Picture this: You’ve clocked off from a busy day at a work conference. Looking for some shut-eye, you check into the 5-star hotel that is booked for you. Entering your room, the picturesque decor hits you like a lightning bolt and you realise, “this ain’t Kansas, baby”. You walk further in, only to be greeted by the comfiest yet most luxurious bed you can find. Unlike your regular hotel beds, this one exudes luxury and comfort like no other, stemming your urge to jump on it like a crazy teenager. You slowly slip into the sheets and let yourself be swaddled by extravagance.
Now fast forward to the day you’re about to check out and you get that sinking feeling that parting will be such sweet sorrow. No one will ever be able to understand the longing you have for inanimate bedding and the thought crosses your mind to try and nick the sheets but it just seems like too much trouble (not to mention illegal and potentially embarrassing). Your good sense prevails and you promise yourself to ask the concierge what brand of beddings they use, but get distracted with the hullabaloo of checkout. Days pass and you still think about that amazing feeling of being swaddled in luxury. If this moment feels like deja vu then we’ve got you covered.
Say hello to Frette, an Italian brand that is about to become a mainstay in your personal lexicon of luxury brand names. Let’s save you the time: 5-star luxury hotels and ultra high net worth individuals are simply besotted with Frette. They’ve just released their Spring/Summer 2022 collection and you’ll be thrilled to see what they have in store for you.
Frette Bedding Collections
Since 1860, Frette has mastered the art of luxurious bed and bath linens. From the weaving techniques and finishes to sourcing the finest yarns around the world, Frette’s pieces are made of unparalleled quality.
Linen Collections
Frette’s new Linen Collections have a natural feel that is light, breathable, and soft to the touch. For a modern yet timeless look, Frette’s Divine offers pure white sheets as well as the Links Embroidery Pure Linen with an iconic chain motif design. Needless to say, both are made from 100% pure linen.
Yet a simple linen can be layered to accent this ‘canvas’. Add the Rectangular Linen Crepe Light Quilt, Bold Boudoir Pillow, Decorative Cushion and Cashmere and Linen Crepe Throw and you have yourself an ensemble that transforms your bedroom into a luxury suite.

Luxury Brocade and Silk
If intricate designs in silk catch your fancy, then feast your eyes on the Luxury Brocade that has a timeless design, regal motif woven on silk to create a statement-making bed. Offered in Citrine, a blissful yellow tone, and Celestine, a calming blue hue, taking inspiration from namesake crystals. For a minimalistic look, consider the Luxury Silk collection featuring a top-of-bed runner and decorative cushions to match.
