Clothing for listening to music at home
Short answer: Listening to music at home calls for clothes that give the body calm. Choose soft and loose so you can sit, lie down or walk around the living room without thinking about what you are wearing.
Music and clothing belong together
When you really listen to music, you are often still. You may lie on the floor, sit in an armchair with your eyes closed or wander about and let your thoughts follow. Here clothing becomes part of the experience. It should not make a sound, should not pull and should not need any thought. If the clothes itch or pull, concentration is broken, and the music loses some of its effect.
Shorts when the living room is warm
If the house is warm, a pair of shorts in a soft fabric can be the most comfortable choice. You have free legs, can sit cross legged and feel none of the tight waistbands that make it hard to rest. For a quiet evening shorts can be combined with a light top. See bamboo shorts for women if you want a pair for the warm days in the living room.
A soft top with a good fit
The top should be loose enough to lie calmly but not so large that it hangs in the way. A pajama shirt in a light fabric is a good option, because it can be buttoned or unbuttoned depending on the temperature. See women's Bamboo Pajama Shirt if you want a top that is soft to wear and easy to adjust. It also suits long sitting without pulling at the shoulders.
Sleepwear that doubles as living room clothing
Many people wear sleepwear when they are at home in the evening, long before they go to sleep. It is soft, loose and covering, and it suits lying on the sofa listening to a record. See bamboo sleepwear for women if you want a set that suits both evening and night. Keep the clothes clean and change them when they feel worn.
Small things that make the mood
Clothing is only part of the experience. Dim the lights, find a blanket and a cushion, and sit where the sound is best. Put your phone on silent so the music has room to fill the space. If you have a speaker or a good pair of headphones, you can close your eyes and let your thoughts follow the melody. The clothes should simply make sure nothing disturbs you.
Care for clothes worn at home
Clothes worn at home every evening must cope with regular washing. Wash viscose from bamboo at 30 to 40 degrees, preferably inside out, with a mild detergent and no fabric softener. Let it dry flat or on a hanger and avoid a hot tumble dryer. Hang the clothes to air between wears so they are ready the next time you sit down with music.
