Best Loungewear to Travel In

It should come as no surprise that we're firmly in the camp of traveling in both comfort and style. Whether you're catching an international flight or simply driving home for the weekend, your experience will be infinitely better if you feel at ease, confident, and completely satisfied with your outfit of choice. When we want to marry comfort and style for traveling, we look to the category of loungewear. The ultimate travel loungewear should fall under one or more of the following categories: anti-wrinkle, anti-fuzz, machine-washable, transitional, and versatile. We don't want to travel in our cozy but desperately un-fabulous Christmas thermal pajamas or those worn-thin leggings and an old hoodie. Waistbands should be supportive and firm, not overly tight and restrictive. Sweaters should be soft and breathable; you don't want to be sweating more than necessary as you book it through the terminal before the gate closes. And while those cashmere sets look incredible on that model (and feel just as divine), you'll immediately regret spending the cash on something that has to be hand-washed before re-wearing it for the return journey. That said, we've narrowed down our winners—the loungewear that promises comfort and a paparazzi-worthy moment at departures and arrivals, a la Eva Chen. Below, see our picks for the best loungewear to travel in. Best Loungewear for Women: Tops Brands like Cuyana , Everlane , and Summersalt have loungewear down to a science.
