Fitted sheets make sense in theory (of course), but we all know that in practice, they can be a nuisance. The corners are difficult to pin around the mattress, and you end up having to reposition them every morning. So what if I told you you could skip it altogether?
I was recently invited to an event hosted by luxury bedding brand Frette, where I was given a bed-making masterclass. My biggest takeaway? Forgoing a fitted sheet and opting for a neatly-folded flat sheet instead. That's right. Frette's UK general retail manager, Saemeyeah Sheikh, shared that the secret to a high-end bed is starting with a flat sheet folded with 'hospital corners' rather than a fitted sheet.
