What We Do

Petite Plume was inspired by the desire to create sophisticated and comfortable sleepwear in the most exquisite cotton available. In this elegant range of sleepwear, you will see elements of classic colors and styles reminiscent of a bygone era.

The finest attention to detail can be seen throughout the range, from engraved buttons and tuck pointing to handwritten gift cards and customized packaging, making them the ideal gift. Add a monogram to make it even more memorable.

Adult sleepwear:
Our adult collection is made from 100% of the finest cotton. The fabric is preshrunk and yarn-dyed to prevent fade. The superior fabric is then brushed for added softness and gets cozier with each wash.

Children's sleepwear:
We are proud that our children's sleepwear is made with the finest quality cotton and blended with just enough inherently flame retardant fiber to allow our sleepwear to pass strict CPSC regulations without the use of harmful chemicals. The fabric is preshrunk and yarn-dyed to prevent fade. The superior fabric is then brushed for added softness and gets cozier with each wash.

Bonne nuit, ma petite plume
