The past few years have brought many things into our lives — click and collect shopping, the words ‘quarantine’ and ‘lockdown’ and the decidedly comfy loungewear fashion trend.
Thankfully, the sartorial trend that prioritises comfort and cosiness above all else shows no signs of receding.
Once the domain of Sporty Spice and the housewives from different global cities we watch on TV, loungewear remains one of the most in-demand categories on shopping sites across the world.
And it’s not hard to see why – it ticks all the boxes. Comfortable? Yes. Looks good? Yes. Are you basically wearing work-appropriate pyjamas? Yes again.
We’ve scoured the web to find you the best loungewear sets and brands to shop right now.
BEST LOUNGEWEAR SETS AND BRANDS
Relaxed Cotton Fleece Hoodie, The Oodie, $84 (down from $109)
Match it with the: Relaxed Cotton Fleece Trackpant, The Oodie, $79 (down from $89)
While The Oodie may be known for its unique and insanely comfortable hooded blanket, don’t look past the brand’s newly released loungewear collection.
Made from a premium heavyweight cotton fleece blend, the collection is designed to provide you with comfort and warmth. It’s super soft to the touch, and all the pieces are meant to give you that relaxed, unisex and oversized fit.
Not into a hoodie? You can always opt for a crew neck ($74, down from $99) or a cotton tee ($59, down from $69). We also love the idea of these fleece shorts ($59 (down from $69) for that in-between weather.
All of the clothing items are offered in a gorgeous colour palette, including steel blue, cream, black and sea foam green. They’re also machine-washable, making them super easy to care for.
