Feminine and Flattering - The Most Comfortable Women's Nightwear

What you wear to bed is as important as the environment you're going to doze off in. Whether you sleep in pyjamas, a nightshirt or a cami and lounge pants, it's all about feeling as comfortable as possible as you relax and close your eyes. Material can play a big part in that, which is why we select only the finest natural fibre grown by Merino sheep.

*Did you know, according to medical research papers, Merino wool pyjamas can help you get up to 15 minutes extra snooze time compared to cotton pyjamas?’ *Nature and Science of Sleep, 2016

Made from the finest 'two-fold' 17.5-micron yarn (consider that a single human hair is 60 microns), this wool is as smooth as silk on your skin and has been scientifically proven to improve eczema conditions. And it’s ideal for women going through the menopause. Modern twists, flattering forms and soothing natural tones give our Merino wool sleepwear collection a sumptuously chic look you’ll love to potter around the home in. ¬

From bed to brunch, you'll always feel cosy in our sleep camis, pyjama tops, nightdresses, pyjama bottoms and sleep tees.

From Sheep to Sleep - Traceable and Sustainable Women's Sleepwear

Our Merino wool nightwear for women isn't just better for sleep - it's better for the planet. All the wool used in this collection comes from the sheep that roam and graze in the breath-taking Southern Alps of New Zealand.

Just a single sheep can grow two to three kilograms of wool every year - with nothing but a diet of grass and sunshine. And because the collection is certified by ZQ Merino, we can trace the wool back to the very sheep it came from.

The Merino wool is carded, spun and woven in an Italian mill - the only mill in the world to have an EMAS certification for environmental practices too.

Sleep Easy All Year Round - Temperature Regulating Merino Wool Nightwear

Just like our bedding, our Merino wool sleepwear helps to regulate your temperature as you sleep. It’s totally breathable. These soft fibres wick away moisture from your body - to help keep you dry during those hot summer months. The natural crimps also cleverly trap warm air when it’s cold - keeping you super snug on those chilly winter nights. It’s the perfect choice for all seasons.

Ultra-Comfortable Menopause Nightwear

You deserve a heavenly night's sleep at the end of a long day - that shouldn't be negotiable. But we understand how menopause symptoms can leave you in discomfort during the night. Through our collaboration with Smalls Merino, we've created a fantastic range of menopause nightwear to help keep you cool.

Wool is one of nature's wonder materials (we keep saying it because it’s true!). Our Merino wool sleepwear's all-natural fibres breathe. So, as your core body temperature rises during hot flashes, the fibres wick away excess moisture from your skin and simply release it. It's the best nightwear for night sweats too. And it'll continue to feel luxuriously soft and sumptuously comfortable.

With our cooling menopause sleepwear, you can get back to sweet dreaming, and feel fresh when you wake up.

Who Are Smalls Merino?

Smalls Merino is a British brand with New Zealand heritage. Emma-Jane Adam and Catriona Pharo founded the brand with a mission: to reimagine the way we wear wool.

From the start, sustainability and traceability have been a core value of their brand - making them the perfect partner for Woolroom. Smalls Merino only works with ZQ Merino-certified farms, resulting in high-quality 'slow' fashion pieces designed to be worn longer.

With luxurious Merino wool sleepwear essentials designed for layering and lounging, Smalls Merino's products have been featured in Vogue, Vanity Fair and the Daily Mail.

How to Wash Merino Wool

Each of the pieces in the Woolroom Sleepwear by Smalls Merino collection is designed to be worn and enjoyed, time and time again. (Once you feel how silky soft they are, you’ll want to wear them 24/7!) All that’s needed is a simple 3o°C degree wash - no special treatment needed. And you don’t have to worry about them shrinking or fading either. The patented finishing and knitting process used at our mill ensures our Merino wool sleepwear always retains that luxurious comfortable and supremely flattering feel.

Is Merino Wool Itchy?

This is a classic myth. Our Merino wool sleepwear for women is certified ULTRAFINE by The Woolmark Company. Tested against the strictest quality standards, it’s rated at 99.5% for wool comfort on the skin. It’s officially skin and eczema friendly, so it’s the perfect choice if you are affected by skin sensitivity.

Is Merino Wool Good for Summer Sleeping?

Yes, yes, yes! Though you might think wool and summer are anything but a harmonious combination, they actually go hand-in-hand. Why? Unlike synthetic materials, wool breathes. So, when the temperature around you rises, it’ll absorb any perspiration and release it into the air – helping you to stay cool. From our Merino wool nightdresses to our Merino wool camis – whatever you’re wearing from our collection will help you enjoy a soothing slumber.

Is Merino Wool Biodegradable?

Yes. These products are made from durable Merino wool that’s designed to provide years of use. However, when they do reach the end of their life, the Merino wool will simply biodegrade in the ground in about 6-18 months – releasing carbon and nutrients back into the soil.
