Would you pay £150 for pyjamas?

[GenevaL]

I’ve seen some pyjamas I really like with a jaguar print on. They were in a sponsored ad which said something along the lines of ‘everyone needs two pairs of our pyjamas during lockdown’ so I clicked and then saw they were £150 and made of cotton, not silk or gold or cashmere. Part of me thinks if you can afford it, what the hell but the other part of me questions if anyone in their right mind would pay this. So, AIBU to think £150 pyjamas are an utter waste of money?

I've recently bought this and absolutely love it - it's not quite as much, but is essentially just a dressing gown.. it's gorgeous and I love wafting around the house in it.

I would. Maybe not those but I would spend £150 on pjs. I don’t even sleep in them but I love good pjs.

Since clicking on this link, their advertising is coming up on my FB. The comments are not positive.

I don't wear pyjamas, I wear nighties. I like to get some fresh air to my lady bits.

I usually buy mine from supermarkets, spending about £6.

I wouldn't even spend £150 on a winter coat, which to me is a better use of my money. At least others aside from my husband and the dog would see them.

They're lovely, but I like the leopard ones better.

I bet they feel fabulous too. If I wanted some really special pj's for any reason, I could be seriously tempted.

I love the Queen of Hearts print on One Hundred Stars. More reasonably priced.

I think the most I've paid on Pj's is about £40. I'm a sucker for slippers though, I love the Fitflops ones.

Pootles I've bought 3 of their dressing gowns on lockdown but haven't worn them yet, too nice! I have bought them when the discount offer was on though.

Oh yes, very unusual! I like those too @FreshFieldsGal. Pity they're "one size fits all" rather than proper sizes though.

Candida that's a good point - one size is ok for dressing gowns, but not for pjs I don't imagine.

My daughters (22 and 18) have a set each bought as a xmas present by a very venerous Aunt. They are gorgeous and wash/ wear well - love them
so definately get a pair

Do they make the coffee in the morning??

I’ve got the One Hundred Stars dressing gown in Paris map. I love it, it feels as if I should have a boudoir.

Does she know you talk about her like that behind her back?

Best typo ever contender!

😳😳😳

she is the most lovliest auntie - must learn to proof read☺☺

I mean, if you can afford it, and really want them, then why not?

Personally I'm content in my knickers and £2.50 Primark vest top! Each to their own!

I’ve been having the exact same debate throughout all of lockdown!

I bought cyberjammies and felt that was pushing the boat out

Absolutely not.

I wouldn't. I would normally get PJs somewhere like Asda or even sleep in old joggers and T shirt.

But .... I have read that you should spend most money on the clothing you wear the most - so perhaps it's something to think about. Particularly since working from home I sometimes spend all day in PJs

If I really like the pyjamas, yes I would spend that amount

£310 for a robe 😂 So glad I’m not rich and gullible.

I’m not keen on the designs for this brand. Plus I’ve seen too much SM type advertising to make me go off it more.

These were my lockdown investment! I have the jaguar and the pineapple, and I LOVE them.
