This is an antique white cotton nightgown - a little difficult to date, but I think late 1910s or early 1920s. This antique white cotton nightgown has no closures and simply goes over the head. The upper bodice is decorated with embroidery in a floral design and the scoop neckline and arm openings are trimmed in lace. It is sleeveless and made in an above the knee length, which is why I believe that it is post-WWI.
