Quick answer
Wash your Eberjey washable silk printed pajama set in cold water on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent, then air dry away from direct heat to protect the print and fabric.
Why printed silk needs a gentle touch
Printed silk sleepwear, like the Inez Washable Silk Printed Long PJ Set, uses dyes and patterns that can fade or bleed if handled roughly. The Winter Bloom print on a deep Cabernet and Navy background is especially sensitive to high heat and harsh detergents. Gentle care keeps the colors vibrant and the silk smooth.

Washable silk is still real mulberry silk — it’s just processed to withstand machine washing better than traditional silk. That doesn’t mean it’s indestructible. Skipping the precautions can lead to dull prints, fabric pilling, or loss of that soft hand feel.
Step-by-step care routine
- Pre-treat stains immediately: Spot-clean any stains with a drop of mild detergent and cool water before washing. Gently dab — don’t rub — to avoid spreading the ink or damaging the silk fibers. Common mistake: rubbing a stain can set it permanently or create a faded spot on the print.
- Machine wash on delicate cycle: Place the pajama set inside a mesh laundry bag to protect the print from snagging. Use cold water and a gentle cycle with a mild, silk-safe detergent. Avoid fabric softener and bleach. Checkpoint: always zip the bag closed and don’t overload the washer — the set needs room to move freely.
- Air dry flat or on a low-heat setting: Lay the set flat on a clean towel or drying rack away from direct sunlight and radiators. If you must use a dryer, select the lowest heat setting and remove while still slightly damp. Common mistake: high heat can shrink the silk and cause the print to crack or fade. Never wring or twist the fabric.
- Iron on low if needed: If wrinkles appear after drying, iron the silk on the lowest setting while it’s still slightly damp. Place a pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric to protect the print. Checkpoint: never use steam directly on the print — it can loosen the dye and cause bleeding.
