With the sun streaming through the windows of your bedroom, now feels like the perfect time to invest in good bedlinen (which also contributes to healthy sleep and wellbeing).
GLOSS favourite Irish brand FOXFORD (which celebrates an amazing 130 years in business this year) makes its bedlinen from 100 per cent combed, long-fibre cotton percale that feels luxuriously smooth and softens with each wash. While some interior upgrades might take a little time to organise, a deliciously comfortable and good-looking bed is a pleasure that is easily achieved with the right linen, plump pillows and a pretty throw.
FOXFORD’s crisp bedlinen prints are developed by designer Helen McAlinden and the team at FOXFORD, with a “wardrobe for your bed” concept to the fore. That means that no print is designed in isolation, but as part of a suite of patterns that co-ordinate beautifully with previous and future collections, so you can re-style and update your bed, just as you would your wardrobe. The result, like your wardrobe, is layered and lovely and completely individual.
Right now the focus is on the freshest fern prints, the Victoria Fern and the Mini Fern, in three colourways – blue, yellow and green. The Antique Roman Floral collection features a spriggy print in muted grey-green and old rose. The warm tones of the terracotta collection are earthy and grounding, with an Aztec pattern adding a graphic note. Always available, FOXFORD’s smart Hotel collection – in crisp white cotton percale or sateen with a choice of with nacre (mink), navy, pink and grey trim – is a FOXFORD mainstay, and can also be paired and layered with other prints. Housewife, Oxford and square pillowcases are available across ranges.
The bestselling bedlinen collection was originally created to accompany FOXFORD’s iconic throws and blankets. The range of throws is still vast and varied, from chic classic herringbone to windowpane check, to the ice-cream stripes of the summery Ballintubber design. To celebrate its 130th birthday, FOXFORD’s traditional pink and blue stripe blankets were reimagined and the Nostalgia collection was born, featuring classic herringbone weave throws in noble lambswool and cashmere blends.
As well as bedlinen and throws, FOXFORD’s online store features quality towels and bathmats, furniture, lighting, outdoor rugs, home fragrance and accessories. We are smitten by Vislana summerweight scarves in pretty coral, pink, natural and blue. Don’t forget the quintessential picnic rug – you can choose from a wide range. There are even fabulous, well-stocked picnic baskets …
