January. The month for staying in, saving, maybe a detox. Certainly, the ultimate time for 'lounging'. And what better way to lounge than in the splendid silk pyjama sets by Olivia Von Halle. I'm a nightwear snob. I'll admit it. I love a nightie. I like the naughtiness of a man's dress shirt. When it comes to dressing gowns towelling terrifies me, I like a waffle cotton or my beloved cashmere one. So it's inevitable that my taste in pyjamas would follow and these are a SERIOUS treat. But just imagine getting home after a long day, pouring yourself a stiff drink perhaps and reclining in one of these sublime sets.
Inspired by the lounging pyjamas of the 1920's, most notably by Coco Chanel, Olivia launched her label in 2011 and quickly became a Fashion Editor favourite. In an array of candy and regal hues, some printed, some with a simple contrast piping, these silk delicates can be monogrammed with your initials or a significant date perhaps. Von Halle enrols esteemed embroidery specialist Hand & Lock, who worked on the royal wedding, to do this by hand. The pj's are stocked online and in the very best of retailers worldwide - Harrods, Fortnum & Mason and Fenwick to name a few.
So, all there is for it is to invest and throw one HELL of a pyjama party.
