Unless you’re one of the lucky ones and you’ve managed to bag yourself an air conditioning unit, getting a full eight hours seems like a bush tucker trial for some. Whilst environmental factors play a big part in helping you nod off nicely, what we wear to bed can also drastically change this; after all, not everyone likes to sleep in the nude. Let us introduce you to The Oodie’s latest sleepwear range, which has been designed not only for warm nights but slow mornings, cosy evenings and relaxed moments throughout the day. Leopard Strappy Nightdress Looking to inject a little personality into your nightwear drawer? The Oodie's Leopard Strappy Nightdress is an easy win. The bold animal print taps into one of fashion's most enduring trends, while the strappy silhouette, adjustable straps and frill hem give it a flattering, feminine feel. More importantly for the current heatwave, it's crafted from the brand's cooling modal fabric, which is designed to be softer than silk and more breathable than cotton, making it a great option for hot, sticky nights when comfort is non-negotiable. At £55, it's the kind of sleepwear you'll find yourself reaching for long after summer ends Buy Now for £55 Famous for their oversized winter hoodies, the brand has expanded its Sleep Tee line, adding four new silhouettes: Tank Nighties, Scoop Neck Nighties, V-Neck Sleep Tees, and Button Up Sleep Tees. Each of the new items is constructed from the brand’s cooling modal fabric, which was chosen to feel soft against the skin and lightweight to prevent the insulation of your body heat. These are something that you won’t want to take off when the temperatures soar. Ask Metro Use AI to go deeper into the stories you care about – powered by Metro and trusted publications. The four new silhouettes have been specifically designed so that anyone can find their favourite look. If you prefer more coverage, then the V-Neck Sleep Tees will be best. Whereas, if you like a little more structure and fit in your nightwear, then opt for the Button Up Sleep Tees. The Tank Nighties and Scoop Neck Nighties are brilliant for those who like to keep things minimal and breathable. Each of the styles comes in two design choices. Our personal favourite has to be the leopard tank nightdress, which retails for £55, and effortlessly ticks the popular animal-print trend that everyone can’t get enough of. We’re also big fans of the Berry Button Up Nightshirt costing £65. Besides, the rich red tone being a big colour trend for summer 2026, the white piping details elevate the overall design, making it look more expensive than its price tag. The cut of the nightshirt is super flattering as it cuts just above the knee so you won’t be fighting with the hemline. The brand is also running a deal where if you buy two of the new styles, you can save 30%. We’ll be immediately adding these to our shopping basket.
