HOW IT ALL STARTED...

You wouldn’t be surprised to learn that our original nightshirt is still our #1 bestseller here at The Sleep Shirt. Based on a 19th century men’s chemise, with long sleeves, a shirt stand collar with short, button-down placket and a very roomy body, it's a piece that stands the test of time. Find out more about this and our other best selling styles.

THE SHORT SLEEP SHIRT

The Short Sleep Shirt so loved because of its comfort, versatility, and classic design. It's not the kind of shirt that you’d be embarrassed to be wearing when you open the door to room service, or in front of the in-laws. It can be worn as a nightshirt, a pyjama top, a dress, a beach coverup, or an oversized shirt. It is truly the best alternative to sleeping in a old T-shirt.

The Short Sleep Shirt was the piece that started it all. In 2010, our founder Alex was in London for Fashion Week, browsing Spitalfields antique market and came across a 19th century oversized men’s chemise in a blue and white striped cotton fabric. That chemise inspired me to design the Short Sleep Shirt: the first design we produced.

THE LONG SLEEP SHIRT

The Long Sleep Shirt is our founder's favourite. A few inches longer than the original Short Sleep Shirt, the length makes it a little more comfortable to wear in front of guests, and also provides a little more coverage in the cooler months.
