The Dusk Bordeaux Contrast Floral Matelasse Bedspread costs just £28 and features a mustard base with a white floral pattern — shoppers say it makes their bedroom look ‘beautiful’
If you’ve been following homeware trends, you’ll likely have noticed that ‘cottagecore’ ranks among this year’s most sought-after décor styles. It combines the charm of rural countryside living with understated, authentic pieces that feel cosy and welcoming while remaining contemporary and fresh.
Fortunately, achieving this aesthetic doesn’t require costly or labour-intensive renovations. Rather than re-wallpapering entire rooms or investing in pricey fixtures, simply swapping out your duvet cover or introducing accessories to the bed can make a significant difference, given the bed is typically the largest piece of furniture.
At Dusk, I’ve discovered a bedspread that appears straight out of a storybook cottage. The Bordeaux Contrast Floral Matelasse Bedspread is priced at £28 but appears far more premium thanks to its enchanting yet sophisticated design.
The Bordeaux Contrast Floral Matelasse Bedspread can transform any bed into a striking focal point. It features a mustard base complemented by a contrasting white floral motif, creating a design that’s ideal for spring and summer months.
The matelassé weave provides a textured finish and lightweight quality that’s perfect for layering throughout different seasons. Generously proportioned at 250x260cm, this bedspread is crafted to drape gracefully across a king or super king bed, offering complete coverage with an elegant overhang on both sides.
For a double bed, anticipate a more relaxed, generously proportioned aesthetic. Layer it over crisp white bedding to make the pattern stand out, or pair it with the coordinating cushion for an effortlessly polished result, reports the Manchester Evening News.
Meanwhile, Dunelm’s Pippa Quilted Bedspread comes in a selection of five shades for £45. Crafted from soft fabric that feels warm and welcoming, the bedspread features intricate quilting and delicate embroidery that bring a hint of elegance to your room.
Alternatively, Next’s Sage Green Crinkle Textured Bedspread is priced between £35 and £65 depending on your chosen size. The distinctive crinkle effect brings a sophisticated touch, while the shade works beautifully with any bedroom décor style.
Over at Dusk, the Bordeaux Contrast Floral Matelasse Bedspread has accumulated nothing but rave reviews. One delighted customer said: “Very good quality, lovely colour. Value for money.”
A second wrote: “I have been looking for some time for a colour match for my duvet cover. When I saw this I had no hesitation in buying it. I also purchased the cushion covers to match. My bed looks beautiful.”
“Since moving to my new home and having more rooms to furnish I was delighted to find Dusk,” a third penned. “Really amazing quality at affordable prices.
“The bedspread and cushion covers are absolutely stunning. Soft material and so pretty. I’m very happy, thank you.” It is worth noting, however, that the Bordeaux Contrast Floral Matelasse Bedspread is crafted from a polyester and cotton blend. While this renders it soft, long-lasting and simple to launder, there are a few potential downsides to bear in mind.
This particular fabric can be quite susceptible to pilling, gradually developing small, irritating balls of tangled fluff across the bedspread’s surface. It also retains heat, which is ideal for chillier rooms but less desirable during warmer spells.
That said, another satisfied customer raved about their latest Dusk purchase, commenting: “Just love this. I keep walking in to my bedroom and smiling. I’m so very happy with the throw and cushions.”
A further five-star review states: “I love this bedspread and it goes well with the colour of my bedroom décor. Was a good price and is good quality.”
