White Elsie Cotton Linen Bed Linen

Once in a while, a duvet cover set comes along and changes everything.

Elsie is in that gang, and here’s why.

First, the fabric. A luscious blend of 85% cotton and 15% linen yarns has given us a fabric that has to be felt to be believed. Laundered to perfection, it has the relaxed look of linen, but the softness of cotton and we think it is the bee’s knees. Secondly, the delicate, stunning ruffled border, exclusive to Secret Linen Store, is embroidered and hand attached. It's delightful.

We have duvet covers and pillowcases in White Elsie Cotton Linen Bed Linen. The pillowcases are framed with the embroidery and the duvet cover has the ruffle border on three sides.

The third reason to love White Elsie Cotton Linen Bed Linen is that it is all wrapped in paper. No plastic here.

Wash Elsie with other whites at 40 degrees, hang to dry and it will be back on your bed before you can say "I can’t sleep in anything else". Ironing is not essential, but a cool iron will do no harm if you're so inclined.

Here are our top washing tips for this collection:
