Choosing to venture outdoors in sleepwear could once cause a few raised eyebrows or upturned noses, but now, the classic pyjama shirt has been reinvented as an alternative daywear option by designers such as Dolce and Gabanna.

Not only does this versatile item offer an opulent update of the cotton shirt, it also puts any former slobbish stereotypes to bed

Try casually layering one over a vest or pair with heeled loafers and boyfriend jeans for a polished Parisian effect. Dress it up with bold gold accessories, or dress it down with denim. The soft silk is sure to keep you warm during the breezy summer evenings and what’s more, it doubles as bedroom attire for those long nights where changing is just a contemplation too far.
