We all know how good a high thread-count bed sheet can be. I have one friend who asks thread-counts when considering hotels for vacations. For the uninitiated, the basics are:

High thread-count = good. The cloth will feel supple and luxurious. It crinkles like a fine gold chain. Why? There are smaller, finer threads, and more of them per square inch.

Low thread count = cheap. The cloth will feel less cozy and more like tablecloth.

Basically, it's like the difference between making your sheets out of fettuccine or angel hair pasta.

So here's a brilliant idea: make high thread count sleepwear! Sound cool? Look no further.

Body Linens Products makes the beautiful nightie (above right) in 300, 500, and 800 thread counts! Classy and obscenely comfortable. They have stuff for men, too. GO there.
