V front, adjustable straps, A line cut to mid thigh.
A short satin slip with a V front, thin adjustable straps and an A line skirt that falls to about mid thigh.
The fabric is a polyester satin with a little acrylic, which is what gives it the fluid drape and the sheen at this price.
It is a simple shape with nothing structured in it, so it packs into almost no space and takes no ironing to speak of.

It is short. The A line skirt falls to around mid thigh on most people.
Is this real silk?
No. It is satin, which is a weave, and this one is 95% polyester with 5% acrylic. The mulberry silk range on this site is the natural fibre.
What size is it?
The listing sells one size and the supplier's measurements are not published, which we would rather say than estimate. Email us before ordering and we will read the actual measurement off the piece we would send.
Are the straps adjustable?
Yes, thin straps with sliders, so the length of the bodice can be set to suit you.
Is there any support built in?
No. It is an unlined slip with no cups, no wire and no elastic under the bust.
Is it see through?
No. Polyester satin is opaque in both of these colours.
What colours are there?
Black and red.
Is the red bright?
It is a strong red rather than a deep wine. It photographs close to how it looks.
Can I wear it under a dress?
Yes, that is the other reason people buy this shape. A satin slip stops a dress clinging, and the A line cut sits flat under most things.
Can I machine wash it?
Yes, cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and no bleach. A mesh bag protects the straps.
Can it go in the tumble dryer?
Low heat at most, and it barely needs it. It is a light piece and dries in an hour on a rail.
Does it need ironing?
Rarely. If you do iron it, keep the setting cool: polyester scorches and the mark is permanent.
Will it fade?
The old listing promised it never fades and we have taken that off, because no dye is permanent. Polyester holds colour better than most fibres, and keeping it out of prolonged direct sun is what makes the difference.
Will it pill?
Polyester satin can pill where it rubs, at the underarm or under a bag strap. Washing cool and drying flat is what prevents it.
Does it snag?
It can, on rings and rough nails, as any smooth woven fabric does.
Is it warm?
Not particularly. It is a summer weight piece with bare shoulders.
Is it good for hot sleepers?
The cut is, because there is very little of it. The fabric itself holds heat more than a natural fibre, so if that is your main problem the mulberry silk range is the better answer.
Is it hypoallergenic?
We make no such claim.
Does it come with a robe?
No, it is sold on its own. There is a women's satin robe on this site if you want to layer over it.
Is it a good gift?
It is bought as one often. Since the listing has no size choice, it is worth reading the size answer above before you buy it for someone else.
Can I have it embroidered?
Yes. Embroidery and monogramming is a separate item on this site and goes on the same order.
How does it compare to the pyjama sets?
It is one piece rather than two, much shorter, and less to wear. The satin pyjama sets cover arms and legs.
Why is it cheaper than the pyjama sets?
There is far less fabric in it and no buttons or collar to construct.
How much is delivery?
The current price is €49 including VAT. We dispatch within 2 working days. Delivery then takes up to 7 working days by tracked courier. Delivery in Ireland is free on orders of €75 or more, or €25 including VAT below that.
How long does delivery take?

What if it arrives faulty?
Eligible online purchases have a 14-day cancellation period from delivery. See our refunds and returns policy for the process, exceptions and your statutory rights.
Do you sell a longer nightdress?
Not in this fabric today. The satin pyjama sets are the covered option, and the silk range has a longer robe.
Do you ship discreetly?
Parcels are plain and carry no description of the contents on the outside.
Do you sell in bulk?
Yes, there is a wholesale page, and it is worth contacting us directly for quantities.

One piece, very little of it
This is a short satin slip: a V front, thin straps with sliders so you can set
the length of the bodice, and an A line skirt that falls to around mid thigh.
There is nothing structured in it, no cups, no wire and no elastic under the bust,
which is what keeps it comfortable to sleep in.
Two colours, black and red. The listing sells a single size, and the honest
position is set out below.
What it is made of
Satin describes the weave, not the fibre, and this one is 95% polyester with
5% acrylic.
It is not silk, and if the natural fibre is what you are after, the mulberry silk
range on this site is where to look.
The old listing said the colour never fades. No dye is permanent, so that line
has gone. What is true is that polyester holds colour better than most fibres, and
keeping it out of long spells of direct sunlight is what preserves it.
Size, and what we do not know
This listing has always sold in one size, and the supplier's measurements are
not published anywhere we can point you at. Rather than print a bust figure we
have not verified, we would sooner tell you and get the answer. Email us before
ordering and we will measure the piece we would actually send you.
Living with it
Cold gentle wash with a mild detergent, no bleach, and a mesh bag to protect
the straps. It dries on a rail in about an hour. If it needs pressing, keep the
iron cool, because polyester scorches and the mark does not come out. If you want
something to layer over it, the
women's satin robe is in the same part of the shop.
