The 19 Best Pajamas for Women to Wear All Day and Night

These under-$100 pajamas from Nordstrom's own brand are great if you love a more fitted look to your pajamas. They come in several colors in prints, and reviewers note how soft they are. However, other reviews say that they tend to pill if they're not washed correctly. Our tip? Wash them on a gentile cycle or in a lingerie bag to keep that from happening. Other reviewers also say that they're thicker than other pajama sets, so stock up on them if you live in a colder climate.

Personal anecdote time: My mom has invested in J.Crew pajama sets ever since I was little and she has never had to replace them. This cotton set from the brand features all the classic details that you would typically expect: contrasting piping on the hem, a boxy, roomy fit, and a drawstring waistband. They're also machine-washable and only get softer the more you wash them over time. They're available in three colors and in women's sizes XXS through 3X. 

These pieces from Hill House Home—which are sold separately for sizing convenience—are actually monogrammable, so they make the best-ever gift for that person on your list who seems impossible to shop for. Buy The Perri Sleep Tank and the matching Gemma Sleep Shorts for a lightweight short set that works year-round, especially if you get hot when you sleep. So if you’re shopping for someone who is a Hill House Home superfan (myself included!), this is the perfect wintery addition to their wardrobe because you can shop them in prints that match the rest of your Nap Dress collection. 

"I’ve never been the kind of person to care about what I wear to bed and would typically throw on a big old t-shirt and call it a night. Then I received this Eberjey set and my whole outlook on pajamas has changed. To put it simply, they are 100 percent worth the hype. They are buttery soft and cozy, yet perfectly lightweight enough to keep me cool. Every night I wear these pjs is a night I go to bed happy." — Brooke Knappenberger, Assoiciate Commerce Editor

They're so cute, Margot Robbie recently wore a pink version to a screening of the Barbie movie.

Mejia loves this pair of Eberjey pajamas because "Even with all the washing they have endured, they have retained their beautiful patina," she says.

You can shop them now in three printed colorways that are not for the faint-of-heart.

Not only is this bestselling long pajama set from Eberjey soft as can be, but the quality lasts even after you wash them a few times.

This set comes in 13 shades and in sizes XS through XL.

"Cou Cou Intimate's sleep shorts and matching cami top are the pajamas that finally (finally!) inspired me to say goodbye to a certain ratty, oversized T-shirt I've been wearing as a makeshift nightgown for, ahem, decades. They're made of ultra-soft, organic cotton and boast a darling coquette-ish pointelle knit design that ensures my dreams are sweet. The shorts, in particular, are a standout because I love how they call on the easy comfort boxers but with more of a feminine twist that feels true to me" — Emma Childs, Style Editor

"I am all in on fancy pajamas, because I want to have a glorious bedtime experience. These pjs are comfy-cozy, and then you can go matching or mix and match with colors. You can also pick long or short sleeved tops and pants (with different inseam sizes) or shorts for a very custom experience. They come back in stock if your fave color is not available at the moment. This was the stocking stuffer pick (in matching colors) for my husband." — Katherine J. Igoe, Contributing Editor

Not all pajamas need to be made from silk or cotton. This pair from Victoria's Secret are made from a quilted thermal material that are very much vintage-inspired.

"Printfresh’s matching pajama sets, sleep shirts, and airy sleep dresses are adorned with patterns that never fail to fill my brain with dopamine, and this “Happy Howlidays” set is no different. The cozy fabric is decorated with little dogs of all different breeds surrounded by Christmas lights, pine trees, and other delightful holiday decor. Like all of the brand’s pajamas, the fabric is warm without ever getting too hot or stuffy, and is roomy enough for me to move about freely—something that many of my other sets fail to do, especially around the bust." — Gabrielle Ulubay, E-Commerce Writer
