Lotus
Lotus is The Foundation’s own in-house label, offering timeless sleepwear and lingerie in silk and cotton. Originally launched as an exclusive silk range at Lin & Barrett Lingerie, Lotus has grown into a full sleepwear collection featuring beautiful Indian cotton nighties, pyjamas and robes. It’s a celebration of comfort, breathability and quiet luxury—all designed by our local Australian team.
The Lotus Silk Collection is made from 100% mulberry silk in a durable 19 momme weight—known for its softness, breathability and beautiful sheen. We offer a curated capsule of camisoles, slips, robes and pyjamas that are elegant yet functional. For a stunning set, pair the Kelly Silk Camisole with the matching Kelly Tap Pant. These make gorgeous gifts or indulgent treats for yourself.
The Lotus Cotton Sleepwear range is a fresh addition, designed for lovers of natural fabrics. Inspired by favourites like Arabella, Papinelle, Givoni and Victoria’s Dream, our Lotus cotton range includes strappy nighties, cap sleeves, short sleeves and long sleeve options. Made from lightweight Indian cotton, it’s ideal for hot sleepers and balmy Australian nights.
Need a thoughtful gift for a woman going through night sweats or just running warm? A 100% cotton strappy nightie or silk chemise makes a practical yet stylish solution. Breathable and moisture-wicking, these fabrics help regulate temperature while keeping you feeling beautiful. Some of our styles also come with matching Lotus robes for that added layer of luxe.
Designed with love, made to last—Lotus is all about comfort, ease, and quiet confidence. Thank you for supporting our family-owned Australian brand.
Is Lotus sleepwear made in Australia?
Lotus is designed in Australia by our in-house team and manufactured by trusted global makers using high-quality silk and cotton. We work closely with suppliers to ensure craftsmanship, ethical production, and a focus on natural fibres. The result? Beautiful pieces with heart, made for everyday luxury. It’s our way of bringing thoughtful sleepwear to Australian women. Our Lotus Cotton Sleepwear and Resort wear is made in India where we source only the finest quality cotton. Our Lotus Cotton Silk and modal sleepwear is made in China.
What’s the difference between Lotus silk and cotton collections?
Our Lotus silk collection is made from 100% mulberry silk—smooth, strong and luxurious with a 19 momme weight. It’s ideal for sleepwear and lingerie that feels indulgent. The cotton collection features lightweight Indian cotton in a variety of cuts for all seasons. Both lines are breathable and soft, but silk has more drape and sheen while cotton feels crisp and cool. Choose what suits your lifestyle and comfort preferences.
Is Lotus good for hot sleepers or menopause?
Yes. Both silk and cotton are natural, breathable fabrics with moisture-wicking qualities, making them excellent for women experiencing night sweats or hormonal shifts. Our lightweight cotton nighties and silk chemises help regulate body temperature and reduce discomfort during the night. If you’re seeking relief from hot flashes, these fabrics offer a cool and soothing solution while still feeling stylish and comfortable.
Can I mix and match Lotus pieces?
Absolutely. Many of our camisoles, tap pants, robes and slips are designed to be styled together. You can create your own sets or pair items seasonally for year-round comfort. Our colour palette is soft and versatile, making it easy to coordinate. Whether you’re lounging, sleeping, or gifting, the mix-and-match approach adds flexibility and a personal touch to your wardrobe.
How should I wash Lotus sleepwear?
For silk pieces, hand wash in cold water using a silk-safe detergent and air dry flat. For cotton sleepwear, use a gentle machine cycle in cold or lukewarm water. Avoid tumble drying and harsh detergents to preserve the integrity of the fabric. With proper care, both silk and cotton items from Lotus will maintain their softness and beauty for many seasons to come.
