Comfort is back, and this new-to-John Lewis loungewear brand has everything you'll need to relax in style this autumn
Finally, loungewear season is here, and Mamu has your laid-back autumn/winter wardrobe sorted
The weather has finally turned, and I don't know about you, but I can't wait for cosy season to properly begin. And to celebrate the return of nights on the sofa, nothing says autumn-ready like new pyjamas and loungewear, and I've got just the brand in mind.
Launching for the first time on John Lewis, Mamu is the 15-piece 'restwear' collection that should be on your capsule wardrobe shopping list. The brainchild of former clothing director at The White Company and Jigsaw, Barbara Horspool and her daughter Talula Hewitt, have created a laidback but elegant range that will help you feel comfortably put together.
Brushed cotton pjs, alpaca hoodies, kimono robes and breathable nightdresses cover what you'll slip into as soon as your day is done. And with a host of natural fabrics, there is certainly comfort at the forefront of this collection. Just a year old, Mamu is making its mark on the loungewear world, but in an arena often dominated by sweatpants, expect straight-legged cuts, timeless pale pink, cream and blue colourways and comfortable, classic shapes that you can wear year in, year out.
New-in at John Lewis, the department store regularly brings exciting, independent brands to the forefront and this is a fantastic platform for Mamu, who has just celebrated its first birthday. This largely modal pyjama set has a breathable finish, but a relaxed silhouette that you can wear for lounging or add a hoodie and trainers for heading out.
This soft pastel pink is big news this autumn, and while I love it with the white and blue striped trousers, just imaging it paired with your most comfortable jeans for a warming, weekend outfit idea. The waffle-style knit adds texture and interest to this sporty number that you'll turn to on repeat this autumn/winter.
This cardigan is too nice to keep at home, but the soft grey hue does make it an excellent candidate for more relaxed looks, while the stitch detailing down the sleeve allows you to weave it into smart casual outfit ideas. Just imagine this beauty slipped over a white shirt and paired with some jeans and boots, autumn, sorted.
It's the added detail that sets the Mamu loungewear looks apart. Listed as pjs, of course you can wear this duo to bed, but thanks to the sweet tie detail, you absolutely could take this top out of the house too, on more relaxed outings. Now that the temperature has dipped, it's now time for long pjs all the way through winter.
A wool alpaca blend robe, that doubles as a long knitted cardigan, this is a great alternative to a coat in autumn weather. As long as it isn't raining, pull this over shirts, t-shirts, pair it with jeans or cargo pants for a more cosy, soft look as the cooler weather sets in for the long haul.
There's something so elegant and timeless about classic cotton pyjamas. When it comes to the best restwear, you can't go wrong with specific pyjama brands, such as Mamu, as they truly understand what you need for the best night's sleep. Crafted from cotton, these tick the breathability box perfectly.
For a luxe look that still has comfort and breathability at its heart, this pyjama set will make getting ready for bed feel super fancy. The pretty floral print, long pant and silky robe is a great gift or self gift in the run up to the festive season too. You could even team the jacket over a cami with jeans for added versatility, to max out that cost per wear.
With a lace trim and two front patch pockets, this mid length robe is a great overlay to numerous loungewear pieces in the range, or as an addition to your existing bedtime looks. Pretty and practical, it delivers the best of both.
I love the sleeves, faux-shirt front design on this classic pair of cotton pyjamas. If keeping cool at night is big on your sleepwear agenda, then this set is a brilliant option from now and into late spring. The striped design ensures a timeless buy too.
With ageless style at its heart, Mamu is here for when your 9-5 finishes. Packaging elegance with comfort is exactly how we want to dress in 2026. With nods to athleisure, thanks to soft hoodies and relaxed trousers, Mamu categorises the collection as 'Restwear', adding a relaxed, sporty feel to autumn outfit ideas.
Whether it's in bed, on the sofa or nipping to the shops, the soft pink, white and blue palette nods to the latest autumn/winter fashion colour trends for 2026 but keeps a timeless feel, ensuring your cosy weather buy can be worn for many seasons to come.
Most importantly, beyond style is the use of natural, breathable fabrics, something that can be hard to track down on the high street. Summer might be over, but a great night's sleep still requires breathability, and I love that the pyjamas use modal and cotton to ensure air circulation, because comfort and style should always go hand in hand.
