Nights in white linen

by Baudouin Deboulle

Known as the oldest textile fibre in the world, flax is primarily grown in Western European countries, with France as its largest producer. This biodegradable, sustainable vegetable fibre is well known for its absorbing and cooling properties and is popular with people looking for comfortable, stylish clothes. Linen sleepwear promises a good night's sleep. Discover the main benefits of linen and fashionable nightwear for all women.

Benefits of linen sleepwear

Linen is one of a kind – not only is it pleasant to the skin but it is temperature-regulating, anti-allergenic and sweat-wicking. It absorbs moisture and allows the body to breathe, keeping you cool and comfortable all summer and warm in the winter. A pleasure to wear in all seasons for quiet nights. To chill out and read on a Sunday or for a good night’s sleep, linen loungewear will feel good against your skin. Linen is a natural and ecological fabric, easy to launder. It does not lose its shape or pill over time. It is the future of an eco-friendly fashion, comfortable and easy on the skin.

Available nightwear

Linen lovers can choose from a wide range of nightwear in terms of cut, style and colour. Nightgowns, nightdresses, pyjamas of various cuts and lengths for all sizes and shapes, you will be spoilt for choice! If you want to look your best at night, the knee length sexy nightie with thin straps, with or without frills is what you need. For a more elegant style, go for a long nightdress with long sleeves or adjustable straps. The fluid and elegant line of nightgowns and nightdresses allows for freedom of movement in style. For a more laid-back look, choose short or long pyjamas with 2 front pockets and a cord tie to move around freely. For summer nights, opt for short-sleeve nightwear, and long pyjamas during the winter. Whether you prefer fancy or classic sleepwear, linen will be your best choice for a peaceful, refreshing sleep.

Top tips

Pure linen clothing provides a better quality than cotton, is easy to machine wash and dries quickly. It is recommended to get 2 different colours for the nightdress and piping. Choose one size larger than your normal size to ensure comfort and breathability. Linen clothes are easily washable. In the summer, the air needs to circulate. Loose garments are less likely to crease. Wearing linen pyjamas or nighties will help you feel comfortable and sleep better. Timeless, easy to maintain, 100 percent natural linen is a proof of good taste.

True New Linen

Happy with my first grown up set of linens. How wonderful to sleep on quality bedding, what a difference it makes. Have had the best sleep since using these and look forward to them softening. Nice neutral colour that won't look dingy after washing. They were packaged well. Recommended. So glad I chose Linenshed.
The only downside was DHL whose delivery was made even later than the expected time, due to the lazy driver not taking the time to find my address which meant I had to wait an extra two days.

Very happy

Such lovely quality and colours. I look forward to going to bed every night, it is a very different experience sleeping in linen....no looking back.

Lovely quality

I haven’t yet hung them but both pairs look very lovely & are very good quality, the stitched edges are perfectly executed too, would recommend

Good quality

Good quality but colours are not as shown. Ice blue is really pale green and french blue is bluey grey. Disappointed with colours.

Beautiful!

My napkins have just arrived and I couldn't be happier. Lovely soft linen, simply edged.
Delivery was much faster than some of the reviews led me to think would be the case. Xmas deliveries are always tricky!

Nice

Busy moving house, but I will definitely be ordering a quilt

The collar is very large and the lack of pockets is a shame. Apart from that I'm delighted with them, good quality material and very well made.

Hi Keith,
Your feedback is very valuable for us as there is always a room for improvement. We will definitively consider to place some pockets on the vest and reduce the width of the collar for future production. Thank you!

I want to return this item and am still waiting to hear from you as to where I send it with a return label , please reply asap.

Not received

I did not receive any swatches! I waited considerable time for the swatches then decided to order using the photos.

You swatch pouch might have been lost in the courier, we are really sorry. I requested my office to forward you a fresh swatch pouch for potential future orders.

Nightmare returns process

Lovely product but colour not true to image (difficult I know) therefore needed to return which is a very long winded and difficult process. For this reason despite loving the product would not deal with company again which is a shame as I am an interior designer

Dear Lorraine,
We are a bit confused with your feedback since you had ordered from us a swatch pouch with all the physical linen colour samples prior to your order, you may have chosen your nude colour according to it and not to what you may see on a screen. For any further order, please always refer to the physical linen swatches as they are cut from our inventory, they are exactly as the product we will make for you or your customers.
