The Appeal of Silk Pyjamas 

Silk or silk satin pyjamas, when migrated in the bedroom, represent style and femininity. Eternally elegant and amenable to every silhouette, the feeling of silk next to the skin is smooth and silky, leading to a peaceful night’s sleep.  So, what is the fascination and appeal with this luxurious nightwear?

·   For starters, satin pajamas can be machine-washed nowadays, this is an added bonus as it is a timer saver, however, please read the label for natural silk – as opposed to a synthetic fabric (satin) – requires hand-washing so as not to destroy the fabric and avoid shrinkage. As well as adding a feminine, timeless elegance to your nightwear, it does throw glamour into the mix. You can even go as far as saying it outshines the little black dress, but shhh don’t tell any anyone.

·   There will always be debates about whether to choose silk or cotton, do you want the sexy kitten look or the comfy mommy look? One thing that is certain is that wearing silky pajamas will transform your nightwear collection and give you the indulgent look you want.

·   It’s traditionally thought in China that silk is completely neutral in nature and non-poisonous, as it doesn’t irritate the skin. Almost all silk is from the silkworm, which feeds on mulberry plants. The process of making silk originated in ancient China, and it is only since the production spread throughout Europe during the industrial revolution that the silk industry in China has had competition, and has since been suffering with the development of synthetic fibres.

·   Jennifer Lopez, Elizabeth Taylor, Grace Kelly and even Marilyn Monroe have all spoken about or been photographed wearing silky pyjamas, so if you want to feel like a movie star living up in Beverley Hills, you know what to wear. If however you don’t want to feel like a movie star, at least when putting on a set of silky pajamas you know you are in good hands and feel comfortable knowing that even movie stars can see the appeal of wearing this luxurious apparel.

Silk pajamas are the perfect present to give to your love one this year, so why don’t you add an extra bonus and perhaps gift wrap it.
