Hello, looking for nice bedding that will look good without ironing (but not polyester).
Style of decor is minimalist (soft greys, pinks, white, linen texture) but in a period property.

Extra points for how to 'dress' a bed without it looking too fussy

Thanks in advance

H and M Home will have you coverer for this look. Relatively inexpensive too.

Sounds lovely btw.

Linen. It looks better crumpled and not ironed. It's a classic minimalist look too, white or in pale beautiful colours.

And it so's comfy too.

A bit expensive but apparently lasts for years. We got ours from John Lewis but loaf do some too.

Thank you, yes I was wondering about linen but didn't have a sense if it was comfy.

Will check out h&m and John Lewis. Don't really mind about price as a) got nothing else to spend on at the moment and b) it features in my zoom background if I don't angle the camera right so it needs to look good!

Ooh also, should I switch to a super king duvet? Does it look smarter? We have a grey linen bed frame with a slightly rolled headboard (think French but not ornate) no footboard so it needs to cover the end I think.
Thanks

Le Redoute also do good linen bedlinen in nice colours

I doubt super king duvets are longer than king duvets since super king beds aren’t any longer than king. I haven’t checked though! How far the duvet comes down is more a matter of how far up you pull it when making the bed.

Secret Linen Store has good linen bedding.

Look at Dunelm Mill for a large fleece throw

Put it on the end of the bed folded up

I always buy Habitat bedding - it’s so soft and comfortable if what you want is a good night’s sleep rather than a stylish zoom background!

They have a sale on at the moment.

Yes to linen. Soak and Sleep is excellent value.

Zara has lovely linen bedding, and so do Ikea (they do one particular set). I’ve just bought a linen valance from H&M to go with my Zara bedding. It looks very smart, even if I say so myself!

I have linen from John Lewis and soak and sleep. JL is much softer.

I can also recommend a blanket from the English blanket company to go at the end. Beautiful and soft and they do kinda size ones too. Really beautiful

TK max often has lovely bedding and if you look online their photos often show the bed dressed so you can get an idea on how you want to style it.

h&m home or habitat for affordable pure linen, if you have the budget something like piglet in bed. Habitat's 'washed cotton' is also nice if you don't have the budget for real linen.
