Jr. Baby doll T- Shirt: A babydoll is a short nightgown or negligee intended as nightwear for women.
The garment is often trimmed with lace, ruffles, appliques, Marabou fur, bows and ribbons, optionally
with spaghetti straps. Sometimes it is made of sheer or translucent fabric like nylon or chiffon or silk. The
garment's hemline is usually about six inches above the knee like a minidress and may have a
scoop-neck. They are usually considered provocative. It is said the name was popularized by the 1956
movie Baby Doll starring Carroll Baker in the title role, which essentially marked the beginning...

of the enduring popularity of the style for adults. At the same time, new
synthetic fabrics and boutique retailing made the form both affordable
and easy to purchase.
Short daywear dresses of a similar style are sometimes called babydoll
dresses; the name is sometimes two words, baby doll, and sometimes
hyphenated, baby-doll. Some styles are similar to what is worn by dolls in
the form of infants, and by some infants; the gown is short enough that
diapers are easily changed. Thus, it is a common garment for those who
indulge in sexualized play-acting around ideas of infantilism. However,
there may be an alternative origin for the style, if we consider the lineage
of lace-trimmed shortie bed-jackets and bed-capes of the 1930s and
1940s.
It is now a highly eroticized item of adult apparel, often classified as a
form of lingerie. When worn by an adult woman there is great contrast to
when worn by an infant; the legs are fully displayed and some styles
emphasize or deliberately expose the breasts as well. The gown is often
sold as a set with matching panties (UK - knickers) as a typical babydoll is
short enough that underwear is visible if worn . Styles of the same
general length but not intended to emphasize sex appeal are sometimes
called shortie nightgowns.
Babydolls are now available in a sufficiently wide variety of styles that
many lingerie retailers consider babydolls a distinct department. Modern
babydolls often vary considerably from the styles of the 1960s and
1970s. Baby doll negligees from the 1950s to the early 1980s are now
collectible items.
Some babydolls open up in front and resemble more of a robe or peignoir.
Another type of Babydoll is the Babydoll T-Shirt, which is a form-fitting
ladies t-shirt with cap sleeves.
A provocative Babydoll is called the "Fembot" which is made up of a
marabou clad bralette with pleated chiffon for skirt and marabou strip for
hemline. It got its name from the movie Austin Powers: International Man
of Mystery, where feminine robot androids wear such Babydoll
nightgowns.
