Sleeping on silk has a touch of 1970s decadence about it and if you’re one of the many of us who wakes up looking bedraggled – creases on your face and wild bed head hair courtesy of static electricity – then maybe it’s time to spoil yourself and invest in a silk pillow case.
“You will look far more groomed when you get up in the morning,” assures Eva Power of The Ethical Silk Company, whose range also includes tops and scarves made using Indian mulberry silk.
The cases come in basic and Oxford styles, €45 and €55 respectively, and are machine washable (theethicalsilkco.com). Alanna Gallagher
