Marlow Stripe Printed Cotton Fitted Sheet - Cocoa/Vintage Blue

The Marlow Stripe fitted sheet is pure cotton, printed with a fine even stripe that runs the length of the cloth. In the photograph the two tones sit close together: a soft cocoa brown against a pale, chalky ground, so the stripe reads as gentle depth rather than a hard graphic line. The cloth has the relaxed, washed handle you can see in the way it folds and creases at the edges, which is the look of cotton that has been softened before it reaches you rather than starched flat. It comes in four sizes, Single through to Super King, so it works whether you are dressing a spare room bed or a full double.

A fitted sheet is the layer you feel against you all night, so a soft cotton one earns its place. This one suits a calm, pared-back bedroom, the kind of scheme built on muted neutrals and natural texture, and the narrow stripe gives quiet interest without competing with a patterned duvet above it. Because cotton breathes, it is a sensible year-round choice, cool enough in summer and comfortable under a heavier quilt in winter. It is part of the wider Marlow Stripe range, so you can pair it with matching bedding if you want the whole bed to read as one.

Being all cotton, it takes a warm machine wash and tumble dry well, and cotton softens further with each wash rather than wearing out quickly. The elasticated corners that every fitted sheet has hold it snug to the mattress; check your own mattress depth against the size you choose so the corners sit where they should. The edges carry twin stitch edging for a tidy, hard-wearing finish. Style it with plain pillowcases to let the stripe lead, or layer it under the coordinating Marlow pieces for a considered, tonal bed.

What is this fitted sheet made from?

It is 100% cotton, so it breathes well, feels soft against the skin and grows softer with every wash you give it.

How do I wash it?

Cotton takes a warm machine wash comfortably and tumble dries well. Washing softens the fibres further over time rather than wearing the cloth out.

What sizes does it come in?

Four sizes, Single, Double, King and Super King, so you can match it to whichever bed you are dressing.

How does the fitted sheet stay on the mattress?

Elasticated corners pull it snug all the way round. Check your mattress depth against the size you pick so it seats properly.

What colour is the stripe?

A soft cocoa brown against a pale chalky ground, a close tonal pairing that gives gentle depth rather than a strong contrast.

Is the stripe woven or printed?

The stripe is printed onto the cotton, giving a smooth even finish across the surface of the cloth.
