Our bedroom is our sanctuary, away from the chaos it is a calming space to switch off. At the center of this is the bed and importantly our sheets. The material you select for your bed sheets is vitally important and will have a huge impact on the quality of your slumber. Of course, they can also play a big role in styling your bed to reflect your design aesthetic.

Not all bedding sets are created equally, as any frequent hotel visitor will know. The feeling of quality sheets is unmatched. You pay attention to this detail in hotels, so why don't you prioritize it in your own home? For an instantly elevated bed setup and a cozy contemporary bedroom, opt for bedding that is plush, soft, and comforting. The best bedding sets will not only make your bed look better, but they will help you to sleep better, too.

So what’s new in the world of bedding lately? Well, according to LUXOME’s Tandy Avery, we’re seeing more and more ‘demand for pops of color and statement-piece bedding.’ But that doesn’t mean that these looks are full on maximalist per se. ‘For example, those with white or neutrally-colored sheets will add a Terracotta or Ocean throw blanket or pillowcase to create a different look.’ Adding just a splash of pizzazz, ‘This trend is all about injecting energy and personality into bedroom spaces, moving away from traditional subtlety to more expressive designs.’

Luckily, for you, all of the best bedding brands are already on the pulse of these bedding trends and then some, blending each with the most timelessly touchable materials to keep you comfy for the long haul. Whether you’re on the hunt for the best striped bedding, gray bedding, or even Egyptian cotton sheets, we’ve compiled some of our favorite brands that offer premium quality, gorgeous designs, and above all: a good night's sleep.

When it comes to linen bedding, our go-to is Piglet in Bed. You might have seen this brand splashed over your social media feeds, and we can confirm, it lives up to all the hype. Its linen sheets come in every color and pattern under the sun, with options for every aesthetic, or color theme, there is something for everyone.

Linen is perhaps the unsung hero of the bedding world. Cotton once dominated the market but now we are seeing much-needed pushback from materials such as linen and silk. It has a range of benefits that make it the ideal choice for bed sheets. 'Though its praises are often sung as the best bed linen for summer, linen is ideal for use all year round,' explains Jessica Hanley, founder of Piglet in Bed. Its thermoregulation properties keep you cozy during fall and winter but are incredibly breathable during summer. Linen is a more expensive material, but see it as an investment. Linen bedding sets will last you a long time and can be used all year round. It actually gets softer with age.

'Our loyal community can’t get enough of the benefits, properties, and aesthetic that comes with linen,' says Jessica, and we can understand why. If you want to create a cozy bed as part of a calming bedroom, linen is the way to go. The Gingham bedding collection is my personal favorite.

What is the best bedding brand for classic cotton?

Cotton is the material most of us know for bedding, and you cannot fault the comfort it offers. However, you may have noticed some sheets feel like paper in comparison to others. This is where you need to prioritize quality and pay attention to thread count. The right cotton bedding can be the perfect choice when creating a restful bedroom.

The Wool Room offers an amazing selection of thread counts that offer a sumptuous softness that is far from the crunch cotton you might have previously encountered. Cotton is a natural fiber known for its softness and breathability. It can regulate temperature by transporting moisture away from your body, so you can sleep cool in summer, and warm in colder winter months. You can't go wrong with a quality classic cotton sheet and natural fibers are far superior to anything synthetic, check out The Wool Room for quality bedding that feels like a luxury hotel. You'll never want to leave your bed again.

What is the best bedding brand for silk sheets?

Silk is one of those materials that exudes luxury from the way it drapes to the way it shines, everything is luxurious. Not only does silk bedding look completely gorgeous, it gives you tons of health and wellness benefits and enhances sleep, too.

According to LILYSILK’s Wendy Zhang, ‘Silk is naturally hypoallergenic, which means it's resistant to dust mites, fungus, mold, and other allergens.’ ‘This can be particularly beneficial for those who suffer from allergies or have sensitive skin,’ she adds. The material is also ‘breathable and can help regulate temperature,’ notes Wendy, keeping you cool in the summer and warm in winter. No more tossing and turning — silk is the secret to a more comfortable sleep.

If, like me, you're concerned by wrinkles and hair damage, a silk pillowcase is a must. The soft material promises to be kind to skin and hair, within a week you will notice a difference in the plumpness of your skin and the condition of your hair. According to Wendy, ‘Sleeping on a silk pillowcase can make your skin and hair look better because it creates less friction than rougher fabrics.’ ‘This smoothness helps prevent skin irritation and reduces the appearance of sleep lines and wrinkles,’ she continues, ‘leading to smoother, healthier skin.’

If you are looking for silk bedding, take a look at the Sheridan Mulberry silk collection that offers unparalleled comfort and glamour. Their bedding makes for a top-tier night's sleep and is the perfect addition to your luxurious bedroom.
