Better known for her wedding dresses, Vera Wang also happens to be one of the biggest names in bedding. She applies the same principles to her sheet sets as she does to her haute couture, turning out simple yet sophisticated bedspreads to stand the test of time.
In fact, the only thing I don't like about Vera Wang bedding is the price. Outside of sales season, you could easily spend a small fortune on Vera Wang sheets and shams. So, imagine my surprise when, scouring the Amazon Prime Day sales, I stumbled upon deep discounts on Vera Wang bedding. Until 23:59 Wednesday 9 October, you can save hundreds of dollars on the best luxury bedding – but when it's gone, it's gone.
As H&G's resident sleep writer and sales hunter, I love a good bargain, but I'd never compromise quality for cost. Amazon can be one of the best places to buy bedding, but only if you know how to use it. I'd never buy anything on Amazon without thoroughly reading the reviews and double-checking the specifications.
Vera Wang bedding deals – selected by a sleep editor
If you're on the hunt for brightly colored bedding, this is not the place to shop. Vera Wang works with cool neutrals to complement any color palette and settle your circadian rhythm. Exclusively available in sizes Queen and King, Vera Wang bedding is made for master suites and bigger bedrooms. With these deep discounts for Amazon Prime Big Deal Days, the best designer bedding is finally affordable for the average American.
Sizes: Queen, King
Material: Cotton sateen
Colors: Eyelet Pink; Ivory; Lace Ivory; Pale Blue; Rose Quartz; Steel Gray; White
Includes: 1 Flat Sheet; 1 Fitted Sheet; 2 Pillowcases
+ Soft and silky
+ Wide range of cute pastels
- Less suitable for hot sleepers
Made from extra-long cotton staples and woven into silky-smooth sateen, the Vera Wang Sheet Set combines strength and softness. Each flat sheet, fitted sheet, and pillowcase is strong enough to withstand countless cycles in the washing machine and supple enough to come out nice and crisp, every time. Just one word of warning: cotton sateen is a tight weave, which means it tends to retain heat. If you suffer from night sweats or hot flushes, or you simply tend to run a little warm, then I suggest you shop for a cotton percale set, instead.
Sizes: Queen, King
Material: Polyester
Colors: Illusion Beige; Illusion Black; Illusion Gray
Includes: 1 Duvet Cover, 2 Standard Shams
+ Soft to the touch
+ Two-tone texture
- Duvet insert not included
When you shop the Amazon Prime Big Deal Days, you can pick up a duvet cover, plus two standard shams, for just $35 per piece. Each sheet and sham incorporates a textured weave to create a two-tone color scheme, with accent threading to catch the light and create a gorgeous sheen. Like all the best bedding, the Vera Wang Duvet Cover Set is machine-washable and dryer-safe for quick and convenient cleaning and comes with inner corner ties for easy attachment to your duvet insert.
Sizes: Queen, King
Material: Velvet
Colors: Gray; Charcoal Gray; Natural Ivory; Diamond Black
Includes: 1 Quilt, 2 Standard Shams
+ Luxe look and feel
+ Machine-washable and dryer-safe
- Limited size range
This is some of Vera Wang's best-rated bedding, with a 4.6 average star rating from 167 verified customers. Almost every single review mentions the luxurious look and feel of the Quilt Set, made from super-smooth velvet and woven into a windowpane pattern. This bedspread comes in a range of cool neutrals to complement any color palette. Importantly, it's practical, as well as pretty: one recent review says the quilt is 'great with animals,' hiding those unsightly hairs, 'holds up in the wash, and delivers as promised.'
Sizes: Queen, King
Material: Cotton percale
Colors: White (with blue, charcoal, or white piping)
Includes: 1 Flat Sheet; 1 Fitted Sheet; 2 Pillowcases
+ Breathable
+ Neat hemstitch detail
- Not as silky as sateen
If you suffer from nights sweats or hot flashes, or you simply tend to run a little warm, then you should steer clear of sateen in favor of cotton percale. This is a looser weave, which allows more room for air to flow through the fabric, channelling heat away from your body and out of the bed. Vera Wang cotton percale is finished with a demure hemstitch. Keep it classic with white or charcoal or add a pop of color with light blue.
Sizes: Queen, King
Material: 99% Cotton, 1% Spandex
Colors: White
Includes: 1 Comforter; 2 Shams
+ Reversible
+ Suitable for vegans
- Lacks a little loft
This reversible comforter features sleek sateen on one side and embroidered percale on the other for touchable texture. Fold down the corners of your bedspread to create a versatile bedspread. Before you buy, please note that the Luxury Comforter is filled with polyester fiberfill. That's good news for vegan shoppers and anyone with a feather allergy, but it does mean you'll miss out on the fluffy feeling of real down.
Sizes: Queen, King
Material: 100% Cotton
Colors: Zig Zag White/Black
Includes: 1 Comforter; 2 Shams
+ Dynamic stitching
+ Suitable for vegans
- Lacks the feel of real down
Subtle stitching is the best way to add a bit of interest to your bedspread. White cotton sateen forms a blank canvas, while running stitches and zig zags in black thread introduce depth and dimension. Keep it classic with a set of the best white bed sheets or experiment with natural, neutral hues. In the Vera Wang colorway, I like the look of Steel Gray and Pale Blue. Remember that this comforter is stuffed with polyester fiberfill. That's good news for vegan shoppers, but it lacks the fluffy feel of real down.
There's so much to shop in the Amazon Prime Day bedding deals. Once you've bought your sheets and shams, it's time to turn your attention to the more practical pieces, from cooling comforters to high-tech mattress toppers. Hurry, though − these deals are only live until midnight tomorrow.
