I couldn't wear PJs, I get too hot around the legs - I've always liked nighties or night shirts preferably in jersey so they have a bit of give. I always have to buy a big size as well as they tend to be so skimpy.
As a young child I remember being given a new nightdress on Christmas eve and it was lovely to wear something new - I know this was done so we looked nice when pictures were taken the next morning opening presents .
I really think nightwear is boring these days - where have all the pretty night dresses gone - I used to like going to bed feeling slightly glamorous. The choice now seems to be: 'onesies', PJs, T shirt type nighties or granny style nighties with peter pan collars - all in dreadful fabric patterns.
Maybe someone could design some lovely menopause nightwear - soft floaty nightdresses with flattering necklines in soft absorbent fabrics that are in beautiful colours.
