If you are looking to create a romantic look for your bedroom (think Gone with the Wind), then a classic floral may be just the thing. Floral bedding ensembles have been a top seller for decades and still continue to top the charts due to their feminine appeal. There is something about a floral design that is indicative of sensuality and good old-fashioned romance. Today’s florals run the gamut from classical elegance to playful and flirty, so there is sure to be a pattern that will strike your fancy.

My favorite newcomer to the floral scene is Rose Garden by Croscill. This ensemble is graceful and delicate, featuring an embroidered rose pattern on a cream colored background. One of Croscill’s classic floral patterns, Chambord, continues to turn heads with striking amethyst accents. Princess, another new pattern from the house of Croscill, is a sweet yellow and white quilted floral with charming eyelet accents.

Thomasville has been a creator of beautiful floral bedding for many years, and the current collection is no exception. Bloomfield is a gorgeous classic English floral in shades of white, lavendar, sage, coral, and pink. For a classic floral with a modern color scheme, try Queen’s Gate. In a palette of spring green, canary yellow and pink orchid, this ensemble escorts floral bedding into a new era. Thomasville has a wide variety of beautiful florals, but a few other favorites are Juliette, Poetry, and Serafina.

The timeless beauty of floral bedding will never go out of style. Floral patterns are one of the most prevalent themes in the bedding market, and it doesn’t look as though that will change any time soon. After all, designers are inspired by the beauty of the world around them, and what could be more inspiring than a flower. The flower is a living jewel, its sole purpose to be decorative and alluring. No wonder flowers are so romantic.
