Paco Rabanne was a Spanish designer who became known as "l'enfant terrible (unruly child) of the 1960s French fashion world. He began making jewellery in unusual materials for many of the French couturiers and in 1964 at the age of 30 presented his first collection. In 1966 he had his breakout show: “Twelve Unwearable Dresses in Contemporary Materials.” and it was with this show that he found his calling. He was quoted as saying “sewing is a bondage,” and made his dresses out of paper, plastic and metal, which were pieced together with wire and glue. By 1968 some of the most famous women in the world were wearing his pieces and along with André Courrèges and Pierre Cardin, he helped to create the 1960s Space Age movement.

Metal discs in gold are mixed with rows of silver to create this iconic, museum worthy Paco Rabanne dress. The discs are hand linked together one by one to create the shape and form that you see. The shoulder straps are topped by big oval metal plates that have hidden hooks under them and act as closures to the dress. Another large oval disc sits at the back just above the keyhole. The bodice is square cut and the shape is almost like a gladiator's tunic, that ends in a short mini length that shows miles of legs. The center of the dress, with its draped gold toned aluminum chains, is the focal point of the piece. The cut out leaves your entire midriff bare and the chains add unexpected movement. Most examples from this time period are a monochromatic silver and it is unusual and rare to find a mix like this one. Early examples of his work like this dress are held mainly in museums around the globe and pieces rarely come to market. It is exceptional. It's modern day provenance includes being worn by Naomi Campbell and Samantha Angelo. Excellent condition

Slips on to wear with hidden hooks under the oval plates at each shoulder and the back. The discs give it an almost bias cut in the way it sits on the body so it will fit a variety of sizes.

Super Soft
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Gray
So I’ve been trying these pillowcases out for a while. Let me tell you if you’re looking for a silky soft comfortable surface to lay your head on look no further. These silky, soft satin pillowcases fill that niche like nobody else. The material is very soft it looks very shiny and feels amazing next to my skin, which is all I look for. The quality is excellent. I’ve really enjoyed these pillowcases and the silver is wearing on me now I need to order some matching silver silky sheets, and I’ll be set. What an amazing value.

4 BUCKS PER PILLOWCASE. DEAL!
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Gray
SUPA MODERN Satin Pillowcase, Similar to Silk Pillow Cases Queen Size Set of 2. These silver pillowcases shine like metal, but they are worth 4 bucks a piece. My sister and I each tried one out. She loves how kindly the pillowcase treats her hair and her extensions; no snags, knottting, or rat nests. I love the way the material feels on my face; soothing and smooth. Definitely a good, affordable price for pillowcases, even shiny silver ones.

retty color, but the comfort isn’t there.
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Gray
I only received one pillowcase in my package, which was disappointing since it’s sold as a set of two. I’m also not a fan of this satin material — it runs hot and I end up sticking to it. The color is a pretty metallic silver, but the pillowcase itself feels cheap compared to brands like Kitsch. Overall, this one just isn’t for me.

Smooth Dreams & Frizz-Free Mornings
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Gray
These satin pillowcases are a total luxury upgrade without the silk price tag. The fabric feels buttery-smooth and cool against the skin—perfect for hot sleepers or anyone who loves that “fresh pillow” feeling all night long. I especially love how it helps tame bedhead and keeps my hair from getting tangled or frizzy while I sleep. The light grey color looks elegant and fits right into any bedroom style, and the envelope closure keeps the pillow snugly in place (no annoying slipping or bunching). They wash beautifully—no fading, pilling, or losing that silky finish. If you’ve been curious about silk pillowcases but don’t want the maintenance or cost, these satin ones are a perfect alternative. Cooling, soft, and hair-friendly—honestly, they make bedtime feel just a little more glamorous.
