Long Flannel Nightgown Saratoga Blue Plaid
Pickup available at High Street (Downtown Edmonton)
Usually ready in 24 hours
The kind of nightgown that makes you feel like you're in a novel. April Cornell's Saratoga Nightgown is a full-length brushed cotton plaid in a deep blue-green colourway — the Saratoga Blue Plaid that photographs like a painting and feels like the best version of being cosy. Pintuck pleats at the bodice, a ruffled collar, chalk buttons down the front, and side seam pockets that are deeper and more useful than anything a nightgown has any right to offer. 48" long on a 5'7" model in a Small, so it's a proper floor-grazing nightgown on most heights.
April Cornell has been making heirloom-inspired cotton clothing since 1972 — the brand that built a following on the kind of floral and plaid cotton pieces that feel timeless rather than trendy. This nightgown is a very good example of what they do best.

Good to Know
What does brushed cotton plaid feel like?
Softer than regular cotton weave — the brushing raises the surface fibres slightly, giving it a warm, slightly flannel-adjacent feel without the full weight of flannel. It's breathable and gets better with washing. The deep blue-green plaid has a richness that photographs particularly well and holds its colour through repeated washing when cared for correctly.
Why hang to dry?
April Cornell's brushed cotton holds its shape and colour best with hang drying — tumble drying can cause shrinkage and may affect the pintuck pleating and the ruffle collar detail over time. Worth the extra step for a nightgown at this price point.
Is this a good gift?
One of the most beautiful gifting pieces we carry — the full-length format, the ruffled collar, and the chalk buttons make it feel like a real heirloom rather than a functional garment. Strong for anyone who loves cotton, classic design, and the kind of nightgown that makes going to bed feel like a ritual rather than a routine. The pockets are genuinely a bonus.
Does the plaid run large or small?
True to size — the model is wearing a Small at 5'7" and the gown hits the floor. If you're between sizes and prefer a more relaxed fit through the body, size up. The full-length format means height matters more than width for fit perception.
