Bedding with a touch of luxury

Our bedrooms are often the only room in the house we have to ourselves. No wonder then, that we look for ways to make the bedroom a comfortable, relaxing place to be. Great bedding can help us to achieve the look we want.

The right luxury bedding

Of course, beautiful bedding is all in the eye of the beholder; what you think is gorgeous may not have any effect on your work colleagues or family. That's why there's a great range of different types of luxury bedding for you to choose from:

• Silk bedding - silk is still the ultimate in luxury fabric, famed for the way it shimmers and drapes, along with the fact that it can keep you warm without getting too hot. Buying silk bedding, whether it's sheets and pillowcases or a full duvet set, will give you bedroom a real boudoir feel.

• Satin - although not as high-end as silk, you can still create a great effect with satin bedding. Choose your colours carefully, and accessories with other fabrics if you don't want to go over the top.

• Decorative bedding - bedding design has come on in leaps and bounds over recent years, and you can now get very decorative bedding at reasonable prices. Sequins, beading, lace, buttons and other ornaments are added to designs, making your bedding stand out from the rest. Be careful when washing this type of bedding though - not reading the care instructions could result in some of the decorative work coming off the bedding.

• Multi-fabric bedding - the use of several different fabrics on your bedding can give it a really luxurious look. From suede patches to satin ribbons, combining different types of textiles can give a plain design a really fabulous look.

• Plain, quality cotton - for some, the highest quality white cotton is the very best in luxury bedding. If you can afford top-of-the range cotton, you can certainly give you bed that boutique look, and if you choose great accessories, such as cushions, bolsters and quilts, you can use this bedding to create a wonderfully relaxing environment.

Whatever defines luxury bedding for you, make sure you buy the best quality you can afford, because this will help to ensure that it lasts you for years, giving you the lavish bedroom you dream of.
