It was some time in 2013 when pajama sets began making their debut on the streets. With celebrities and street style aficionados sporting sleepwear outside the bedroom, this comfy trend was that year’s most controversial.

It’s not something one can easily pull off, after all, so the trend didn’t really last that long.

But it looks like the pajama trend is making a come-back. It’s been spotted multiple times on the fashion runways and several celebrities have also started wearing their lounge pants out in public.

But worry not. These aren’t your teddy bear-printed pajamas we’re talking about. They’re more sophisticated, less eyebrow-raising sets that will still have you screaming pajamas but not outright repulse your polished sensibilities.

Let’s check out some celebrities who have already started wearing the trend:

1. Selena Gomez in Navy Pajamas

The 23-year-old made her pair of Derek Rose “Lombard” navy jacquard piped pajamas look sophisticated by dressing them up with a pair of red Brian Atwood “Tamara” sandals and matching red lips.

2. Heidi Klum in Striped Sleepwear

The German model decided there’s no substitute for comfort as she boarded a plane in a striped pajama set that she capped off with a pair of slippers.

She did make the outfit look less like sleepwear by accessorizing heavily. Do you like her black ‘Scott Moon’ leather crossbody bag from Elizabeth and James?

3. Chloe Sims in Silk Pajamas

The 32-year-old TV personality put a lot of effort into making her silk pajamas look more elegant. She teamed them up with a pair of pumps and a fringed bag.
