Price History
Description
With their simple design, these pillowcases can be matched to all kinds of bedding. They are made from 230-thread-count Egyptian cotton with a premium sateen finish. Our non-iron fabric saves time on laundering, while StayNew™ technology keeps them looking as good as new, wash after wash.
Our Stylist Says
I love these pillowcases for their sleek, understated look and the luxurious feel of Egyptian cotton. Their 230 thread count strikes a perfect balance between softness and durability, making them an excellent choice for both everyday use and special occasions. The slate blue shade adds a modern, calming touch that works well in contemporary, minimalist, or Scandinavian interiors-it's a versatile colour that pairs easily with other muted tones or vibrant accents. Practical styling tips include layering them with textured throws or adding patterned cushions to create visual interest. They also transition seamlessly throughout the seasons, making them a timeless addition to any bedroom.

About Marks & Spencer
History and Expansion
Marks and Spencer, often lovingly called "Marks and Sparks" or "M&S", has been a staple in the UK market since its founding in 1884. Over the years, the brand has seen tremendous growth, with 1,064 stores across the UK and an additional 406 locations worldwide as of 2023.
Historically, M&S was celebrated for its commitment to selling British-made goods, pioneering the "St Michael" brand in 1928 which honoured its co-founder Michael Marks.
As they grew, M&S maintained its reputation for quality, fair value, and innovative customer policies, even allowing returns with full cash refunds regardless of purchase date.
Clothing & Home Business Endeavours
In recent years, M&S has focused on modernising its Clothing & Home business, striving to offer contemporary, stylish products that resonate with their 22 million customers.
A noteworthy move was their acquisition of Jaeger in 2021, a brand that shares a founding year with M&S. Under M&S's umbrella, Jaeger remains an independent brand, renowned for its timeless elegance, and is now available on M&S's website and in select M&S stores across the UK and Ireland.
Sustainability and Innovations
Throughout its existence, Marks and Spencer has demonstrated commitment to improving customer experience and sustainability.
In the 1950s, they introduced hygiene training for canteen staff, and by the 1960s had implemented thermostatically controlled refrigerators for enhanced energy efficiency.
M&S has been at the forefront of many retail innovations, from introducing "sell by dates" in the early '70s to enhance food quality, to banning smoking in all their stores as early as 1959 due to fire hazards.
The brand's long standing dedication to quality, customer relations, and sustainability remains evident in their practices today.
