Common questions about fabrics collection
Thread count measures how many threads are woven per square inch; 300+ is genuinely premium, whilst 200–250 offers solid quality for everyday use. Anything below 150 feels thin and pills easily. However, thread count alone doesn't guarantee quality—fibre origin and weave type matter equally. Egyptian or Pima cotton at 250 thread count outperforms generic cotton at 400. Check the label for fibre composition and look for 'long-staple' cotton, which resists pilling and softens beautifully with washing. Premium bed sets in this range typically cost £120–£250 and reward you with years of comfort.
