I’ve been looking into proudly South African sleepwear and loungewear for a while now. The seasons will soon be changing, which calls for a wardrobe decluttering session and when I need to replace certain items, the focus is on buying clothing items that not only feel and fit well. In addition to that, I’ve also taken a stance to purchase items that have a limited impact on the environment, which means looking into locally produced clothing. In my quest to support local, I was so happy to come across these brands while searching for the perfect sets of sleepwear and loungewear.
The Sleep Collective’s Proudly South African Sleepwear Options
This brand‘s sleepwear is luxurious and comfortable at the same time. Their silk kimono and shorts are made from 70% silk and 30% cotton. Both cotton and silk are thermo-regulators, which means it helps regulate your body temperature no matter the season. Individually hand-cut and sewn in Cape Town, these PJs are proudly South African sleepwear and loungewear sets worth investing in. The Sleep Collective also boasts some lovely eye masks and hemp or silk lavender eye pillows that could benefit your attempts to relax, assist in meditation and help you to fall asleep.
Anna-Louise Sleepwear
Anna Downes says that her brand, Anna-Louise Sleepwear makes use of wood-based fibre called Rayon which has a luxurious drape similar to that of silk, while being soft and breathable like cotton.

Hometime Sleepwear is another brand to keep in mind when you are looking for more luxurious, slow fashion sleepwear that has been made in South Africa. The brand boasts an array of options to choose from with satin and rayon sleepwear with some of the most beautiful prints.
In addition to the classic sleepwear sets, Hometime Sleepwear also sells luxurious 3/4 sleepwear sets, their so-called Chinese Collar Nighties, boxer shorts, Strappy Sets, gowns, leisurewear and more.
While their fabrics are sourced locally and also imported, all their sleepwear is made in Kwazulu-Natal.

Sweet Peas
Twin sisters, Stacy and Che founded Sweet Peas in 2017, creating handcrafted, locally produced, premium pieces with an international influence. “We believe fashion should be slow, and as a business, we don’t want to over consume – leading to our “custom made to order” business model, to ensure we keep our stock levels at a minimum to ensure minimal waste,” they say. “We use natural, good quality materials that are made to last.” Their loungewear is beautiful and elegant and you’ll certainly feel like a million bucks in it.
