Finding the perfect girls' loungewear can seem complex, given the vast range of fabrics and brands on the market. The trick is to look for loungewear sets that combine premium comfort, exceptional quality, and sustainability, ensuring your daughter's clothes are both comfortable and ethical.
We’ve created this buying guide to make your purchasing decisions easier, listing all the features we’d consider a priority–all of which, of course, you’ll find built into our luxurious teen loungewear range!
1. Pick Organic, Natural Fibers Over Synthetics
Organic cotton is one of the best fabrics for girls’ loungewear. It’s natural and free of chemicals and pesticides, making it ideal for younger, sensitive skin.
- The absence of chemicals used in organic cotton farming eliminates any potential irritation or sensitivities associated with pesticides.
- Cotton is breathable and lightweight, which means your girl's loungewear won't cause sweating or make her feel clammy and overheated.
- Gentle, organic cotton fibers become smoother and softer in time, ensuring your daughter's loungewear becomes even comfier with each wash.
If your teen has very sensitive skin, we strongly recommend buying organic loungewear, as this is the most sensible way to avoid rashes and redness.
2. Look for Sustainable, Responsible Teen Brands
Eco-friendly loungewear is always preferable to mass-produced fast fashion, but what makes loungewear sustainable for girls? In reality, all these features that guarantee your daughter’s loungewear will feel great to wear are also likely to mean you're looking at a value-driven brand.
Organic, plant-based fabrics, smaller manufacturing processes, and US-made credentials mean loungewear is comfortable and ethical. Our loungewear sets are made right here in California by a wonderful, family-run factory that shares our passion for high-quality teen clothing.
3. Select Small-Batch Produced Loungewear
Premium loungewear sets, crafted in smaller batches, adhere to the highest quality standards. Craftspeople can quality control each garment without producing hundreds of thousands of pieces an hour, many of which may have defects or faulty stitching.
Carefully-made loungewear for teens is produced with exacting attention to detail, ensuring your daughter won't encounter itchy loose threads or annoying gathers in the fabric.
4. Buy Loungewear in Colors and Styles Your Daughter Will Love
Even the comfiest loungewear might be consigned to the back of a drawer if your daughter doesn't feel confident in it! You can have a quick browse of her closet to refresh your idea of the shades she wears most often.
We've incorporated everything from on-trend bright jewel hues and shades that pop to cute pastels and neutrals, giving parents a range of choices. Your daughter can mix and match sets in the same palette or opt for a classic monochrome look, which is easy to pair with anything.
5. Check for Loungewear Designed Specifically for Teens and Tweens
Finally, and importantly, ensure you're buying teen loungewear that has been specifically designed for girls. Many brands use standardized adult sizing and simply cut smaller panels of fabric for their teen and tween ranges.
The issue with this is that girls grow at very different rates, and it's incredibly common for sized-down sets to feel awkward to wear. They might have sleeves that are too short or too long, leg lengths that need to be repeatedly pulled down, or tees and shirts that ride up.
It's also well worth looking at sizing charts that offer more detailed information than simply sizes XS to XL, as every mom knows that girls of a similar age can vary significantly in height and build. Yellowberry provides in-depth size charts for all our premium loungewear, including measurements, guidance on how to check the right size for your daughter, and columns to show the corresponding generic size in other brands.
