Archive by The Sleep Shirt is a limited edition collection created to commemorate the 10th anniversary of The Sleep Shirt. Founded by Central Saint Martins alumni Alexandra Suhner Isenberg in 2012, the brand launched with a single nightshirt whose design was based on a classic 19th century men’s chemise – the most comfortable and stylish thing she had ever slept in. Classic, timeless and beautiful, the Archive Collection reflects what The Sleep Shirt represents: well-made garments that stand the test of time. Read more about the collection.
The night shirt that started it all for The Sleep Shirt ten years ago. The Martine Nightshirt takes design elements like the three quarter button placket, the traditional shirt collar and creates them in our favourite cottons and linens. We love this kind of delicate white cotton shirting at The Sleep Shirt, this one is soft to the touch and surprisingly lightweight.
