JBS of Denmark bamboo nightdress and what to look for
Short answer: A nightdress in bamboo viscose sits lightly against the skin and does not cling when you get warm at night. Look at the length, the sleeve type and the neckline, because those decide whether the nightdress gets worn.
Length and freedom of movement
A nightdress has to move with you when you turn over in bed. A model that is too narrow wraps around the waist. Look for a model with width at the hem. See the range in bamboo nightdresses for women and at JBS of Denmark.
Sleeves and temperature
Short sleeves are worn all year by most people, while long sleeves are for cold bedrooms. If you sleep warm, straps or short sleeves are the right choice. The background is in sleep cool in summer with bamboo.
Why the material matters most at night
Under the duvet the temperature changes several times during the night. Bamboo viscose moves moisture away from the skin, so you do not wake up clammy. That is the same reason the material is used for bamboo bedding.
Washing
Nightdresses are washed often, so the programme matters a great deal for their life. 40 degrees, no fabric softener and air drying. See the washing guide for bamboo clothing.
Frequently asked questions
How often should a nightdress be washed?
After two to three nights if you sleep without anything else underneath. Sweat settles quickly in thin materials.
Are long sleeves too warm?
Not in bamboo viscose. The fabric moves moisture away, so the sleeves warm without making you clammy.
Which length is most used?
Knee length. It gives freedom of movement and wraps around the waist less than the long models.
