Oprah Winfrey's annual Oprah's Favorite Things list is basically the Oscars of consumer products—make the cut, and you're guaranteed to fly off shelves faster than you can say "You get a car!" This year, the SKIMS Soft Lounge Sleep Set snagged a spot, and Oprah didn't just give it a polite nod. She went on record saying, "I have three pairs of these, and I'm not done. They're whisper-soft, easy to move in, easy to live in—the kind of set you never want to take off." Three pairs! And she's not stopping there! If the media mogul/our national treasure (who has access to literally every luxury pajama brand on the planet) is hoarding these like they're about to be discontinued, that should tell you everything. And as someone who also owns this set and refuses to take it off, I'm here to confirm: the hype is real! Consider this your sign to add it to your holiday gift list.
Truly, this is hands-down the comfiest pajama set I've ever owned—and I'm including every overpriced loungewear brand you've seen all over Instagram. The fabric feels genuinely luxurious and cooling, with this perfect, satisfying weight that's substantial without being heavy. It's like that Goldilocks moment where everything just hits right. I reach for it constantly—for sleeping, for working from home, for existing on a Sunday when leaving the house feels like an Olympic sport. I'm already plotting which color to buy next.
The set comes with a classic menswear-inspired sleep top (think: front button closure, chest patch pocket, locker loops for hanging) and matching sleep pants. It's made from SKIMS' viral Soft Lounge fabric—91% modal, 9% elastane—which translates to breathable, stretchy, ribbed perfection. The brand rates it five out of five for softness and breathability, four out of five for stretch, and two out of five for weight, meaning it's lightweight but still has that premium, substantial feel.

You can snag it in everything from classic Heather Grey and Black to limited-edition shades like pink and forest green, and sizes run from XXS to 4X. At $128, it's definitely an investment—but it's the kind that pays dividends every single time you put it on. Fair warning: it's already selling fast (because, duh, Oprah), so if you want to give the gift of actually good loungewear this holiday season, move quickly. Machine wash cold, lay flat to dry, and prepare to join Oprah's three-pairs-and-counting club.
