Bethenny Frankel Reveals Her ‘Not Sexy’ Bedtime Nightgown
Bethenny Frankel prioritizes comfort.
The 55-year-old showcased her sleepwear by taking a mirror selfie. In the Instagram photo posted on Tuesday, January 13, the former star of Real Housewives of New York City donned a soft pink, ankle-length nightgown with a scoop neck, short sleeves, and a flowing, pleated skirt, adorned with charming prints of pumpkins, brooms, and witch hats.
No outfit is truly complete for Frankel without accessories. She adorned her look with several gold rings, including a diamond ring, a chunky gold piece, and a stylish necklace. To cap it off, she slipped on pastel slippers embellished with a silk bow.
In the photo, she went makeup-free, highlighting her clear complexion and rosy cheeks, while her brunette hair was casually flipped to one side.
“It’s not Halloween 🎃,” she captioned the image. “And I’m not bringing sexy back anytime soon… but if loving a nightgown is wrong, then I don’t wanna be right.”
Although she may not be turning up the heat right now, Frankel brought the drama during Miami Swim Week in June 2025, where she strutted down the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit runway. For the event, she wore a hot pink polka dot Toxic Sadie ensemble featuring a scoop neck top with black spots, paired with high-cut bottoms adorned with black rings on her hips and a G-string back.
Additionally, she sported a sizzling Norma Kamali one-piece that showcased a plunging neckline, complete with an all-over leopard print design and a cheeky back.
Frankel also flaunted her Western style in a denim two-piece set, featuring a light-wash top and darker, form-fitting bottoms. She completed the look with a black cowgirl hat accented with silver details.
She ensured her glam was impeccable with dewy skin, sculpted and flushed cheeks, brown eyeshadow, and long lashes. Her highlighted hair was parted down the middle and styled in glamorous curls.
After the show, Frankel shared her thoughts exclusively with Us Weekly regarding her viral swimsuit designs.
“I had a clear vision of what I wanted,” she explained in June 2025. “I said, ‘I don’t want to wear a basic bathing suit. I aimed to find pieces that truly come alive when worn.” Following her fittings with the SI Swimsuits stylists, they playfully handed her what resembled “a piece of string” for her to try on.
“You could hear laughter coming from outside [the changing room],” she remembered telling Us. “I thought, ‘Sure, why not do this for fun.’”
Once she put the number on, she immediately felt it would “transform [her] life.” Frankel also mentioned her desire to keep two of her outfit pieces.
“I’m actually waiting for my one-piece and I would love to keep the polka dot set as well,” she told Us, playfully adding, “Who else is going to wear it? It’s been in my vagina. Maybe I should sell it on eBay.”
