Well maybe in the 60's and 70's but with modern materials you don't need to look like a complete nut job.

EMF Shielding & Conductive Fabrics.
Quoting a little; Fabrics that feels great against the skin, is hand washable, conductive, and offers exceptionally high RF shielding performance. It is perfect for making microwave shielding pajamas, shirts, hoods, curtains or sheets. Easy to make a ground connection because the surface has high conductivity (<1 Ohm per sq).

Now that's style. They even stock a LIGHT DUTY FARADAY CANOPY for the bed, looks like a bug screen but it a King Size, fabric (100% polyester net-knit with 5% silver-plated copper fiber content) which stops over 80% (16dB) of microwave radiation energy penetration (over at least 200-3000 MHz).
