For spring summer 09, there was a definite appearance of bedtime wear. Not the boudoir, baby doll variety but more that of a refined gentleman. Pyjama trousers were part of the day time wear. The loose fitting, satin trousers with retro style polka dots or stripes had a definite relaxed feel about them, whilst still being very elegant. I love this look as it is a comfortable and easy to wear style. However petites such as myself, need to watch out that the trouser legs are too wide as we will look completely out of proportion. The floor length rather than ankle skimming variety of pyjama trousers are also a much more flattering and leg lengthening option.
I would suggest wearing the pyjama trousers with sandals or heels, a fitted jacket and quite a bit of glitzy jewellery to prove that you are not ready for bed quite yet.
You can create your own version of this look by teaming some mens pyjama trousers with a smart blazer.
