Hi, I need a fairly quick shortlist of good silk pillowcases (from reputable stores/sites, not cheaply made, or fake polyester satin etc, time sensitive so preferably within a week delivery). In particular if anyone has any of the lilysilk ones and how they are? I would have gone directly to lilysilk at the top of the list , and whilst I like their silk the quality of their silk bonnets has not impressed me; I bought two different styles and the elastic went on both after a quite short period. However I have a beautiful pair of long pjs (a gift and which I’m too fat for! Sob) and the silk is lovely with those, I haven’t been able to wear/wash those much due to rather quickly becoming too much of a massive heffer, and so do not know how they’d be after a while. But I still keep coming back to them to look at their pillowcases, so if anyone has any I’d love to know how you find them, and also which ones you have.
I would also like to know what other brands have been bought and can be recommended.
My preferable list of needs/wants (these will be a gift for me, but not from me, I just need to find some to put on my wishlist):
- preferably 20 momme or above
- silk on top and underneath (not a silk top with cotton under)
- the smooth side of the silk on both - not the matte side on the bottom
- typical 75-50cm (standard size for uk pillows)
- maybe machine washable, I wash bonnets etc by had usually but have also machine washed
- i think I’d prefer plain to oxford or patterned silk, unless it is a beautiful pattern, not just something g like boring stripes (unless a beautiful colour)
- a selction of colours to choose from - would usually go for a silver/grey, but maybe also some bright jewel tones for something different, rather than the usual pastel/light colours, but not so important
- zippered would be good, but not against envelope
- Any current deals like bogof, or half price
- i think that’s pretty much it really.
I may be being totally U just for posting for traffic, but time pressure.
So thank you if you’ve read this far - I know it’s turned out long - and can help me out, also, am I allowed to post in more than one topic at the same time, as wondering if style & beauty might also be a good place to post.
Thank you 🤗

eta: can’t change the title but I meant a quick response please, not a quick read, as you can see, sorry 😁 also, how do I turn the poll off? Apologies if that’s still there but let’s say I am being unreasonable because I want good quality because they’ll be a gift for me so someone else is paying, I am not being unreasonable because if you can’t ask for a luxury item as a gift, when can you? And the gift giver is totally prepared! 😁
