As the end of the year approaches and temperatures continue to drop, our comfiest clothes become more important than ever.

Whether it’s for festive cocooning with the family, trying to keep warm while working from home or running errands on chilly mornings, loungewear is the perfect solution for your everyday winter wardrobe.

This season, fashion meets function with ultra-cosy fabrics, chic colour combinations, and sportswear-inspired styles you’ll want to wear around the clock.

These are the key loungewear trends to know about now…

Fuzzy fabrics

Teddy bear-esque textiles such as fleece and borg are bang on trend and provide extra insulation when you need it the most.

For a beautifully luxe lounge look, opt for a minimalist two-piece set in a soft cream, white or ivory shade.

Latte lounging

As seen on Jennifer Lawrence and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, the ‘latte dressing’ trend – wearing a combination of coffee colours – has blown up on TikTok and it works perfectly with loungewear too.

From milky tones to rich mocha, you can mix and match separates or go head-to-toe in one shade.
