The luxury of linen

One of the most popular bed toppers being styled at our displays is the 100 per cent linen and flax bed linen. Emma says, “Its enduring quality and the way it softens beautifully over time, makes 100 per cent linen truly special. With a plenty of colours to choose from, this option provides a versatile and long-lasting foundation for any bedroom.”

“Having recently acquired an olive-green linen set to complement my vintage French upholstered bed, I can demonstrate how colour choices can harmonise with existing decor themes.”

The classic ‘all-white’ hotel look

For those who crave the timeless sophistication of a ‘hotel’ look, Emma recommends all-white bed linen.

“It’s tailored and classic appearance never goes out of style, creating an atmosphere of luxury and cleanliness in any bedroom.”

Details matter

Piping, flanges, scallop edges, fringing, and frills can elevate the overall aesthetic, turning a simple bed into a work of art.

Emma loves floral sets with scallop details and frills. This choice promises to inject a whimsical and romantic atmosphere into any bedroom.

Mixing plain and patterned

Try a creative approach by using a plain duvet cover and overlaying it with a patterned quilt or a luxurious fur throw. This combination adds depth and visual interest to the bed.

“I encourage experimenting with different colours for flat and fitted sheets compared to the duvet cover. Pairing them with matching pillowcases and shams can create a visually stunning and cohesive look.”

Coordinated pillows and cushions – the perfect finish

To complete the look, Emma recommends matching pillowcases with a contrasting pillow sham for that extra touch of sophistication.

“To add a touch of luxury, I suggests incorporating decadent cushions in materials like velvet, brocade, satin, or embroidery. These cushions not only enhance comfort but also contribute to the overall opulence of the bedroom.”

Modern minimalism

For a more modern, minimal, and tailored appearance, Emma recommends using layers of 100% wool blankets. This approach adds texture and warmth while maintaining a sleek and contemporary look.
