With so many different colours and styles available, it can take some careful consideration to narrow it down to the best pieces for your bedroom.

What is Sateen?

When you see bedding referred to as sateen bedding, it is indicating the way in which the Fibres are woven. Sateen bedding features one four threads woven over one thread. This construction provides a luxuriously smooth and lustrous finish that feels incredible against the skin. Typically, sateen sheets are crafted from a high-quality cotton, such as pima cotton.

Dressing a Bed in Sateen Bedding

Anytime you are outfitting a bed, you have to start with the basics. Begin by selecting a top-quality sheet set complete with a fitted sheet, flat sheet and pillowcases. Once you've selected the sheet set, keep the look going by adding a duvet cover set with coordinating shams.

A duvet cover acts like a big pillowcase for a duvet insert and makes a great option for beds used daily because they are easy to remove and wash when needed. Consider the overall colour scheme of the room and the final look you're trying to achieve when browsing the bedding available and plan both the sheets and the duvet accordingly.

Adding Layers of Style

Once you have the bed dressed in the basics, make the whole thing more inviting and eye-catching with the smaller details. Adding a row of Euro shams behind the pillowcases provides an added layer of plush comfort. Introduce new colours and patterns with small decorative pillows in front. If you tend to get chilly, drape a plush throw blanket across the foot of the bed.

Once you've narrowed down all the available options to a few of your Favourites, take a moment to look at the features of each design. Most sateen bedding is machine washable and dryable, making it an ideal choice for a bed used on a nightly basis. As you look at the key features, consider that many of the sateen bedding options available at Williams Sonoma offer personalization. You can make the items you selected your own by adding a monogram, initials, or even a full last name to the shams or pillowcases.
