Blu Dot’s First Bedding Collection Doubles Down on Texture

Blu Dot is celebrating its 25th anniversary with a blast as it rolls out its very first complete line of bedding. To create the collection, the Minneapolis-based brand teamed up with a family-owned factory in Portugal that specializes in cotton and linen—and the resulting soft goods are imbued with saturated hues and texture galore.

Fans of the brand will find a familiar cast of punchy colors—including mustard, tomato, loden, and gray blue—as well as soothing neutrals and a smattering of patterned weaves. The palette is carefully considered—you’d be hard pressed to pair two hues that clash, which helps take the guesswork out of dressing the bed.

In terms of handfeel, the Egyptian cotton percale sheets are crisp and cool, while the stonewashed linen sets have a variegated texture and a cozy softness straight off the shelf. The toppings steal the show, however, with richly textured weaves that widely in weight and depth.

Standout pieces include the wavy Ripple coverlet, the waffle-woven Cascade duvet, the squared-stitched Ester quilt, the puffy Popple duvet, and the hefty Rainy linen throw.

At $125 to $325, the pieces are competitively priced compared to Parachute, Brooklinen, and other high-end bedding companies—and all of the sets come with pillowcases or shams, so you may even get more bang for your buck.

With a strong palette and a range of textures, the collection layers on variety and versatility. If you’re feeling monochromatic, you could dress your bed in textural twists on a single color, and it’d never feel boring. And yes, you could also match your bedding to your Blu Dot chair or dresser, if you so desire.
