Mokka Long Pyjama: How to Choose and Care for Your Set

Quick answer

Choose your usual size for a relaxed fit, then wash the set inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle and air-dry it to protect the cotton-modal top and the long leg.

Step-by-step: choose, wash and dry your long pyjama set

1. Pick your size by the waist, not the label: Try the set on and sit, bend and stretch. The elastic waist should stay flat and the long leg should clear your ankle without dragging. If the waist rolls or digs in, go up a size. A waistband that twists when new will keep twisting after washing.
2. Fasten buttons and turn the set inside out: Close the decorative button placket and turn both pieces inside out before washing. This protects the buttons and reduces surface friction on the cotton-modal top. Unfastened buttons can snag the fabric in the drum.
3. Wash cold on a gentle cycle: Use a mild detergent and cold water on a delicate or gentle cycle. Avoid bleach and fabric softener, which can coat modal fibers and reduce softness over time. Hot water is the most common cause of shrinkage and color fade in modal blends.
4. Skip the tumble dryer: Reshape the top and pant while damp and hang or lay flat to air-dry. If you must use a dryer, choose the lowest heat setting and remove the set while slightly damp. High heat can shrink the long leg and stiffen the elastic waist.
5. Store folded, not on a hanger: Fold the set flat in a drawer. Hanging a long pyjama pant by the waist can stretch the elastic over time. A stretched waistband is hard to reverse, so fold rather than hang.
