FAQs
The short answer is YES! Cotton Bed Sheets are extremely hypoallergenic.
Cotton is one of the most common natural fabrics for hypoallergenic sheets as it's it's soft, breathable, wicks moisture from your body. Likewise cotton has natural anti-microbial properties meaning less dust mites will stick around in your bed.
Our number one recommendation if looking for hypoallergenic cotton bedding is avoid any cottton and synthetic blends. Stick to 100% Egyptian cotton bed linen or long fibre cotton bedding.
The choice between a fitted or flat sheet as a bottom sheet very much depends on personal preference and practical considerations for your cotton bed linen collection.
In our opinion a well designed Fitted sheets offer convenience and practically. Most important to ensure you´er buying a good quality fitted sheet is the elastic runs around all four sides and that it has some extra depth so it stays in place throughout the night. There's nothing worse that having the bottom sheet move and waking up sleeping directly on a synthetic mattress!!
A fitted sheet also provides a neat and tidy appearance minimising wrinkles and bunching which is convenient.
On the other hand using a flat sheet as a bottom sheet can be a practical solution, after all, a flat sheet has a double purpose as a bottom sheet and top sheet.
They also allow for more customization in bed-making styles and are not just limited to one specific bed size like a fitted sheet.
Yes you certainly can. If you would like to check the quality of our material we are more than happy to send you a pack of swatches containing the material from each of our cotton bed sheet collections. Please checkout our sample request form here.
This is a common question and one that is very personal. Several factors influence whether a flat sheet is necessary with your quilt cover. Firstly, how much you move at night? It doesn´t matter how soft and comfortable your cotton bed sheets might be, there are some people who move a whole lot during their sleep and get wrapped in a too many layers of sheets. If this is you, and the flat sheet always ends kicked off the bottom of the bed we would suggest simply using a quilt cover.
If however you don´t move much you can save yourself some linen loads by using a flat sheet therefore not needing to wash your quilt cover with such regularity.
Other factors to consider are if your four legged friend sleeps on the bed with you. For hygiene reasons we would recommend a flat sheet and washing both the quilt cover and flat sheet on once to twice a week.
Likewise, are you a hot sleeper and perspire at night? If you are then less layers are better. Not only could the extra flat sheet annoy you however it's likely both quilt cover and flat sheet would end up damp therefore having no real benefit to using both.
Finally the aesthetic element- using both the flat sheet with a duvet cover gives a very elegant and styled look. If you're concerned about showing your Egyptian cotton bed linen in all it's glory then we recommend using both.
