WIND DOWN

Our guide to stylish sleepwear that feels easy like Sunday morning.

Nightwear and lingerie rarely get the respect and attention they deserve. Even with restrictions lifting, we still spend about a third of our lives in bed so it makes sense to have a well-thought-out sleepwear repertoire. And good lingerie really is the foundation of every outfit. Thankfully, new season styles and show-stopping prints are putting both of these categories finally back on the agenda.

From sophisticated pyjama sets to wear on and off your couch, elegant silk robes that help you channel your inner Ava Gardner to foundation garments and statement lingerie that will bring you confidence, these styles and sets are tactile, functional and flattering.

THE COVER-UP

Keeping a silky, slinky robe around the house is one of the easiest ways to feel like you're at the spa without having to shell out for a top-notch facial. Comfortable and a little frou-frou, they're a fun swap from the sweatshirt and leggings that might typically make up your weekend (or work from home) wardrobe. This Peignoir Printed Robe from Bernadette in seductive black is spun from lustrous silk for ultimate comfort. The perfect piece to throw on over something special. Or, for maximum comfort, why not pair your luxe robe with matching pyjama bottoms as seen above with this Eres Floral silk set.

THE MATCHING SET

Marloes Haedeman, the founder of Love Stories, says that wearing one of the label’s bras is like “a holiday for your boobs” (and that sounds pretty good to us). The contrasting textures of the Love Lace bralette are each equally lustrous – a silky-smooth woven fabric trimmed with fluttering lace – and cut into a soft triangle shape that’s enduringly comfortable. Meanwhile, proving that comfort and sexy are not mutually exclusive, ex-lingerie buyer, Georgia Larsen noticed a lack of comfortable, everyday options and too many quiet, neutral shades. Her namesake line, Dora Larsen is defined by soft, supportive styles in vibrant, unexpected colours – just like this orange lace underwire bra and high-waisted briefs set.

THE WEAR ANYWHERE PAIR

Some sleepwear is just too good not to show off. Just look at Ukrainian nightwear label, Sleeper, for proof. Specialising in nightwear that you can wear in and out of the house, the Lurex lounging set is crafted from a metallic stretch-knit for ultimate comfort. All this set is missing is a pair of slingback heels. Or, look to Sleeping with Jacques. Their Bon Vivant velvet robe and trousers blends masculine tailoring with luxury comfort that will help you remain stylish at all hours.

THE COLOUR POP

Whether you’re someone who loves colour or prefers to blend monochromatic tones, there’s one trend that is proving popular amongst both camps: blue. For those who love to clash with flare, these Dora Larsen lace bralette and matching briefs feature powder blue delicate lace with a baby pink stretch tulle to bring a playful energy. Fans of tonal matching will favour this navy moulded bra and matching brief set from Wacoal, paired with a beautiful Olivia Von Halle silk robe for a paired-back yet elegant look.

THE PLAYFUL PATTERN

Florals don't just have to be limited to summer fashion - in fact, bright florals can be worn to bed. Bringing the same sense of joy and happiness that florals do to your wardrobe, this playful pattern makes dressing for bed all the more fun. And when it comes to pretty florals, no one does it better than Bernadette. Whether adorned on one of their luxurious robes or on a matching set of silk pyjamas, these delicate prints are hand-drawn by co-founder Charlotte de Geyter in the brand's Antwerp studio for an extra-special touch.
