What size bedding do I need?

Start by checking your mattress and duvet size rather than assuming they are the same. We stock bedding across standard New Zealand bed sizes, but sizing can vary between brands, particularly international ones. Check the measurements shown on each product before ordering, and go off the actual sizes in cm rather than the terms Queen, King etc.

How do I choose a duvet cover for my bedroom?

Think about what you want the bed to do in the room. A bold patterned duvet can become the focal point, while a simpler duvet gives you more freedom to add colour through cushions, pillowcases and throws. You don’t need everything to match. Some of the most interesting bedrooms combine different colours and patterns that have one or two elements in common.

Can I mix and match bedding instead of buying a matching set?

Absolutely. Mixing pillowcases, sheets and duvet covers is an easy way to create a bedroom that feels more personal. Try connecting different patterns through a common colour, or pair a bold duvet cover with simpler sheets and introduce another pattern through your pillowcases. There are no rules saying every piece of bedding needs to come from the same collection.

What should I look for when buying quality bedding?

Fabric quality and construction matter more than simply choosing the highest thread count. Look at what the bedding is made from, how the fabric feels and breathes, and whether it’s suitable for how you like to sleep. We select bedding that combines good-quality materials with great design, including cotton and organic cotton options from brands we trust.

What does GOTS-certified organic cotton mean?

GOTS stands for the Global Organic Textile Standard. GOTS-certified textiles must meet requirements covering organic fibres as well as environmental and social criteria throughout textile processing. Some of the bedding we stock is made from GOTS-certified organic cotton. Check the individual product description to see the materials and certifications for a particular design.

What bedding is best for summer?

Natural, breathable fabrics such as cotton and linen are a good choice for warmer weather. Rather than changing the whole look of your bedroom each season, you can also adjust the layers: lighter bedding in summer, and extra blankets or throws when the temperature drops. All of our bedding is made from natural fibres.

Do you sell designer bedding brands?

Yes. We source distinctive bedding from design-led brands, chosen for their quality, colour and pattern. Bedding brands we stock include Hommey, Kip & Co, Sage x Clare, Orla Kiely, Marimekko, Lazy Bones and Bluebellgray.
