Cotton is the bedding standard — familiar, durable, washable, and available in a range of constructions that make it suitable for every sleeping preference. At Lulu and Georgia, the cotton bedding collection brings together long-staple and Egyptian cotton sheets, duvet covers, and pillowcases in percale, sateen, and twill weaves — the fiber that most people sleep on most of the time, selected for thread quality and the finished hand of the textile rather than thread count alone.
What cotton bedding does Lulu and Georgia carry?
The collection includes cotton percale and sateen flat and fitted sheet sets, cotton duvet covers in solid and printed designs, cotton pillowcases in standard, queen, and king sizes, and coordinating shams and bed skirts. Most cotton bedding in the collection is long-staple cotton (Pima or Egyptian) for durability and softness over time. Weave options include percale for a crisp, matte finish and sateen for a smooth, slightly lustrous hand.
What is the difference between standard and long-staple cotton?
Standard cotton has shorter fibers that produce a rougher, less durable fabric. Long-staple cotton (including Pima and Egyptian cotton) has longer individual fibers that spin into smoother, stronger yarn — the resulting fabric is softer, more durable, and pills less over repeated washing. Thread count matters less than fiber quality: a 400-thread-count sheet in long-staple cotton will almost always outperform a 600-thread-count sheet in standard cotton over time.
How do I choose between cotton percale and sateen?
Choose percale if you prefer a cool, crisp, matte sheet — it breathes well and is the better choice for warm sleepers and warm climates. Choose sateen if you prefer a smooth, slightly lustrous sheet with more drape and warmth — it is better for cool sleepers and cooler climates. Both are cotton; the difference is entirely in the weave construction. For most households, having both and rotating by season is the most practical approach.
