Please Bring Babydolls Back, My Favourite

My favorite type of women’s fashion, and one I personally love to wear, are babydoll dresses. Babydoll dresses were brought to the mainstream in the ’90s by women like Courtney Love and other female musicians in the Riot Grrl and Grunge movement. Elegance mixed with a bit of naughtiness. You could even carry a nice clutch bag with one to mix things up. Babydolls breach the line between feminine and edgy. Wearing a babydoll gives a woman the liberty to embrace her sexuality and empowerment. When paired with the proper accessories, they make for interesting outfits. Though, sans accessories, babydoll negligees can be mistaken for lingerie. I usually prefer to pair mine with boots and chunky jewelry. I often wear them with fishnet stockings and a leather jacket when it is a bit more chilly outside. To keep up the edgy persona, I like to match my makeup as well. In the spirit of Courtney Love, babydolls are best worn with dark or gothic makeup, also to give off a Lolita impression.
