negligee

For example, take the well-known portrait of the woman in the silk-and-lace negligée that is inexplicably missing one strap.

Madeline Spencer, in a shimmering white negligée, was standing in the doorway.

In your negligée you looked like a humming bird and I do not know your real name, so may I call you this?

Certainly, the negligée is distractingly pretty, and I am proud of Father's dress instinct.

Friday last, at exactly three, Sarah arrayed me as a lily of the field in a glorified turquoise and mauve negligée.

But this negligée is not unusual; it is one of her favorites.
