Buying guide

Momme weight

19 momme is the sweet spot — durable enough for regular wear, light enough to drape. 22 momme is the most luxe.

Mulberry silk

Grade 6A long-strand mulberry silk is the gold standard. Avoid 'silk-feel' polyester.

Care

Hand-wash cold with silk-safe detergent or dry-clean. Air-dry flat away from sunlight.

Frequently asked questions

Are silk pyjamas worth it?+

If you sleep hot, have sensitive skin or want to reduce facial creasing and hair friction, silk is a genuine upgrade. The cost-per-wear is high but the experience is unmatched.

Can you machine wash silk pyjamas?+

Only if the brand confirms 'washable silk' — Lunya, Papinelle and some Ginia styles are designed for gentle machine wash. Otherwise hand-wash cold or dry-clean.

Where can I buy silk pyjamas in Australia?+

Peter Alexander, Ginia, Papinelle, David Jones and Net-a-Porter all stock real mulberry silk pyjamas Australia-wide.
