The Great Bedding Debate
Cotton and linen are both natural fibres, but they feel and perform quite differently in your bedroom. Here's our honest take on when to choose each.
Cotton: Smooth and Consistent
Our long-staple cotton sateen has a silky-smooth finish that feels cool against the skin. It's ideal if you prefer a polished, hotel-quality feel. Cotton sheets hold their colour beautifully and resist pilling.
French Linen: Textured and Relaxed
Our Ivy French Linen has a beautiful drape and gets softer with every wash. Linen is naturally temperature-regulating — cool in summer, warm in winter. The relaxed, lived-in look is part of the charm.
Can't decide? Many of our customers mix both — linen in summer, cotton in winter, or linen pillowcases on cotton sheets for the best of both worlds.
The Verdict
Choose cotton for a smooth, consistent feel. Choose linen for texture and natural temperature regulation. Either way, you're sleeping in something beautiful.
