Pyjamas
Cosy in bed, cosy on the couch, preferably all day long: pyjamas are the perfect loungewear for winter. What does the two-piece set need to protect you perfectly against the cold and how do you find your favourite to relax in? Here are the ultimate pyjama tips!
Why do we wear pyjamas?
The word pyjama comes from Persian and the garment was brought to Europe by the British. Pyjamas have a long history, as their benefits have always been obvious: they protect the body from cooling down while you sleep, wick moisture away from the body and signal to your head that it's time to relax.
Pyjamas for every season
In winter, cosy velvety, fluffy or woven flannel fabrics can be extra-warm and keep out the cold. For pjs that are good at regulating the body climate while you sleep - it is best to opt for a high cotton content. The natural fibre allows the body to breathe and forms a thermal cushion. Pyjamas made from cosy plush are ideal for lounging.
What fit pjs?
When choosing pyjamas it's best to opt for comfortable fasteners, or an elasticated waistbands and ties. The fit is relaxed, the cuts are comfortable and you can mix and match your loungewear to your heart's content. From sweatshirt styles to elegant pyjama shirts its best to opt for pyjamas that cover your arms and legs.
How to wash your pyjamas
Take care to look at the laundry label. Low temperatures are usually sufficient. A gentle cycle in the tumble dryer is a good idea for all pyjamas made from a fluffy material, and you should always use fabric softener sparingly. Classic pyjama two-pieces consisting of a top and trousers dry best when lying down. The fibres can warp on a hanger.
