Throughout the year, temperatures will change sometimes making it difficult to settle into bed in the evening. The best fabric for your pyjamas is heavily dependent on the temperatures your body is exposed to, as well as what you actually feel comfortable in.
Today we will share with you our top picks for pyjamas for spring, summer, autumn and winter.
Fabrics Ideal for Spring and Summer
A sleeveless top paired with shorts or cropped bottoms are always a good choice for your nightwear in the warmer months. Key fabrics for spring and summer are those that are lightweight and breathable. So what materials do we recommend?
Silk
As a very versatile fabric, silk can be ideal all year round for an array of clothing pieces – nightwear included. As silk is a temperature regulator, it does a great job of keeping you cool in summer but also warm in winter. Although of the lightweight variety, fabric makers are capable of making heavy silks. Different weaves of silk will contribute to the overall weight of the silk. As a spring/summer pyjama set, we recommend Jasmine Silk’s own camisoles and french style boxers.
Linen
Known for being a staple material for summer, linen is a lightweight yet durable choice for pyjamas. Being 2-3 times stronger than cotton, linen allows for optimum breathability and you are said to perspire 15 times less than being in silk or cotton. Perfect for sleeping in!
Cotton
Being a natural fibre, cotton is a great choice for your summer nightwear. Not only does it prevent heat from being trapped against your skin, but cotton is also very low maintenance. As the fabric doesn’t retain odours like oil-based fabrics do, you will not have to wash your garments as often. When it does come to washing, there aren’t any specific requirements for cotton so it is safe to use your washing machine as normal.
What to Wrap up in During Autumn and Winter
The colder months, on the other hand, usually require longer and thicker layers to remain comfortable through the nights. You want to be on the lookout for denser or thicker materials that will retain your body heat and keep you cosy.
Silk
As mentioned before, silk is such a functional fabric that is appropriate for sleeping in all-year round. During the winter, you may choose to invest in a full-length pyjama set so that you’re covered up and the silk can fully work its magic. Our pure silk pyjama sets are the perfect addition to your nightwear collection, especially during autumn or winter.
Wool
If you’re someone that enjoys being extra cosy in your bed, don’t be too quick to dismiss wool for your pyjamas. Not only is wool an eco-friendly choice, but it is also naturally anti-static meaning it isn’t likely to attract dirt, keeping your pyjamas cleaner for longer.
Polar Fleece
For pyjamas that are comfortable, soft and warm, fleece pyjamas are the ones for you. For winter especially, fleece pyjamas offer a lot of comfort and will be a winner when it comes to winding down before bedtime. Polar fleece is derived from polyester and can found for affordable prices in a lot of places.
