This new Singapore sleepwear brand is sexy AND comfortable

Who doesn’t love the idea of wearing something sexy and luxurious to bed every night? But often the reality of real silk sleepwear makes for an uncomfortable night - as it pulls and tugs at your body - and an irritating time later when you have to handwash or dryclean your bits and pieces. These two issues - plus the often eye-watering prices too - mean few of us bother to splash out on silk sleepwear, lingerie or loungewear, right?  

Which is why the launch of new Singapore-based brand Maison Zhou will make you very happy. Two of the most important things to know about the brand is 1. The pieces are made of stretch silk .. and 2. These pieces are also machine washable.  Oh, yes, there are other nice things about Maison Zhou … all the pieces have French seams (no harsh edges rubbing your skin); there are touches of pretty lace; you can buy all the pieces individually depending on your preferences and even better, the prices are very reasonable.  

You can basically separate the brand’s pieces into ‘sexy’ and ‘comfortable’. The sexy pieces include a lovely sleep bra and French knickers and some lovely long ‘sleep gowns’ (pretty enough to almost be wearable enough as a dress on its own). These pieces are perfect for sexy honeymoon nightwear.

The more ‘comfortable’ pieces include classic silk pajama tops and bottoms - long or short - a long sleep shirt, plus a nice wrap top and a robe with a soft Mandarin collar. The pajama shirts are also perfect for the current loungewear as daywear trend. The pieces are variously available in black, midnight blue, cream, metal and blush.  

Prices for Maison Zhou pieces range from $140 for the sleep bra, to $295 for a pajama shirt and up to $495 for the brand’s Qiang robe. You can shop the pieces online at www.maisonzhou.com and in real life at Beauty Candy at Mandarin Gallery, the brand will also be available at the Boutiques Fair at the F1 Pit Building on November 4 & 5.
