    Give me a decent nightie all the time! Pjs were when a boy but that’s so long ago I’ve forgotten, and besides, with my elevated body temp even a nightie gets too hot to wear much the time!!!!

    During the warmer months i like wearing nighties, the warmer the shorter and the coldest months the unflattering trackies.

    Oh dear– Nighties !! Nighties !! Nighties so much more feminine and just right for the weather in Nth Qld.. Plus growing up from the era of fabulous fifties the swinging sixties and sexy seventies I just adore all the wonderful “vintage nightwear” from those years and even further back mmmmmmmmmmm :D

    If I could I would wear a long flowing nightie. But that option has been strongly vetoed by my wife! (except when I am working away from home)

    As a compromise I wear women’s brushed satin pjs which keep me warm through the Tassie winter. I have one pair in emerald green and another in navy blue with white trim. During summer I wear satin boxers and a cotton singlet.

    Nylon or Satin nighties for me!-I have been collecting vintage nighties since the early nineties and have about twenty so far.The better ones I keep to admire or wear on special ocassions and the “more loved” ones I use for every night wear.Any I find that are too small for me are commandeered by my S/O.
    Nighties are about the dressing I,ve been doing for sometime now.

    Well, the Canberra climate dictates what one wears in bed. Currently with most nights dropping down into the minus 5 and 6’s, for me it’s a flanelette nightie, short length, and long sleeved. Summer, anything goes, the less restictive the better. Keep warm,

    Hi folks,

    Having tried both “regimes”, (with almost a constant being the dressing gown/negligee had to match), I finally came down on the side of the PJ’s.
    Green satiny/polyester to be precise. I still have them, but cant wear them at night these days, cos of my “situation” with my SO

    I found nighties got me “in a twist” and were not as warm. This was mostly due to the the non centralised air con in the hotel rooms I slept in.

    I have fond memories of waking up and spending my “brekkie time” in my room all femme, then changing to my male clothes for a days work “on the road”

    Hi

    I have a few pairs of well worn qantas PJ’s (Morrisey) they are divine-shame about the grey color though. The top half is long enough to wear as a nightie, and the bottom half is super comfortable as well. Only time I ever felt dressed in public was with a set of these on: on a long haul flight. They felt so good it was a shame to go to sleep!!
