Satin Bedsheet Set

Satin turns an ordinary bed into the centrepiece of the room. It has a soft, glossy sheen that catches the light, feels smooth and cool when you slide in, and drapes neatly over the mattress for a hotel-style finish. It is also gentler on your hair and skin than rougher fabrics, so you get the look of luxury bedding and a more comfortable night.

• A luxurious look: the satin sheen makes the bed look rich and well put-together, perfect for festivals and guests.
• Smooth on skin: less friction against your face and body as you move in your sleep.
• Better for hair: hair glides over satin instead of rubbing, so you wake up with fewer tangles.
• Easy to keep looking good: satin resists wrinkles better than many cotton sheets.

The Queen set fits mattresses up to about 6 inches / 15 cm deep, and the King set up to about 9 inches / 22 cm deep, with enough fabric to tuck under. Not sure? See our bedsheet size guide.

These are flat bedsheets, not elastic fitted sheets. The extra fabric tucks under the mattress on every side for a neat, hotel-style finish. For the neatest look, tuck the foot of the sheet first, then the sides, folding the corners in.

Satin feels cool and smooth when you first lie down, which many people love on warm nights. It is less breathable than cotton, though, so if you sleep very hot, keep the room ventilated or use our breathable 300 TC cotton bedsheet in peak summer. In winter, satin feels cosy and looks warm and rich on the bed.

Looking for a silk bedsheet? Satin gives you the same smooth, glossy look and slippery feel at a far more practical price, and it is easy to wash. Read our satin vs silk guide or compare satin vs cotton bedsheets.

Add extra satin pillow covers for more pillows, a satin cuddle pillow cover to match, and a waterproof mattress protector underneath to keep the mattress clean. Browse more in our satin bedsheets collection.

• One colour, head to toe: a satin sheet with matching pillow covers gives a calm, hotel-style look.
• Tone on tone: pair a deeper shade with a lighter pillow cover from the same colour family.
• Add texture: a cotton throw or a knitted blanket at the foot of the bed balances the satin's sheen.
• Finish with a cuddle pillow: a matching satin cuddle pillow cover completes the set.

• Wash on a cold, gentle cycle, ideally in a mesh laundry bag, and keep it away from rough items like jeans and towels.
• Use a mild detergent and no bleach.
• Air dry in the shade, not in strong direct sunlight, to protect the colour.
• If needed, iron on low on the reverse side.
