2. Light Linens, Deep Sleep
Choosing the right fabric for your bed during summer is the key to unlocking peaceful, undisturbed sleep. It’s time to pack away your flannelette and dress your bed in light, airy summer-appropriate linens.
Our Vintage Softwash collection was specifically designed to be lightweight, breathable and incredibly soft, making them perfect for summer nights. The natural properties of cotton allow air to circulate freely, wicking away moisture and keeping your body temperature in check.
Bamboo cotton is renowned for its exceptional breathability and silky-smooth texture. It feels cool to the touch and the natural moisture-wicking properties of bamboo ensure you stay dry, while its breathability guarantees proper airflow, regulating your body temperature even on the hottest of nights.
Bamboo sheets are not only incredibly soft but also possess remarkable temperature-regulating abilities. Lustro bamboo sheets are super lightweight and airy, and drape smoothly, creating a cocoon of comfort around you. They remain cool to the touch, ensuring that you stay blissfully relaxed even when the temperature rises outside.
