Cosy nightwear, loungewear and robes that you won’t want to take off
Cold winter nights are perfect for cosy indulgence, great TV, and treats, all while wearing beautiful pyjamas and nightwear, layered under dressing gowns. Upgrade your bedtime wardrobe for an instant mood boost, better nighttime temperature regulation, and those lazy festive mornings when more people will see your PJs (you can even buy a set to match with your mini-me). Here’s the new-season nightwear that will elevate every bedtime.
Button-through pyjama sets
The biggest consideration with traditional PJs is whether you want a warm or breathable fabric. Brushed cotton scores highly for both, and we’ll always give extra points to any design featuring pockets.
Elevated jersey loungewear
Wth its super-soft, extra-long-sleeved designs that are perennially popular The White Company remains a standout brand. If you’re a cold sleeper, also look to styles that feature ribbed cuffs to prevent the arms from riding up.
Pure silk pyjamas
For warmer sleepers, a silk cami-and-shorts set is your year-round bedtime style. If you prefer something more substantial, a long-sleeved silk pyjama set feels hotel-level luxurious (especially one with piped details).
Thermal waffle or ribbed sets
For very nippy nights, or those who feel the cold, a thermal waffle or plush fleece pyjama set is the only way to go. Choose a roomy style that allows for free movement, and good luck convincing yourself to ever wear anything else.
Winter dressing gowns and plush robes
Proper lounging calls for layering pyjamas with robes and dressing gowns (or, whisper it, opting for a onesie). You’ll wonder how you ever coped without this level of cosy indulgence.
Winter pyjamas FAQs
What are the warmest pyjamas for women in winter?
Brushed cotton raises a soft, fluffy surface that insulates while remaining breathable. For freezing nights, heavy-duty fabrics, such as sherpa fleece or velour, are great options.
What should you wear to bed if you suffer from night sweats or hot flushes?
Lightweight, loose and breathable sleepwear that allows air to circulate and moisture to evaporate quickly is great – especially if you’re menopausal. Cotton, silk or linen blends are natural temperature-regulators, but avoid synthetics, such as polyester or nylon.
How should women's winter pyjamas fit?
Because winter sleepwear is designed to retain warmth, a relaxed, comfortable fit that allows complete freedom of movement, without being excessively baggy or restrictive, is ideal.
