Every house needs bedsheets, in both single and double sizes. But not every house has good quality bedsheets that last for years, and which look great when the bed is made. If you want your bedding to be of top quality and high on class and comfort, then do read on to know the kinds of bedsheets you should buy in the year 2022.

With the start of the new year, it is time to usher in new beginnings, and why not start with the bed? Here are our suggestions for the bedsheets your home needs this year:

#1 Reversible bedsheet.                                                                                                                            

This is a design innovation anyone can get on board with. In essence, it offers two bedsheets for the price of one. You can use both sides of the bedsheet as per your choice and preference. Be sure to browse the two sides of the sheet carefully before you purchase it – the brand’s website will have the requisite images for you to see and make your decision. You can buy this bedsheet online even to gift your loved ones. Do choose a cotton variant as it is the most skin-friendly one.

#2 Hypoallergenic bedsheets.

These bedsheets are less likely to cause allergic skin and eye reactions, among others. They comprise materials that resist dust, spores from mould or fungus, dust mites, etc. They are often blended with cotton to offer a hypoallergenic finish, and feature a tighter and stiffer weave than 100% cotton sheets. They are unsparing of indoor allergens such as dust or soot particles from cooking smoke. Premium bed linen brands in India retail microfiber hypoallergenic bedsheets in various colours and patterns. We recommend these bedsheets for pregnant women, children, senior citizens and those suffering from respiratory disorders. You can buy them in single or double bedsheet variants.

#3 Plain or printed bedsheets.

This year, a major trend in home interior design is colour blocking. From appliances to furniture, and from upholstery to bed linen, colour blocking is a superb new trend for contemporary Indian homes. In terms of buying online bedsheets, look for solids in two or more colours. If not, go with a single colour such as indigo, maroon, black or green color bedsheet. However, don’t write off printed bedsheets just yet – they have a big market, too. Floral and geometric prints are in at the moment, so consider buying those. A mix of plain and printed bedsheets is ideal for variation.

#3 Queen and King Size bedsheets.

There is the question of size when you buy bedsheets. You know of double and single bedsheets. But in the double variant, there are two sizes to choose from: Queen and King size. Some brands even retail Large or Deluxe sizes, which are larger than King bedsheets. Do measure the mattress accurately before buying bedsheets online, especially if you are buying fitted sheets. Fitted sheets must match the mattress size exactly, while flat sheets can be larger. However, do not buy a Queen size for a larger mattress because it will just not fit.

#4 Fitted bedsheets.

Fitted bedsheets are in vogue at the moment. They are easy to use and they reduce the effort required to make the bed. The only thing you have to ensure is that the sheet size is the same as your mattress. A bigger fitted sheet will just drape itself loosely around the mattress, while a smaller one will not snap on all sides. Measure your mattress before you buy the bedsheet online.
