The gentleman’s guide: what to wear in bed
Words: India Gladstone
What you wear in bed could be the make or break of a new (or old, if she’s looking for an excuse) relationship. Every gent needs to ensure that he wears appropriate attire during all parts of his daily life and yes, that includes what he wears in bed. You’re going to kick yourself if you invite a girl back and she instantly makes her excuses as soon as she sees your pyjamas lying on your bed. There are many types of gentleman out there, but every kind needs to be universal in what they wear. And bedside attire is quite often something that is forgotten about. This is exactly why we’re giving you the ultimate guide to what you need to wear in bed; remember, gents, it is never acceptable to wear leggings, an all-in-one or anything made out of fleece. Wear any of those and you deserve to have her leave. Immediately.
Boxers
Whilst boxers may seem like an obvious choice, wearing the right pair is guaranteed to take you to the next level. One of the worst things you can do is the wear the pair that you’ve been in all day, it’s imperative to have a clean stash available at all times. A common error that many gentlemen make is to assume that because you’re only purchasing items to wear in bed, that you don’t need to spend money. Not true, gents, not true.
Pyjamas
A beautiful pair of pyjamas is something that every gentleman should have in is life and often something that many, wrongly, think is just reserved for the older gentleman. Trust us when we say that whipping out a pair of these is guaranteed to please a certain type of woman – hopefully the one you want to please. Derek Rose make some of the best – and most well-priced – pyjamas on the market, so be sure not to pass on these.
Loungewear
The beauty with loungewear is that you can wear it around the house during the evening and, depending on your company, choose whether or not to wear it to bed. James Perse is the go-to brand for this exact outfit and investing in it will instantly gives off the aura that you’re a stylish guy who takes his casual wardrobe as seriously as his smart one.
Nothing
Always a winner. Every time.
