“Changing the world of luxury”
Over a sunset cocktail on a beach in Thailand, a hotelier friend told me how often luxury hotel bed linen is condemned. There was an instant eureka moment, followed by “oh shit I have no excuse not to follow my dream”. My next move was to work out much linen is retired annually by leading hotels – enough to go round the world more than twice as it happens. That was five years ago and there was no turning back in my quest to create premium products from this ‘pinnacle of luxury’ fabric. The SleepingBags range now includes sleepwear, bags and soft furnishings and every product tells a story
