Why What You Wear to Bed Matters More Than You Think
We spend around a third of our lives asleep, yet how much thought do we really give to what we wear while we're doing it?
Your bed might have the perfect pillows, freshly washed sheets and the softest duvet, but if you're wearing pyjamas that are too hot, restrictive or uncomfortable, you're missing a pretty important part of the sleep equation. Because what you wear to bed matters.
Comfort comes first
The best pyjamas are the ones you barely notice you're wearing.
Your sleepwear should feel soft against your skin, allow you to move freely and never feel restrictive while you're sleeping.
There's something about changing into a beautiful pair of pyjamas at the end of the day that instantly signals: it's time to switch off. It's a small ritual, but one that can make your evening feel completely different.
The importance of temperature
Ever woken up in the middle of the night feeling far too hot? Your sleepwear could be part of the problem.
Choosing lightweight, breathable fabrics can help you feel more comfortable throughout the night, particularly if you're someone who naturally sleeps warm.
This is one of the reasons bamboo has become such a favourite for sleepwear. It's incredibly soft and lightweight, with naturally breathable and temperature-regulating properties. Less overheating. More comfort.
Your pyjamas shouldn't just be practical
We think there's a difference between getting ready for bed and simply putting on something to sleep in.
A beautiful pair of pyjamas can turn your evening into a ritual. Hair tied back. Skincare done. Phone away & Pyjamas on. It's a small moment of self-care that says the day is officially over. And perhaps that's why we love pyjamas so much at PLUSH. They're an everyday essential, but that doesn't mean they have to feel ordinary.
Think about the fabric
When choosing your next pair of pyjamas, consider how the fabric feels against your skin.
Look for something:
- Soft and lightweight
- Breathable
- Comfortable to move in
- Suitable for your sleeping temperature
- Easy to care for
- Beautiful enough that you actually look forward to putting it on
So, does what you wear to bed really matter?
Well, we think so. Not because your pyjamas are going to magically transform your sleep, but because comfort, temperature and how you feel at bedtime all contribute to the experience of winding down.
And don't forget your pillowcase
Your pyjamas aren't the only thing your skin and hair come into contact with while you sleep. Your pillowcase matters too.
A silky pillowcase is one of those small bedroom upgrades that feels instantly luxurious. Smooth against the skin and gentle on your hair, silk creates a beautifully soft surface to sleep on, while also bringing that little touch of everyday indulgence to your bedtime routine. They also make for a gorgeous gift for someone you love.
Unlike traditional cotton pillowcases, silk has a naturally smooth texture, which can help reduce friction against your skin and hair as you move during the night. Improving skin texture, wrinkles and puffiness in the mornings.
And, of course, there's the feeling. Fresh sheets, a soft duvet, your favourite pyjamas and a cool silk pillowcase underneath you, suddenly bedtime feels less like the end of the day and more like a ritual you actually look forward to. Because luxury doesn't always have to be extravagant. Sometimes, it's simply what you sleep on or in.
