If you want to create a serene, stylish sleeping space, don’t skip our master guide of the season’s must-try ideas. These warm-weather-friendly overhauls are perfect for updating your bedroom with a little hassle and lots of glamour.
1. Simple Bed-Making Practices
The trend toward making everything in life a little less complicated has finally hit our bedrooms in the form of simplified bedding. The must-have summer installation? One duvet, two shams, and one accent throw. You don’t have to over-layer: clean, simple styling still has to feel high-end. A crisp white percale duvet and textured throw can absolutely redo your room.
Functionality is the name of the game. Folks desire bedding that’s easy to clean, simple to change, and looks good despite all that. Fighting with duvets week in and week out? No thank you. Brands are finally catching up to this thinking, producing solutions that work in actual life without sacrificing style.
2. Buttery Soft, Breathable Fabrics
As interior designer and HomeGoods Featured Finder Jenny Reimold explains, light, fresh natural fibers are a summer standard. Percale cotton, with its crisp, cool finish, remains a favorite due to its streamlined, neat look and photo-friendly finish.
Linen is also very on-trend, particularly in coastal or nature-inspired settings. Worried about wrinkles? Going with stonewashed or enzyme-washed versions, which deteriorate nicely with wear and provide a lazy, lived-in decadence. As a result of this, man-made materials like polyester, microfiber, and certain rayons are being left behind for natural, eco-friendly fabrications that are cooler and more durable.
3. Nature-Inspired Color Palettes
Search for additional soft, sun-bleached hues this season. Butter yellow, mist blue, and muted peach create a warm, languid feel. Calming neutrals—driftwood beige, soft sage—are also in style, especially in outdoors- or beach-inspired rooms.
After decades of maximalist, loud design, people today are embracing quiet and simplicity. The color trends in bedding in the modern world are all about relaxing, refreshing, and turning the bedroom into a peaceful sanctuary.
4. Playful Patterns and Accents
Combining patterns is on-trend—ticking stripes and flowers, buffalo check and classic chinoiserie patterns are an example. The sweet combinations provide a cozy, retro atmosphere for modern bedrooms.
These include details like scalloped edges, pom-pom trims, and contrasting piping. These bring subtle, stylish depth without overpowering the room. The result is a bed setting that looks like it was custom-designed but still feels restful and relaxing.
5. Textures That Do the Work
This season, bedding with texture is rising to the top—both in appearance and function. Textures like crinkled cotton, washed linen, and seersucker provide a look of relaxed, « undone but refined » appearance.
The reward? These textiles are beautifully forgiving. No steaming or ironing necessary. A bit wrinkled bed today is intentional and chic, so mornings are a breeze.
6. Vacation-Inspired Comfort
Make your go-to destination come alive without ever departing your bedroom. Start with light-as-air linen—never heavy or cumbersome—then add sea-inspired colors such as soothing blue to evoke ocean breezes and beachy calm.
Just like with resort-type bed making, having extra pillows is also the added benefit of providing both back support and a warm, plush appearance. And you don’t need to spend designer money. With the right materials and the inclusion of cost-effective pieces, you can get luxe vacation style for less.
7. Performance Bedding That Works Hard
This year, functionality and comfort go hand in hand. Performance bedding—with characteristics of coolness, moisture-wicking, and wrinkle-resistance—is gaining popularity for good reason. It keeps bedrooms looking streamlined with little effort.
Tencel blends (most notably with modal or cotton) are silky feel and breathable without the cost of silk. They drape elegantly and are durable too. Linen-cotton blends and matelassé coverlets are rising stars—soft, strong, and easy care.
Whether you’re drawn to relaxed minimalism, subtle luxury, or playful layers, this season’s bedding trends prove that comfort and style can (and should) go hand in hand.
