Size Chart

The best way to find your correct size is to get the size of your daywear clothing and then check it against our chart below. We make it easy by making our garments X-Small, Small, Medium, Large or X-Large. For example if you're a Size 12 then we recommend a Medium.

The greatest thing about buying sleepwear online is that you can't go wrong with sizing if you follow this chart. Papinelle sleepwear is designed with 'easy-fit' features such as elastic waistbands or adjustable straps to ensure that they fit a majority of figure types.

If you want to double-check your size take a moment to measure yourself and then use these measurements to choose the correct Papinelle size for you.

Papinelle takes great care in ensuring all sizes are to Australian standards and corresponding to the size chart below.

HOW TO MEASURE:

  • Bust: Measure around the upper body, under the armpits and over the fullest part of your bust.
  • Waist: measure around the narrowest part of your waist, and bend to one side to find the natural crease of your waistline.
  • Hips: measure around the fullest / widest part of your hips.

Why choose modal?

There’s good reason why we love Tencel™ Modal, and you will, too. With its fine, long-lasting softness and featherlike touch, it also has a particularly beautiful, natural drape and boasts long-lasting colour retention. Modal is structured to regulate the absorption and release of moisture, contributing to fabric breathability that supports the body’s natural thermal regulation. Gentle on the skin, its production process is also environmentally sound. Our Tencel™ Modal fibres are primarily manufactured from renewable beech wood sourced from sustainable forests in Austria and neighbouring countries. Tencel™ Modal fibres are biodegradable, meaning they can fully revert back to nature.

    Wonderfully comfortable

    This is the second I’ve purchased. Soft, flattering and modest enough to answer the door in if needed :)

    Hi Melissa,

    It is the ultimate compliment when a piece is so good that you have to come back for a second one!

    We love that this style hits the "trifecta" of sleepwear: soft, flattering, and modest. There is a certain peace of mind that comes with knowing you can answer the door or lounge around the house comfortably without needing to rush for a robe.

    Thank you for your feedback on the versatility of the fit. It’s wonderful to know you feel as confident wearing it as you do comfortable! 💕

    Gray summer nightie

    Lovely soft fabric as with all my Papinelle sleepwear. Nice loose and flowy generously sized nightie so it’s really comfy for sleeping in. I really like this colour. It’s nice to have a deep colour that’s not black.

    Hi Fiona,

    It is so good to hear that the grey is a hit! A deep colour like that is such a nice alternative when you want something dark but want to switch it up from your usual black.

    We are glad the loose, flowy fit is working for you, too. There is nothing better than a bit of extra room to keep things breezy and comfortable while you sleep. Thank you for your feedback on the fabric; it is great to know it is living up to the softness you expect from your Papinelle collection! 💕
