Can’t sleep? The season’s best pajamas can help with that. And while there’s no wrong time to shop for new PJs, this moment feels especially right with the shift in temperature. Be it a classic striped pair, a plaid flannel set, or a silky duo rendered in rich jewel tones, we rounded up Vogue editor-loved and tested styles that prove sleepwear is a style category in a league of its own.
If you’re looking for the perfect gift for women (for yourself or otherwise), there’s plenty to choose from. Lake and Olivia von Halle’s sleep sets are bound to be a hit among best friends, mothers, or even brides-to-be, with their sweet silhouettes and feminine-chic details. For those who want something streamlined and comfortable, Lunya’s washable silk sleepwear is so soft you’ll never want to get out of bed.
Equally popular for the cooler months are Eberjey’s timeless piped sets, as well as Hanro’s pajamas cut from soft mercerized cotton. For the depths of winter, a tartan two-piece will keep you toasty (cue the weekend movie marathon).

Ahead, 22 of the best pajamas for women to elevate your sleep.
