Vanessa Hudgens' Quiet Luxury Sleepwear Edit: Inside Ekouaer's 100% Mulberry Silk Collection

Vanessa Hudgens has spent the last year talking about what she calls her "My Comfort Era," and the short version is this: she is done dressing to be looked at and far more interested in how clothes actually feel. As PEOPLE reported when the campaign launched, the shift is about real comfort over performance, the kind you reach for without thinking. That instinct is exactly why she got involved in choosing pieces for Ekouaer's high-end Collection, the brand's most considered sleepwear line to date. She did not just lend her name. She picked the styles. And every one she chooses is cut from 100% mulberry silk.

Key Takeaways

  • Vanessa Hudgens selected three styles for Ekouaer's high-end Collection, and all three are 100% mulberry silk.

  • Mulberry silk is a natural protein fiber valued for breathability, temperature regulation, and a hand-feel that suits reactive skin.

  • Her three picks cover three moods: a cami wide-leg set for in-and-out wear, a cowl-neck slit nightgown for atmosphere, and a tie-front set that carries Lara Costafreda's exclusive Sea of Flowers print.

  • The high-end line also carries two softer knit blends (a modal-cotton mix and lyocell) for shoppers who want the look at a different price and care level.

  • The collection runs on a simple idea: the hours at home are the hours that are yours.

Why Vanessa Chose 100% Mulberry Silk

When someone curates a small sleepwear edit, the fabric choice says the most. Vanessa's three picks are all 100% mulberry silk, the same fiber that has anchored luxury sleepwear for generations. Mulberry silk is a natural protein fiber produced by silkworms fed on mulberry leaves, and it earns its place for practical reasons rather than just the shine. It breathes, it regulates temperature, and it sits lightly against skin that reacts easily to rougher textiles. For a piece you wear for eight hours straight, those are the differences you actually notice.

Ekouaer keeps the silk in this line aligned with OEKO-TEX Standard 100 testing, so the fabric is checked for harmful substances before it becomes a garment. That matters for sleepwear in particular, because the material stays against bare skin for long stretches through the night.

It is worth being clear about what the high-end Collection is not. The line is not one fabric across the board. Alongside the silk, it carries two knit blends that serve different needs:

Fabric Feel Best for
100% mulberry silk Luminous, cool, fluid drape The quiet-luxury piece; gifting; special nights
47% modal, 47% cotton, 6% elastane Soft, breathable, easy care Everyday sleep; machine-washable rotation
92% lyocell, 8% elastane Smooth, cool, crisp linework Warm nights; printed styles that keep detail

Vanessa's edit stays inside the silk column on purpose. If you want her exact choices, that is where to look.

Vanessa's Three Picks, One by One

  1. The Silk Camisole and Wide-Leg Pajama Set

The first piece is the 100% Mulberry Silk Camisole and Wide Leg Pajama Set, a layered V-neck cami with adjustable straps paired with a high-waist wide-leg pant. At $246, it is the most "leave the house" of the three. The wide-leg cut reads as loungewear you could answer the door in, then roll straight into bed. That is the whole point of a quiet-luxury edit: pieces that do not announce themselves as pajamas but still feel like nothing else when you finally lie down.

Think of it for the in-between hours. A slow morning coffee, a video call from the couch, a quick errand before dinner. The silk keeps it feeling considered rather than thrown on.

  1. The Silk Cowl-Neck Slit Nightgown

The second pick is the 100% Mulberry Silk Cowl Neck Slit Slip Nightgown, priced at $207. This is the mood piece. The cowl neckline drapes softly, the straps are adjustable, and a high side slit gives it movement. It works as sleepwear and as a slip dress under a blazer if you are the type who treats getting ready as part of the evening.

Where the wide-leg set is practical, this one is atmosphere. It is the piece to reach for on a night that deserves a little ceremony, a date at home, or simply the version of yourself that likes to feel dressed even off-camera.

  1. The Silk Tie-Front Short-Sleeve Set (The Double-IP Piece)

The third pick is the 100% Mulberry Silk Short Sleeve Pajama Set with Tie Front, $229, and it is the one collectors will want. It carries Sea of Flowers, Sea of Dreams, a print drawn exclusively for Ekouaer by Barcelona illustrator Lara Costafreda, the artist behind the brand's collaboration prints. Because the set is also one of the styles chosen by Vanessa Hudgens, it carries two names at once: a celebrity edit and an artist's original work. That is the double-IP appeal, and it is the only place in the line where the two meet on one garment.

If you want one piece that tells the whole story of this collaboration, this is it. You can read more about how the prints were built in the Lara Costafreda print guide.

What the Collection Adds Beyond the Fabric

Choosing silk is only half of what makes this line distinct. The other half is the artwork. Each silk piece in the high-end Collection carries an original print from Lara Costafreda rather than a generic floral repeat, so the garment reads as something illustrated, not just patterned. Vanessa's tie-front set gets the rarest of those prints, while the other two silk picks keep the focus on cut and drape.

The line also sits under a simple brand idea: THE HOURS THAT ARE YOURS. Not borrowed from a schedule, not performed for anyone. That framing is what ties Vanessa's "My Comfort Era" to the clothes themselves. Silk is the material; The permission to slow down is the point.

FAQ

Q: Are all three Vanessa-selected styles silk?

A: Yes. The cami wide-leg set, the cowl-neck slit nightgown, and the tie-front short-sleeve set are all 100% mulberry silk in the high-end Collection.

Q: How is silk different from the other fabrics in the line?

A: The line also offers a modal-cotton blend and a lyocell blend. Those are softer, easier-care knits at a lower price; Silk is the luminous, temperature-regulating option Vanessa chose for her edit.

Q: Which of the three is the most collectible?

A: The tie-front short-sleeve set. It is the only style that pairs Vanessa's selection with Lara Costafreda's exclusive Sea of Flowers print, so it carries both the celebrity and the artist angle.

Q: Is silk safe for sensitive skin?

A: Mulberry silk is a natural protein fiber that tends to be gentle on reactive skin, and Ekouaer tests the fabric to OEKO-TEX Standard 100 for harmful substances. Cold hand wash with a silk-specific detergent keeps the sheen and print intact.
