Best duvet covers 2022: Stylish and comfortable bedding sets

Nothing compares to fresh sheets. Fact.

There are few things that make you feel like you have your life together more than a clean set of bed linen that you slip into after a long, stressful day and all your worries and cares melt away. In lustrous fabrics, they can transform any space into a luxurious haven - you just need the right ones.

When it comes to your duvet cover in particular, the market is awash with whimsical prints or relaxing designs, but where to start? This bedding staple can go a long way in setting the ambiance for your boudoir and enhancing your interiors.

You can use your bedsheets to inject bright accents into your space, mixing, matching or juxtapositing with deeper wall paints, or you can declutter the room by going refined and minimalistic. Neutral tones like white or cream offer a blank canvas where you can bring texture through curtains, rugs, ornaments or throws.

For the minimalists who prefer a serene sleep sanctuary, look to crisp, clean designs and materials like cotton or sateen, while if you’re looking for your sheets to bring personality into your space, opt for vibrant floral prints, bold checks or get creative with colour. This will make your bed feel warm and inviting, especially when layered with decorative pillows.

The latest interior trends range from the maximalist haven of cottagecore, mid-century and a clash of patterns, to boho stylings with natural materials and pared-back palettes. No matter what suits your siesta space, we have the duvet covers to suit that you’ll look forward to coming home to.
