The big white dress gets a lot of attention—but in the run-up to your big day, you start to realize exactly how many bridal extras you may need. From the rehearsal dinner to the bridal shower to, yes, the loungewear you’ll wear to sip your coffee and get ready the morning-of, weddings come with a lot of outfit changes. Why not have fun with it? Bridal pajamas take on many forms—and the best ones, complete with feather embellishments and silky fabrics, are really pretty fabulous.
Think of it as your way to set the tone for the day. Choose a satin robe to match an opulent setting, a breezy cotton set to mirror a coastal destination, or a beautifully detailed slip dress that makes you feel put-together just by throwing it on. One thing to keep in mind: Whatever sleepwear you choose, opt for something you can slip on or off without compromising your hair and makeup.
Vogue’s Guide to the Best Bridal Pajamas, Dresses, and Robes:
Whatever you gravitate to, it’ll serve as a memento of your special morning long after the day is done; choose wisely. From perfectly bridal pajama sets to sweet robes to delicate nightgowns both long and short, here are 24 options to consider.
Pretty Pajamas
Consider the climate and location of the wedding. A summer wedding by the sea might call for a cotton short set, while a December wedding in the city is just begging for Sleeper’s feathered long-sleeve two-piece. Either way, you’ll want to ensure comfort levels are high; bridal hair and makeup can take hours, and this is not the place for itchy tags or too-tight waistbands. (If you ask us: Something silky is always a safe bet.)
