Size guide

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 New Zealand standards and corresponding to the size chart below.

MEASURING TIPS:

Measure the fullest part of the bust and hips. Keep the tape measure firm, but not tight and measure over your undergarment.

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.

    Soft luxurious breathable and menopause approved

    I just purchased this set sadly for silly me as my glasses were broken. I got the top in a small and the pants in an extra small and I didn’t realise when they arrived. I took the tags off them put them in the wash after retrieving them from the clothesline I put them on and realise the pants are too small due to having broken glasses. I ordered the wrong size in the pants. Sadly they don’t fit but the top is super soft. It’s a beautiful buttery cream colour absolutely the perfect clothes for lounging around the home or just dashing off to the shops.. absolutely highly recommend the Kate Modal set and I truly hope this set comes out in more colours super light absolute perfect and cooling for the body during menopause and that is five stars on its own

    Hi Sam,

    Thank you so much for this wonderful review!

    We are thrilled to hear that the Kate Modal Soft Tee is a five-star favourite for you. It is fantastic to know that the breathable modal fabric is providing that perfect cooling effect, especially during menopause, as there is truly nothing better than feeling comfortable and regulated throughout the day and night!

    We are so sorry to hear about the mix-up with your glasses and the sizing on the pants. Because the items have been washed and the tags removed, we unfortunately cannot accept them for a return. However, we would still love to see if there is anything we can do to help you get into the right fit so you can fully enjoy the complete set. Please reach out to our team at info@papinelle.com, and we will do our best to assist with your sizing enquiry.

    Thank you for the high recommendation and the colour suggestions. We hope you continue to love that buttery cream top! ❤️
