CHIARA SALMON LINEN PJ

The Chiara Salmon Linen PJ blends European flaxseed linen with viscose, giving linen's breathability with less creasing. The shirt has shell buttons and an oversized kimono-style sleeve, and the shorts sit on a self-fabric tie. It can be mixed with the Chiara pant set.

Blending linen with viscose is a deliberate compromise and a smart one for sleepwear. Pure linen creases the moment you sit down, which is fine for a shirt and irritating in bed, so adding viscose softens the fabric and keeps it looking settled rather than crumpled.

The kimono sleeve is the design signature. Wide and open, finished with a shell button, it gives the shirt a resort quality that pushes it well past conventional nightwear, so it works over swimwear or with linen trousers just as easily. Salmon is a soft blush that suits that resort register. Because the Chiara pant set is available separately, the pieces can be mixed to give you several combinations from two purchases.
