Product Insights
Simons Maison's Broderie Anglaise Pillowcase (50/50 cotton-polyester) balances easy machine care—cold wash, low tumble dry, cool iron—with shrink and wrinkle resistance, at the cost of reduced breathability and standard poly-cotton softness. Priced at 18 CAD, it offers maintenance-friendly broderie anglaise styling from a brand tracing retail history to 1840.
- Washing & ironing
Machine wash cold in a mesh bag, tumble dry low, and iron inside out on low heat.
Why this is supported
The product's Q&A confirms that cold water and low heat are essential:
machine washing in cold water on a gentle cycle and tumble drying on low heat
What are the care instructions for washing and drying? Should it be machine washed, and can it be tumble dried?. It also recommends:
placing the pillowcase in a mesh laundry bag and using a gentle cycle to minimize wear
Does the embroidery tend to snag or fray over time with regular use and washing?. In addition, skipping fabric softener and adding white vinegar to the rinse cycle maintains the cotton's sheen and prevents yellowing, while ironing inside out on a cool setting preserves the raised pattern.
- Stain & snag repair
Work from the fabric reverse to remove stains or repair snags.
Why this is supported
For localized stains, a pH-neutral detergent applied with a soft toothbrush from the back of the fabric lifts the stain without abrading surface threads. If a stitch pulls but stays attached, threading it to the reverse side and securing it with a tiny overcast stitch prevents the snag from becoming a visible hole.
- Storage
Store in a breathable bag away from hooks and zippers to avoid snags.
Why this is supported
Storing the pillowcase in a breathable cotton bag or a smooth-sided drawer prevents the openwork edges from catching on zippers, hook-and-loop fasteners, or jewelry, extending the embroidery's life between uses.

Machine-washable, shrink- and wrinkle-resistant, seldom needs ironing.

Value compared to premium broderie anglaise pillowcases — polyester_for_real_life. When ironing is occasionally needed, the polyester content requires a cool synthetic setting, but the blend's wrinkle resistance makes pressing infrequent.
- Comfort
Less breathable than all-cotton; standard poly-cotton softness.
Why this is supported
The blend introduces a trade-off:
Recycled polyester can slightly reduce breathability compared to 100% cotton
Does the recycled polyester content affect the softness or breathability compared to 100% cotton?, but the softness is comparable to a standard poly-cotton blend, making it suitable for everyday use.
- Material
50/50 cotton-polyester blend resists wrinkles and shrinkage, with easy machine care, but requires a cool iron and slightly reduces breathability.

resists wrinkles, minimizes shrinkage, and holds up to machine washing better than pure cotton
Value compared to premium broderie anglaise pillowcases — polyester_for_real_life. This easy-care advantage is tempered by the blend's lower heat tolerance:

The cotton-polyester blend provides care benefits. The product Q&A notes it is
less prone to shrinkage than 100% cotton
Is the fabric pre-shrunk, or will the pillowcase shrink after the first wash?. The blend also resists wrinkles and withstands machine washing better than pure cotton, making it lower-maintenance than all-cotton versions.
