Regardless of your personal clothing style on a day-to-day basis, there’s something so comforting about slipping into some nightwear at the end of a long day. 

The best part about nightwear is that there are so many amazing brands and styles out there to decide between, to the point where you are often spoilt for choice. Seriously, it can be really overwhelming trying to narrow down your favorites!

But if you have yet to find your favorite snuggly sleepwear set, don’t worry, we’re here to point you in the right direction! Here are some of the most stylish, practical, and gorgeous types of nightwear around.

Long Pajama Set

We’ll begin with the classic pajama set. These might be some of the most commonly worn and most comfortable types of nightwear out there and can be found in nearly every woman’s wardrobe.

The soft cotton pants in a pair of womens pajamas are often accompanied by versatile fitting shirts such as nightshirts or tank tops to finalize the set, but you can also mix and match to create a unique-looking pair of pajamas.

Short Pajama Set

Similarly, you could even invest in a short pajama set. These are perfect for the summer months as they highlight the allure of pajamas while providing a little bit of a fashionable edge.

You can opt for soft cotton shorts paired with a just as comfortable tee, or you can change things up a bit with a pair of lace shorts. Whatever your body type and nightwear preference, there’s a perfect set of short pajamas out there for you to try.

Sleep Shirt

If you’re experiencing a night of extreme humidity and can’t stand the feel of anything on your legs, or are simply too tired to stop and put a full set of pajamas on, you might want to reach for a sleep shirt. 

This type of nightwear is easy and breezy and is an incredible choice in such weather conditions as it can keep you feeling cool and relaxed all night long.

Like pajama sets, sleep shirts come in various styles. You can accentuate your style by opting for long or short sleeves depending on your preference, and can also choose from a wide variety of designs from a delicate floral print to a bold color.

Nightgown

Do you want some nightwear that looks and feels a little more old-school? You should try a nightgown! This fashionable (and extremely comfortable, may we add) style remains a staple part of the nighttime routine for many women everywhere.

Nowadays these delightful gowns come in so many bold and beautiful designs that it can often be difficult to narrow down your favorites. You can opt for a single color or for your favorite polka dot pattern — whatever best suits your taste. 

You could even invest in a feminine yet modest satin nightgown that glides over your skin. This will immediately create a more sultry look.

Chemise

Chemises add a touch of femininity to your nightwear collection. They are soft, sensual, and comfortable which makes them a brilliant addition to any woman’s wardrobe. A chemise will typically hit anywhere between your mid-thigh and knee.

A chemise is a flattering design that is typically made from tailored satin fabric. It is quite a flowy type of nightwear which allows it to gently glide over your body as you rest. It’s easy to slip in and out of a chemise which just adds to the overall comfort level of this particular nightwear.

There are many designs and styles to choose from to suit your body.

Babydoll

If you’re feeling bold and want to enhance your allure then a babydoll might be exactly what you need.

Babydolls are great for making special occasions memorable, including anniversaries or your first wedding night. They are similar to a chemise but fall a lot shorter (usually no longer than mid-thigh) and are also entirely sheer, adding an air of temptation not offered by other types of nightwear.

These short nightgowns are made with translucent fabric such as chiffon or nylon and are usually trimmed with ribbons, lace, bows, and ruffles. They also often come with spaghetti straps.

Summary 

These are some of the best types of nightwear for women. Each style offers something unique for the season and for the individual choosing to wear it. Take your preferences into consideration and you should have little to no trouble finding the perfect nightwear to suit your every need.
