Nightwear for Night Sweats

Not sure if I should post here or Style and Beauty. What do you wear? I have struggled to find fashionable, 100% cotton PJs and Nightdresses that fit well - I am short and have big boobs so traditional pjs pull across the bust if they have buttons and are generally too long, and the cropped legged ones make me look even shorter. I saw one that was 50% cotton/50% Modal, and another sleevless nightdress which I liked the style of was 100% viscose. But I am not sure if anything other than 100% cotton will be any good.

What do you wear?

I wear little cotton shorts & old loose T-shirts or vests. Don't care what they look like frankly!

Viscose is wood pulp and ver absorbent. George at Asda has a good selection of absorbent nightwear

Thanks for the replies. I wasn't sure about viscose, that is good to know, I might go ahead and order the one I saw now. I know I shouldn't care what I look like, but I'm feeling so frumpy, that what I look like for bed is important to me. Sad but true!

Not quite what you asked but I developed a night sweat strategy. Two single duvets so DH can have a warmer one. I have a single cotton sheet between me and the duvet. I just wear pj shorts but frankly haven't career what I look like in many years

Thanks, I hadn't considered the 2 duvet thing.

I wear some bamboo viscose pjs and they are comfy and quite cool.

I've started sleeping on a sheepskin too, which helps.

Thanks for the tips, can i ask where you got your bamboo viscose pjs please?
