Our Community: Meet Silk Laundry

Community is the collective of those we surround ourselves with and at The Calile our community is at the core of what we do.

This is the reason why we created our Friends of Calile program – to introduce guests to our generous and creative community, and to unlock access to special offers, discounts and experiences through the Friends of Calile app when staying with us.

Introducing our current feature community member, Silk Laundry. Friends of Calile staying during July and August will have the opportunity to secure key pieces with personal in-room styling sessions and complimentary gifts with purchases, exclusively at Silk Laundry’s James St boutique.

Founded by Katie Kolodinski, the Australian-born womenswear label has offered honest and thoughtfully curated silk essentials for more than a decade. Born from personal experience and the frustration of being unable to find natural silk basics, Kolodinski’s passion for beautiful things and timeless design has remained at the forefront of the business since its inception. “At Silk Laundry, we’ve never been interested in chasing trends. Instead, we pour our energy into designing pieces that carry real emotional significance – garments you can reach for again and again.” – Creative Director Katie Kolodinski.

Looking for advice of what to pick when shopping at Silk Laundry? Let their expert in-house stylists lead a relaxed in-room personal styling session or solo try-on during your stay at The Calile. You will have the opportunity to shop personally curated looks and secure key pieces, plus you will receive a complimentary gift bag.

Prefer an in-store experience? Enjoy a private styling experience in Silk Laundry’s James St boutique.
