The best way to start any day is with a great nights sleep, and while it may seem trivial at first, your choice of nightwear can make a big difference to the way you sleep. The right choice of nightgown, pajamas or other sleepwear is more important than your think.First consider the primary purpose of your nightwear. This will vary from day to day. Sometimes your simply looking for comfort while you sleep, sometimes youre looking for warmth, sometimes a little fantasy or glamour, and of course sometimes your nightwear is chosen for its sex appeal.While most people think of nightwear as something to keep them warm in bed, many women, often around the age of 50 or so, suffer from overheating, especially at night. For them nightwear needs to be cool and to reduce the night sweats many women of that age suffer from. While design of the nightgown is important, the most important factor in temperature control is fabric. Artificial fibres, while possibly easier to wash and care for, trap body heat and dont allow the body to breathe. Nightgowns made from natural fibres, such as cotton or silk are far more comfortable.Where temperatures are cold, the choice of nightwear often changes from nightgown to pajamas, in either case the choice should involve a design with sleeves. Even in cold temperatures natural fibres such as silk and cotton are more comfortable than modern, artificial fibres which seem to trap sweat, but sleeved designs come into their own. If you sleep alone, you may want to have your nightwear made from thicker fabric, designed to trap your own bodyheat.Comfort is very important in sleepwear and is often ruined by straps. Straps that are too short, too long, straps that dig in, straps that fall down, or worse still, straps that fall off. If your chosen sleepwear has straps, check the construction before buying, a surprising number of straps are beginning to fall off when the garment is still in the shops. Ideally straps will be firmly attached and adjustable in some way, or best of all they will cross over at the back, a design feature which ensures that they cant fall down.For a glamorous choice, chose a nightgown which has been designed to look like a full length evening dress. Silk or satin next to the skin creates a very opulent feeling as well as being generally more breathable and comfortable. If, like most women, you are pear shaped and have hips larger than your bust, you may have problems finding a nightgown which fits properly. Standard sizes allow for two inches difference in size between the hips and bust, but many women, particularly after they have had children, find the difference is more. The result is that the fitted busts of the more glamorous nightgowns are often too large, or if the bust is the right size, the remainder of the nightgown is too small. In this case to get the full glamorous effect, made to measure nightgowns are the answer.In terms of fabric, the most glamorous choice is usually satin, which feels good against the skin, but once again beware of artificial satins, silk may be a better choice. The reflective surface of satin can make you look larger than you actually are, so if that is a concern, the lower reflectivity of silk, or the use of a crepe backed satin, crepe side out, with the sleekness of the satin against the skin, can be an excellent and sensual choice.Some luxury brands add beads or beaded lace to the bodices of their nightgowns and lingerie. Think about this carefully before you buy. It looks fantastic and will make you feel good, but if you intend to wear the garment in intimate situations, will it be comfortable? The same comment could be made about the cheaper, scratchier laces. Nylon lace can look attractive but is often stiff and scratchy against the skin. Again, not ideal for the amorous of situations.Where a nightgown is chosen for its sex appeal, there are a number of factors to consider. Does the color suit? Many manufacturers sell a very narrow range, not everyone looks good in black or white, older more sophisticated women often look best in softer colors, such as peach and grey. Blues, which look fantastic on most women, are largely ignored by the lingerie industry, but are an excellent choice especially if you have blue eyes. Redheads will want to emphasise their coloring, soft greens and taupe are often good choices where available. Sadly the colors most often seen are black and white, where the details of the garment are usually difficult to see. Where you really want to make an impression, it is well worth going to the effort of finding just the right color for you.Satin feels wonderful against the skin, but silk can be so light that you feel while wearing it. Many women report that this gives them a special naughty feeling they get from no other fabric. Chiffon is another popular choice, as many men report that the hint of a womans body beneath her nightgown is far more exciting that the same women with nothing on. Chiffon comes in several weights, and can be used in multiple layers. Look for a style which covers the parts you dont like and shows off those that you do. Choose a nightgown which appeals to you and which you feel comfortable wearing. Many women report feeling silly in the nightgowns their partners choose for them. For romantic purposes, buy a nightgown that makes you feel glamorous and comfortable but naughty and then see where it takes you.Nightgowns and pajamas are not simply what we wear at night, they are important garments; we spend at least a third of our lives in them. Feeling really good in your nightwear helps you get a good nights sleep and feel good about yourself. You wake refreshed and when you take that first look in the mirror in the morning, you feel good about your reflection. Can there be a better way to start the day?
