Fall 2024 Color Trends:
This season, deep, rich tones paired with earthy neutrals dominate. Here are the colors you’ll want to incorporate into your bedding for a stylish fall update:
Dark mauve: Adds warmth and depth, perfect for quilts or accent pillows.
Spiced Ochre: A nod to autumn leaves, this golden hue works well as a pop of color in your throw or quilt.
Forest Green: An earthy, calming shade that pairs beautifully with natural textures like a fur throw or woven blankets.
Burnt Orange: Bright yet cozy, it’s an excellent accent color for throw pillows or a quilt.
Muted Clay and Terracotta: These soft, grounded tones make for versatile bedding staples like pillow shams and duvets.
Cream and Sand Tones: Ideal for balancing bold colors, these neutrals add a sophisticated touch to your base layers.
The Perfect Bedding Formula: Layering for Comfort and Style
Step 1: Start with the Foundation—Soft Sheets and Pillow Cases
Your foundation sets the tone for a comfortable night's sleep. Start with a soft sheet set in crisp white or creamy, off-white tones. These classic shades create a clean, serene backdrop for layering, allowing the richer fall colors to stand out. Opt for materials like organic cotton or bamboo, which offer breathability and comfort year-round. Stick to solid colors with no patterns or stripes for a timeless, elegant look that complements the cozy, layered bedding style.
Step 2: The Quilt
Next, bring in warmth with a quilt. This is where you can start playing with textures. Velvet quilts are especially popular this season, adding a touch of luxurious softness and sheen to your bed. Choose rich fall colors like caramel, dark mauve, gray, plum, burnt orange, mocha, or beige to create an instant cozy feel. These deep, warm hues will envelop your space in a welcoming autumnal atmosphere, perfect for snuggling up during the cooler months.

Step 3: The Duvet
After your quilt, it’s time to add a duvet, which you can style by folding it neatly at the foot of the bed for an effortless, layered look. This layer adds both style and practicality, especially as temperatures dip. Opt for a duvet in caramel or burnt orange to inject warmth into the room. For a modern, sophisticated look, a gray duvet pairs beautifully with plums and mauves, creating a serene but chic ambiance. Organic cotton or linen duvets are excellent choices for a textured, natural feel.

Step 3: The Fur Throw or Blanket
Nothing says fall like a faux fur throw or a textured blanket draped at the foot of your bed. Choose something soft in a warm tone like spiced ochre or muted clay. Not only does this add a luxurious feel, but it’s perfect for pulling up when you need extra warmth during those crisp evenings.
Step 4: Throw Pillows and Lumbar Pillow
To minimize pillow clutter, use pillow inserts and change out pillow covers seasonally. This allows you to easily switch styles and colors while saving storage space. For a custom-tailored look, choose pillow inserts that are two inches larger than the cover—such as using a 26-inch insert with a 24-inch cover. This creates a fuller, more polished appearance. When styling, have fun with textures and prints! Incorporate pillow inserts in a variety of sizes, from 20 to 26 inches, using a mix of solid and patterned pillow covers. Pair textured pillows with patterned designs in autumn tones and geometric prints. Complete the arrangement with a lumbar pillow—select a long lumbar in a neutral hue or textured fabric to balance the boldness of the throw pillows.

Pro Tip: Mixing Textures and Prints
Don’t be afraid to mix it up! Combining velvet, faux fur, linen, and cotton fabrics adds depth and visual interest to your bedding. Stick to a cohesive color palette, but play with prints, organic patterns, or stripes to bring your space to life.
