The collaboration is the result of Umit Benan’s friendship with Milanese designer Francesca Ruffini who has elevated pajamas and loungewear into For Restless Sleepers, a highly coveted brand of deluxe pieces evoking a leisurely and rarefied lifestyle to be worn inside and outside the house.

The Umit Benan x F.R.S co-branded line plays on contrasts and a very different conception of homewear: whereas Francesca Ruffini’s pajamas are a very refined affair of exquisite prints and effortless feminine shapes one could see strolling down the streets of Capri in the early evening, Umit Benan adds his eccentric take on a piece of clothing that is very much a staple of his own wardrobe
