Bed linen has become increasingly important over the years. It is available in numerous variations with and without patterns and in different materials. myHOMEBOOK editor Katharina Regenthal reveals which ones will be on trend in 2025.
Bed linen is no longer just a means to an end but does more than just protect comforters and pillows. Rather, it blends in with the overall decor of the bedroom. Even if sleeping comfort is the top priority, it is no longer just the material that is considered when buying bed linen but also the look. This is because bed linen can change the entire look of the bedroom in just a few simple steps. You can read about the bed linen trends in 2025 here.
Romantic Ruffles and Gathers
2025 will be a romantic year for bed linen: comforter covers and pillowcases with ruffles, flounces, gathers, and decorative borders are all the rage. So that it doesn’t look too overloaded and ruffles and the like are in the foreground, it’s better to opt for a plain-colored version. Shades of pink and pink are particularly beautiful. But a delicate lemon yellow or soft lilac also goes well with the romantic look.
Floral Patterns and Vichy Checks
Similarly romantic — but less opulent — are the variants with floral patterns or Vichy checks. Both are ideal for the romantic country house style and feature in the bed linen trends for 2025. The colors tend to remain in a pastel palette.
Colorful Block Stripes
Bed linen will be an eye-catcher in the bedroom in 2025! Although you should be able to relax and unwind in the bedroom, you don’t have to do without patterns and color when it comes to bed linen. Because monotony is a thing of the past. Graphic patterns in bold colors are all the rage. Wide block stripes that run from top to bottom are particularly popular. Orange, green, yellow, or pink are the predominant colors here.
Tip: If this is a little too much for you, you can tone it down a little by only using patterns on the comforter — the cushions, on the other hand, can remain plain, for example, in the bold color of the stripes.
Delicate Check
Check patterns are also right on trend for bed linen in 2025. Unlike the bold block stripes, the more delicate version is more popular here. For example, a pink comforter cover with red, thin lines that form a check pattern. This version is suitable for anyone who likes colors and patterns, but in moderation.
If this is still too much color for you, don’t despair because the check trend is also available in plain bed linen. For example, in light gray with a dark gray check pattern.
Reversible Bed Linen for More Versatility
Reversible bed linen is becoming increasingly popular and will be an integral part of bed linen trends in 2025. These have the advantage of having two variants in one cover. One side is usually plain, and the other in the same or similar shade but with a pattern. This means that you can change your bed and change its look every day. You can also see both sides of a made bed as the comforter is folded down. If you have two blankets with the same cover, you can also vary here and put one or the other side up.
From “Mocha Mousse” to Caramel
“Mocha Mousse” is the Pantone color of the year 2025 — and this trendy shade is naturally also reflected in the bed linen. Warm brown tones invite you to dream and relax — and are, therefore, ideal for blankets and pillows on the bed. It is particularly cozy and stylish if you choose different shades. A rich chocolate brown with a caramel-colored bedspread form the ideal duo in the bedroom.
Tone on Tone for More Relaxation
The bedroom has long since become a place of relaxation and retreat. For those who prefer fewer patterns and bold colors, 2025 has something to offer. Choosing tone-on-tone bed linen looks harmonious and straightforward. This is basically possible with all colors — but shades of greige or bleu are particularly suitable, as is a soft forest green or sand and cream tones.

Quality and Comfort
In 2025, quality and comfort will still be at the forefront of bed linen. That’s why you should pay attention to the material when buying and avoid synthetic fabrics. The money you save initially will have to be spent again in the end because you will need a new cover. Fabrics such as muslin, jersey, seersucker, or linen are particularly comfortable. Silk pillowcases were already popular last year because they are particularly gentle on the hair — this trend will continue in 2025 for bed linen.
