Since buying her first sheet set from Bed Threads, Home Beautiful’s Shopping Editor, Paris Blanchfield, refuses to sleep on anything else:
“Being from New Zealand, I’ve found it incredibly tricky to adjust to the Australian heat, particuarly at night. I bought a sheet set from Bed Threads as a last-ditch effort to save me from sleeplessness and, lo and behold, it really did make a huge difference in my quality of sleep. Plus, their linen is gorgeous; cool but soft, textured but not scratchy. I’ve been adding to my Bed Threads collection ever since, and every dollar spent has been well worth it.”

Choosing the best sheet fabric for your bed
When looking at sheets, you’ll want to decide on which material works for you. There’s no material for bed sheets that is objectively ‘better’ than the other – this is because it’s all up to your personal preference. Below are some common materials you can find bed sheets in.
Linen
Synonymous with ‘lightweight’ and ‘breathable’ is the popular textile for bedding – linen. Linen that is woven in Europe – Belgian or French Flax, for example – are great indicators of superb linen quality. Moreover, it’s a great option for summer or hot sleepers due to its natural moisture-wicking properties.
Cotton
Cotton is another very popular textile for bed sheets. It’s incredibly soft while still having the same moisture-wicking properties seen in linen sheets. The quality of cotton sheets can be determined by how long the staples are within the fabric/fibre. The longer the cotton staple, the better quality the sheets are. Egyptian cotton is known to be the premium offering of cotton sheets as its staples are extra long in comparison.
Bamboo
Also known as bamboo rayon, is also a great fabric to opt for when choosing your next sheet set. Bamboo sheets are breathable with temperature-regulating properties so a restful night’s sleep is most definitely on the cards.
Silk
As luxurious as bed sheets get are silk sheets. Not only are they soft on the skin, but it’s also a great choice for those who have sensitive skin. However, silk is an expensive material that also needs special attention when it comes to maintenance and care.
What you need to know before buying your next sheet set
With proper care, quality sheets can last 2 to 5 years. Thinning fabric, pilling or loss of softness are signs it’s time to upgrade.
For most cotton sheets, 200 to 400 thread count is the sweet spot. Higher isn’t always better, quality of fibre matters more than the number.
Not always, as the fabric quality plays an equally important part in how a particular set of sheets might feel. Long-staple cotton at 300 thread count will usually feel better than low-quality cotton at 800.
GSM stands for grams per square metre. It measures fabric weight, commonly used for linen and flannel.
For linen, 170 to 190 GSM is a great all-rounder. Flannel sheets are typically 160 GSM and up for warmth.
Breathable fibres like cotton percale, bamboo and linen help regulate temperature and wick moisture.
Organic cotton or bamboo sheets are often gentler on sensitive skin due to fewer chemicals in production.
