Buying guide
Fabric base
Most satin pyjamas are woven from polyester — choose recycled polyester where possible. Some use silk-blend or rayon-satin.
Finish
Look for a heavyweight satin with a charmeuse finish for the best drape. Cheap satin can feel slippery and cold.
Care
Machine wash on cold delicate, air-dry. Iron on the reverse with low heat.
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between silk and satin pyjamas?+
Silk is a natural fibre; satin is a weave. Most satin pyjamas are made from polyester woven in a satin weave, giving you the drape and shine of silk at a much lower price.
Are satin pyjamas good for hair and skin?+
Yes — satin has a smooth surface that reduces hair friction and skin creasing while you sleep, similar to silk.
Where can I buy satin pyjamas in Australia?+
Peter Alexander, Sussan, Kmart, Target, Papinelle and David Jones all stock satin and silk pyjamas Australia-wide.
