Pajamas - for absolute comfort

Pajamas today are much more than a sleeping shirt or underwear. This is an independent format of home clothes, in which it is convenient to sleep, spend time in the apartment and on vacation.

Modern pajamas not only provide comfort during sleep, their practicality allows them to be used in the most unexpected situations. Many famous designers and couturiers do not miss the opportunity to include in their fresh collections a couple of defiant masterpieces that combine the luxurious silhouette of an evening dress with the practicality and comfort of pajamas.

The variety of styles and models of pajamas allows you to choose from pajamas-overalls and separate options. In the latter case, you can easily combine the top and bottom by combining the elements of several sets.

Like many other attributes of a pampered life, full of leisurely and comfort, pajamas appeared in the East. This familiar term owes its origin to the Persian phrase, which can be translated as "clothes for the feet." In its original version, the pajamas were loose-fitting pants that were laced up at the waist. In this form, this garment became widespread throughout Western and South Asia.

Pajamas came to Europe with the beginning of the colonial expansion begun in the 18th century by the British in India. In the second half of the 19th century, pajamas became a favorite suit for sleeping and relaxing for the male half of the European population.Pajamas for women came into common use with the advent of trousers for ladies.

Unlike men's pajamas, all variations of which have long been frozen on the canonical combination of top and bottom proportions, women's models are represented by a wide variety of styles and lengths.

If you systematize the entire range of pajamas for beautiful ladies, there are three broad categories:

A loose-fitting shirt with long sleeves (sometimes variations in length from 3/4 to 7/8 are allowed) complete with loose and light trousers that extend to the top of the foot (this length is sometimes called "under the bone").

It differs from the previous variation in the shortened length of the pants - just below the knees, which makes them similar to breeches, and a short shirt: from a three-quarter sleeve to a T-shirt format.

The classic bottom is transformed into the most comfortable shorts, and the shirt is replaced by a T-shirt with an arbitrary shoulder width and sleeves that do not reach the elbow or even have straps.

Pajamas in the first category are suitable for any season. They are not hot on sweltering summer nights, and just as cozy and warm throughout the winter. Lightweight models fit perfectly into the off-season, they will be comfortable in them even on a cool night at the beginning or at the very end of summer.

Fashion does not stand still - and every year new variations on the theme of pajamas appear at the services of girls. Departure from the classic canon "shirt plus pants" led to the popularity of pajamas-dresses and overalls, in which the top and bottom are not separated, but can be on different types of fasteners: buttons, buttons or zippers.

Moreover, in the adult pajamas market nowadays it is impossible to surprise anyone with the most unusual models. Kigurumi - sleep suits, invented in Japan, are rapidly coming into use. Kigurumi was originally conceived as a hooded pajama jumpsuit that mimics the look of a popular cartoon character or cute animal.

Of course, the first kigurumi models were stylized after the iconic characters of Japanese animation - Pokemon Pikachu or the guardian spirit of the forest Totoro - a funny mixture of a cat, a dog and an owl.

With the triumphant arrival of kigurumi on the shelves of stores in Europe and the United States, variations on the theme of characters in Tim Burton's paintings have been added to the costumes that personify anime heroes - girls willingly don black pajamas with bones and skulls not only for Halloween.

In addition to cartoon heroes, real representatives of the animal world, both peaceful and predatory: foxes, giraffes, tiger cubs, raccoons and bunnies, often become a source of inspiration for kigurumi designers. Such pajamas-overalls, in addition to the hood, stylized under the face of an animal, also receive decorative ears and even a tail of the corresponding shape.

Additional confirmation that pajamas have long outgrown the boring, highly specialized niche of sleepwear is the fact that many pajamas (both separate and overalls) are increasingly equipped with pockets that are convenient to put all sorts of household items, if you just woke up, but take your time to take off your cozy pajamas.

On summer nights and in the winter cold, one sleeps differently. Therefore, clothes for sleeping for each season are selected special. For the winter, you can stock up on warm pajamas with fleece.

An option with closed legs is possible, a kind of analogue of sliders specially for adult girls - then the legs will always be warm, even if you stick them out from under the quilt in a dream.

In a stuffy summer, there is nothing better than an extremely lightweight sleeping set: it can be a T-shirt and shorts or an airy shirt with a free cut and weightless cropped pants or a special skirt. Add a bathrobe or a cute sleeping hat to your favorite pajamas - and a warm, homely look will sparkle with new colors.

Themed pajamas, created for specific dates and events, stand apart. For example, no one bothers to celebrate the outgoing and celebrate the New Year under the chimes, sitting at home at the festive table in smart pajamas decorated with New Year's symbols.

After all, it is not for nothing that they say: “how you meet the year - so you will spend it”, and what could be better than cozy fun in the family circle? Where New Year is, there is Christmas, another favorite reason to believe in miracles again and feel the joy of smart pajamas, in which it is so nice to unpack the gifts found under the tree.

Beautiful pajamas are not only coziness and warmth, but also romance. Few will be left indifferent by pajamas for a lady and her chosen one. Such special costumes are also a reason for romantic photo shoots, pictures from which will decorate albums and walls of the house for years to come. You can also invite your friends to a themed party with a strict dress code: all participants must come in pajamas. There will be no end to the fun and the positive - and you will smile for a long time, stumbling upon selected photos from the "pajama party" on social networks.

During pregnancy, it is better to give up tight-fitting T-shirts and tight-fitting shorts - such variations of pajama sets will not be able to provide the necessary amount of comfort at night.

To a similar ensemble for sleeping, it would be superfluous to add a cozy robe, which you can put on in the morning to have a cup of tea or sit with a book. For nursing mothers, pajamas tailored in the image of a kimono will be a real find. Slightly opening cuts in the upper part of it are very convenient - in order to start feeding the baby, a second manipulation is enough. You do not need to take off your pajamas.

When choosing pajamas for a lady who is prone to overweight, you should adhere to absolutely the same rules as when choosing a suit for sleeping for any other type of figure.

In all cases, the outfit will be distinguished by a loose fit and comfortable dimensionality. Convenience is paramount here. Pajamas for overweight are not a baggy design, but an airy outfit in which any crumpet will feel unsurpassed lightness and comfort.

Designers decorate pajama sets for young men and women with prints that refer to popular works and characters in various entertainment formats: from cartoon characters and Hollywood blockbusters to scenes from video games and idols from the world of sports.

Equally popular with yesterday's teens are pajamas for their hobbies and passions — pet prints or custom-made pajamas with a picture of the chosen one (like half of a pajama set).

If you single out any trend that can be traced in all the pajamas variety, then only fusion. A bold combination of top and bottom from different sets, a combination of at first glance incompatible elements like lace and Pokemon ears on the hood - today there are no prohibitions on experimentation. After all, a bed is not only a place to sleep, but also a boudoir in the true French sense of the word.

The main observation over the evolution of pajamas these days is this: every day it becomes more difficult to distinguish some women's pajamas for sleeping from the exquisite luxury of haute couture evening dresses or elaborate looks, carefully thought out by high-class image makers. At the same time, the popularity of the most basic monochrome pajamas models remains the same.

Natural cotton and silk were traditionally used for tailoring pajamas.But with the development of technology, the range of materials from which sleep suits were created has increased significantly. Today it is not uncommon for ladies' pajamas made of microfiber, velsoft and viscose, lace and plush, as well as velor and bike models.

An excellent option for girls who do not like coolness is a footer pajamas. This type of dense knitwear has an important distinctive feature: fleece on the seamy side. Thanks to this, footer pajamas perfectly retains the natural heat coming from the body and does not allow its owner to freeze.

Some pajamas for women go well with drapery or decorative fringes. Among other things, such details make the pajamas warmer, which will be useful in the long winter.

There is simply no clear set of rules and recommendations for choosing colors for women's pajamas. Timeless classics will always be in fashion - so feel free to wear plain pajamas. It can be both warm and cold tones. A girl can be equally comfortable in gray, white or blue pajamas, as well as in red, black or blue tones. It all depends on your mood!

Geometric patterns, which are so popular in outerwear, are increasingly claiming their rights to pajamas - today, no one is surprised by the plaid pajamas or the striped version. All kinds of prints are also in trend. Many ladies love animals - and this is evident in the design of their pajamas.

Disney cartoon characters are always in demand: Bambi the fawn, the Little Mermaid with her friends. Mickey and Minnie Mouse are generally a must have for pajamas! “Aliens” from Japan compete with Disney motives - another round of Pokemon addiction shook the planet quite recently. Traditionally, the main Japanese cat, Hello Kitty, is also loved by girls.

Today, pajamas are easily found in the collection of any fashion brand. However, you don't have to pay extra for the label. To the rescue come Spanish, Italian and Turkish companies, specializing, among other things, in the sewing of stylish pajamas. Names such as Vienetta Secret, Oysho, Luisa Moretti, Hays and Incanto have long been known to connoisseurs of affordable and quality items.

Of the relatively new "players" of the market, the Moscow project Time4Family should be noted, which has launched its own production in Moscow and promotes its pajamas on Instagram.

Firstly, nothing enlivens boring everyday life like an unusual reflection in the mirror when you get to the bathroom when you are asleep. Secondly, the opportunity to combine the components of different pajamas will bring additional variety. And thirdly, it's just a lot of fun: pajama selfies, pajama parties and a weekend in the “stock up on food and watch TV series” format will pleasantly diversify the life of any girl.

There is no need to be afraid of the size "for growth" - the freer and more spacious the pajamas are, the more comfortable you can wrap yourself in them. However, this is not a reason to refuse from fitted models or combinations of T-shirts and shorts.

A delicate image filled with the spirit of Christmas and New Year. The cozy top, if desired, can be unfastened by the required number of buttons to turn the outfit from romantic to provocative.
