The Return of the Bedspread: Why It’s Making a Comeback

Over the last decade, the interior design world veered toward the bare minimum—white duvets, low-profile beds, and hotel-style sheeting. Bedspreads became, for a while, forgotten. Too traditional. Too layered. Too… extra.

But not anymore.

At The Pillow Company, we’re seeing the return of the bedspread—not as a nostalgic gesture, but as a statement of elegance, order, and tactile beauty.

Here’s why this timeless staple is back—and how to style it beautifully.

1. It Instantly Elevates the Bed

A bedspread adds structure to the room’s largest surface. Where duvets collapse and wrinkle, a bedspread offers definition. The result is architectural: a clean, composed look that immediately elevates the entire space.

Think of it as a tailored suit for your bed—precise, confident, and finished.

2. It Creates a Foundation for Styling

With a bedspread in place, the rest of your bedding becomes a story in layers.
You can build upon it with:

• 2 x 22” cushions at the back

• 2 x 18” cushions for mid-layer texture

• 1 x 14x24” lumbar for contrast

• A throw casually draped or folded at the foot

The bedspread anchors this setup and ensures it never feels messy.

3. It’s Practical—Not Just Decorative

Beyond aesthetics, a well-constructed bedspread serves a functional role:

• Protects sheets and duvet from dust or sunlight

• Allows for single-layer lounging during warm months

• Easy to fold down when it's time to turn in

Luxury isn’t about excess—it’s about ease. A bedspread brings both beauty and everyday utility.

4. It Signals Considered Living

In many homes, the bed is a private space—rarely seen, rarely styled. But in a home designed with intention, every space deserves care.

Adding a bedspread to your morning routine is a small act with a big impact. It says: this space matters. It turns a place of sleep into a place of style.

5. The Modern Bedspread Has Been Reimagined

At The Pillow Company, we’ve designed our bedspreads to feel subtle yet sophisticated.

No oversized quilting. No excess weight. Just clean, elegant lines in materials like:

• Cotton satin with a soft matte sheen

• Lightly padded velvet for richer textures

• Reversible options for flexible styling

They’re created to complement our cushion collections—and stand beautifully on their own.

The Pillow Company Perspective:

We don’t see the bedspread as old-fashioned.
We see it as a return to refinement.

When styled with care, a bedspread doesn’t overwhelm—it anchors. It gives your bedroom presence. And it proves that the quietest details often speak the loudest.
