. It is labeled Past Times. I love it so much!!!!
