Knitwear enthusiasts, listen up. If you thought your working-from-home threads couldn’t get any cosier, think again, because cashmere loungewear is the winter staple you never knew you needed. Think impossibly soft trousers spun from the softest yarns , with a matching jumper to snuggle up in.

What is loungewear vs sleepwear? Loungewear has long been a staple in the comfy dressing arena, but it was during lockdown that it really came into its own. We wanted clothing that was comfortable but felt distinct from pyjamas – something that could be worn on the sofa but not look out of place at the supermarket. While many of us are no longer working from home full-time, our love of loungewear has remained, and it’s not unusual to see people pulling on loungewear sets after a gym class or pairing them with wellies and a raincoat for a Sunday stroll.

Who makes the most comfortable loungewear? Pared-back knitted separates have been a hit since temperatures started to drop, with styles from Arket, Marks & Spencer and Raey among the most popular. Up the ante on your knitwear game this winter with British Vogue ’s selection of the best cashmere and cashmere -blend loungewear sets. They’re a game changer.
