Sleepwear buyers keep asking for the same two things this season: a softer hand-feel than cotton jersey, and colours that survive fifty washes without going grey. We have spent the last few months working with our dyeing partners on two fabric platforms that answer both, and they are now open for sampling.
Platform 1 — 95/5 modal-elastane
A single-knit modal with 5% elastane, 180–220 gsm depending on the style. It drapes the way buyers expect from premium pyjama sets, holds its shape through elastic waistbands, and takes deep, even colour in piece dye. This is the platform we recommend for women's pyjama sets, camisole tops and loungewear programmes where the fabric is the selling point.
Platform 2 — Tencel™ lyocell blends
Lyocell-rich blends, 160–200 gsm, available in solid dye and yarn-dye stripe. Lyocell's moisture management makes it a natural fit for sleepwear and for warm-climate markets, and the fibre's strength means we can offer finer gauges without sacrificing durability. For buyers building an eco-forward line, lyocell is also the easier fibre to talk about honestly in your own product copy.
What this means for your programme
- MOQ: development runs from 100 pieces per style and colour, on both platforms
- Sampling: counter-samples target 7–10 working days from confirmed tech pack
- Bulk lead time: 35–45 days depending on dye lot scheduling
- Lab dips: submitted before bulk dyeing, so colour is signed off in writing
- Documentation: fibre composition and fabric test reports travel with the shipment file
Both platforms run through the same cut-and-sew floor as our cotton programmes — same three-checkpoint inspection, same AQL final inspection, same packing standards. If you already produce cotton pyjamas with us, adding a modal or lyocell capsule is a scheduling conversation, not a new-supplier conversation.
