Is there anything more romantic for Valentine's Day than a silk pyjama set? <a href="https://oliviavonhalle.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Olivia von Halle</a>, the London-based queen of luxury loungewear, shares her style secrets, signature looks and why Ibiza is the best place for souvenir shopping.&nbsp;

A towering heel - I would always rather be overdressed than underdressed! I love a statement platform and Gucci make some of the best. They make you look fabulous and are still comfortable enough for everyday wear.

My personal style signifier is…

My <a href="https://www.jessicamccormack.com/new-york-party-jacket">Jessica McCormack New York ring</a> - it holds a special sentimental value in my heart.

The most romantic gift I ever bought or received is…

<h4>True style is all about&hellip;</h4>
<h6>&nbsp;Feeling the best version of yourself.</h6>

My signature scent is… 

My friend Abel - she&rsquo;s an amazing DJ and I always have the wildest times with her. She plays at some of the best parties in Ibiza and she&rsquo;ll get me dancing until sunrise.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The person I call for a good time is…

A pair of silk pyjamas, of course. The <a href="https://oliviavonhalle.com/products/lila-nika-silk-pyjamas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lila</a> is the first style I ever designed and it&rsquo;s still one of my favourites! There&rsquo;s nothing more luxurious than sleeping in the softest 19&nbsp; momme silk.

The luxury I couldn’t do without is…

<h4>The dish I cook the most is&hellip;&nbsp;</h4>
<h6>&nbsp;I have to admit I don&rsquo;t really cook - my husband Hugo is the real chef! We love to have&nbsp; friends over for kitchen supper and he cooks the best roasts, with lots of red wine!&nbsp;</h6>

Shanghai! It&rsquo;s where I started the brand and I have the best memories there. One of the&nbsp; most exciting things about the city was to see this new-found confidence and playfulness with fashion, and people creating their own unique style. It used to give me so much inspiration! London is always cited as being the most creative fashion city but these Shanghai fashionistas put us in the shade!

The one place I’d love to return to is…

My husband Hugo and our three children. Hugo and I met at the age of 23 and got married the following year. That youthful exuberance is still part of our lives and of our home, which is a riot of colour! My favourite room is our &ldquo;shrimp-pink&rdquo; drawing room -&nbsp; we have the best time in this room, perfect for hosting the most brilliant parties!&nbsp;

What makes a home… 

When I&rsquo;m in Ibiza I love buying handwoven baskets from the organic food shops in the campo and I always come home with few pots of Sal de Ibiza &ndash; the pretty little ceramic pots are great gifts for friends.

The best souvenir I ever bought was…

The Suffering Bathwater. It&rsquo;s a very old-school English-in-the-tropics cocktail that&rsquo;s three-parts gin to one-part Cointreau with a dash of lime. A guaranteed killer!&nbsp;

My signature drink is…

<h4>My go-to therapist (mind or body) is&hellip;</h4>
<h6>My personal trainer Simba! I love working out with him at Fit for Life&nbsp;</h6>

Gucci sunglasses and Olivia von Halle silk slip dresses! The <a href="https://oliviavonhalle.com/products/zoya-ivory-silk-fringed-slip-dress?variant=40342941597763&amp;currency=GBP&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gclid=CjwKCAiAt5euBhB9EiwAdkXWO8kH3mpucBpfRC2iWhoCNohWax6YEn9xlvAQse7rf-lra9DY5l782RoCnDoQAvD_BwE" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fringed Zoya</a> is such a fun piece and one of my favourites - pair it with a matching Amina robe for the best holiday look.&nbsp;&nbsp;

My holiday essentials are…

La Mer Lip Balm and anything from Sarah Chapman. I&rsquo;ve been using her Skinesis Overnight Facial for a long time and it has completely transformed my skin!&nbsp;&nbsp;

My dressing table is never without… 

Diana Vreeland back in the day. She was elegant, daring, and didn&rsquo;t take herself too seriously. I love that! I love women with confidence who pioneer their own style.&nbsp;

My dream customer is…

Dinner at Chiltern Firehouse with my husband Hugo, always. I really love the atmosphere there, the soft lights, cosy fireplace and the decadent furniture. Perfect for a date!&nbsp;&nbsp;

My dream Valentine’s date would be… 

Anything from the Olivia von Halle <a href="https://oliviavonhalle.com/collections/pure-cashmere" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PureCash</a> range. It&rsquo;s the most luxurious thing you&rsquo;ll ever feel on your skin.

If I could only wear one thing forever it would be…

<h4>Distil the essence of romance into a sentence&hellip;.&nbsp;</h4>
<h6>Turning the ordinary into extraordinary - never be dull! </h6>
