Well, these are very light gray, like a dirty white and not very appealing.  These pillowcases look good out of the package, but nope, once they are washed they need ironing and that's not gonna happen.  Too, too wrinkly and not very inviting. They are also hot to sleep with, which can be miserable - for me.  I appreciate the opportunity to try these pillowcases, but no, I will not be buying more.  A simple design, not male or female, like stripes, would be more appealing and make the wrinkles less obvious.
