Modal

Modal is a type of rayon made from beech tree pulp that is exceptionally soft and has a slight sheen. It's more absorbent than cotton, breathable, and resistant to shrinkage and fading. This makes modal an excellent choice for comfortable and durable loungewear and sleepwear.

Linen

Linen is known for its natural, laid-back look and excellent breathability, making it a great choice for summer sleepwear. It has natural cooling properties and becomes softer with each wash. However, it can wrinkle easily and may feel rougher than other fabrics until it has been washed a few times.

Jersey

Jersey is a stretchy, knit fabric that feels soft and cozy, making it perfect for loungewear. It's breathable and maintains its shape well, providing comfort and flexibility in movement. Jersey is also easy to care for, making it a practical choice for everyday wear.

Flannel

For colder months, flannel is a popular choice due to its warmth and softness. Made typically from cotton or wool, flannel is brushed to create a soft nap, providing extra insulation. It's breathable and comfortable, ideal for cozy sleepwear when the temperature drops.

Each fabric offers unique benefits, so the best choice depends on personal preferences, the climate, and sensitivity to certain materials. Comfort is paramount, so selecting a fabric that feels good against your skin and suits your needs is crucial for a good night's sleep or relaxing lounging at home.
