Dress Over Night dress - Red Ribbed Dress From Atmosphere

 Have you ever needed to dress in a hurry? To answer the door of a hotel bedroom, or home, in the morning? After taking an afternoon nap? When called to breakfast or a meal.

How to dress quickly? Find a high neck long dress. One which is loose or stretchy. Put it on over your night dress. Now you look respectable. Just add shoes.

You may want to have a quick wash, rather than stopping for a shower. A quick all over wash can be done in several stages, as you have time.

You might wash and add clean underwear after answering the call to the door.

You can put a scarf around the neckline.

You can shower later and change back into the dress which has already been seen. 

I used to take off my night dress and pull on a caftan. But putting the caftan over the night dress works well if you have even less time.

You can then take off the dress and you are back in your night dress to continue sleeping, if you are jet-lagged.

It also provides an easy way to appear to be dressed quickly, temporarily. And to get back into bed again with less effort when you are tired because you are not feeling bright. For example. if you have flu, or are an invalid, or have traveller's tummy, or are changing time zones.

Travel Light

This is another way to travel light for a weekend away. Or if your airline restricts luggage. Or if you want to be sure to have clothes for night and day if your luggage is lost, or you have to evacuate the plane leaving behind the luggage.
