Summer Bedding Trends to Try This Season

Is there anything better than loving your bed? We spend such a large portion of our lives lying in its cosy comfort - it literally sets the tone for how you start and end every single day! Because of this, keeping your sleeping space feeling calm, stylish and neat helps you to feel your best. With warmer weather on the way, it's time to spruce up your summer bedding to suit the change in seasons. So, say goodbye to the thick flannels of winter and hello to breathable and lightweight styles that are on trend for 2022!

BEAT THE HEAT

If the onset of sticky and sleepless nights has you shaking in your boots, never fear! We have a wide selection of on-trend bedding that will keep you feeling breezy for a restful night's sleep this summer.

Your number one rule to remember when styling a summer bed is fabric, fabric, fabric! The choice of textile you decide to drape your mattress in will ultimately determine your quality of rest. We suggest sticking with breathable and lightweight options that allow you to get some z's without breaking a sweat.

Our favourite summer bedsheets are composed of cotton, linen, silk, bamboo or lyocell. Something all these fabrics have in common is their effortless ability to regulate body temperature while looking sophisticated and stylish!

Now that you know what to look for when purchasing your ideal bedding, it's time to envision a lovely summer look. Trends this year encompass a wide range of different aesthetics, making it accessible to choose pieces that align with any personal style. With simply the flourish of a fitted sheet, it's easy to incorporate the trend that best suits you!

Two of 2022's top trends include a love of all things organic and earthen - think gauzy textures, warm neutrals and muted or natural tones... and lively and vivid - think bright palettes and spirited prints.

When channelling the soft look, our Ramesses Bamboo Cooling Sheet Set comes in a variety of colours from light blushed pink to crisp white. Linen sheet sets are optimal for summer's sweaty nights - try our Linen House Linen Triblend Quilt Cover Set. It comes in four hushed hues and is blended with cotton and lyocell for durability and ultimate breathability.

For something with a bit more vigour, our Dri Glo Cotton Lyocell Sheet Set or reversible Polo Botanic Cotton Quilt Cover Set bring the playfulness of blue that is so popular right now, while our Linen House Argentina Cotton Quilt Cover Set goes all out with a colourful tropical print.

And don't forget your head! For summer, you can't look past our Ramesses Silk Pillowcase Twin Pack. The softness and breathability of silk is sublime, keeping you cool while also looking after your hair and skin.

Now you've got the base pieces sorted, it's time to complete the look with some flair.

ADD POPS OF PERSONALITY

Rejoice, there's no need to be balled up in a burrito of blankets any longer! Contrary to the pile of chunky knitted throws and thick doonas of winter, summer calls for the shedding of hefty layers. But this doesn't mean you'll miss out on the elegant aesthetic of having a few different elements to dress your bed. Elevate your styling by pairing crisp sheets with an array of decorative pillows and don't forget to complete the look by draping over a gorgeous throw.

KNOW HOW TO THROW

The key to keeping styling suitable for summer is to choose a thin and floaty throw. Not only will this uplift the design of your bed, but an added benefit is that the throw can double as a light blanket on nights when the mercury is too high for a doona, but you still want a sheet covering you while you snooze.

Our Kas Milla Throw is a perfect choice thanks to its airy fabric and charming, contemporary details. Or go for a more classic look with our Chyka Home Harper Woven Throw- its rustic weave is ideal for 2022's trend of natural grain surfaces. By adding a chic touch of texture and fringe with throws there is no need for your quilt cover to be weighed down by extra design features, meaning your summer bedspreads are streamlined for breezy comfort.

GET CREATIVE WITH CUSHIONS

Embrace your inner interior designer and let those creative juices flow when choosing cushions! These little puffs of perfection are just the ticket to introduce lively pattern, colour and texture to your bed setting. Cushions allow your summer style to be shaken up in a snap! Simply opt for your choice of bedsheet and let the selection of cushions switch up your palette.

When staying on trend this season, there is no question that cushions can do a lot of the heavy lifting in terms of showcasing your chosen aesthetic. Whether you are more partial to earthy, natural tones or looking to make a statement with 2022's hottest prints, we've got you covered. For a timeless and versatile style try our Jayson Brunsdon Homewares Vermont Cushion or Shaynna Blaze Hampton Cushion. For the bold, tap into our Kas Carlotta Cushion. The vibrant blue floral is in vogue this summer, with saturated hues trending across interior and fashion design.
