All about:

In this department, a selection of fitted sheets 90x190, 140x190 and 160x200 cm.

Indissociable from the sheet, pillowcase and comforter cover, the fitted sheet is placed on the mattress to protect the bedding. Made from cotton or polyester, they are available in a wide range of colors and fancy patterns. Whether you opt for a floral or striped fitted sheet for a rustic bedroom, a designer fitted sheet for a more contemporary look, or a Hello Kitty or Disney Cars fitted sheet for a child's bedroom, the choice is yours.

You've finally chosen and installed your bedding, and now all you need is the bed linen to complete the decor? Here are a few tips for choosing a fitted sheet, and how to match it to your decor.

Choice of material

Once you've decided on the ideal size of fitted sheet for your mattress, one of the other main criteria when choosing bed linen is the material. Fitted sheets can be made from a wide range of materials, but not all of them are equal, nor do they have the same advantages.

Ask yourself the question of comfort: do you prefer sheets that are soft and silky to the touch, or is the main criterion that the fabric is hypoallergenic?

If your answer to the first question is "yes", look for a fitted sheet in a lightweight material like cotton: cotton silk, cotton percale, cotton voile or cotton gauze. Although the weaving techniques are not all the same, and each brings its own particular know-how and advantages, investing in a cotton bed linen set will ensure you a soft, comfortable night's sleep.

If you're more interested in the hypoallergenic properties of the fabric, choose a fitted sheet in washed linen. Linen is highly breathable, retaining moisture and allowing you to sleep in a relaxed atmosphere, without fear of sweating in summer or catching a cold in winter. Its properties make it the perfect fabric for sensitive people.

You can also choose flannel sheets. This thicker fabric is recommended mainly in winter, to keep you warm.

Choosing colors and patterns

As far as the aesthetic aspect of the fitted sheet is concerned, you can give free rein to your desires, as long as you like the colors and patterns.

If you prefer to keep to neutral tones to maintain an elegant feel in your bedroom, plain fabrics or simple patterns such as fine stripes or pretty little flowers are very wise choices. Light colors such as white, pastel blue or pale pink look great in a bedroom, giving it a boudoir feel.

If you're a little more playful, or if you like bold colors and original patterns, you'll be able to find just what you're looking for to refine your bedroom decor: seashell-based patterns, country-style patterns with large leaves and fruit, or even geometric patterns for a more art deco look... Everything comes in dozens of colors, so you can decorate your bedroom to your heart's content!
