Price History
Description
This luxurious Laura Ashley bedding set takes design inspiration from the delicate shapes and textures of the pussy willow. It's made from 200 thread count cotton sateen, for a lustrous sheen and a gloriously soft handfeel. Both the duvet cover and the pillowcases are reversible, so you can customise your look. Matching items are available.
Our Stylist Says
This linen set is a versatile choice that effortlessly elevates both traditional and contemporary interiors. I love its soft, understated colour palette of lavender and duck egg, which creates a calm and refined ambience. The sateen finish adds a subtle sheen, making it feel luxurious without being overly formal. It works particularly well in bedrooms with soft neutral palettes or pastels, and can be easily paired with textured throws, natural timber furniture, or metallic accents for a layered look. For styling tips, consider layering with textured cushions in complementary shades or adding a cosy knit blanket in a neutral tone for a more inviting, lived-in feel. Practical and elegant, it’s an ideal option for those looking to create a restful, stylish bedroom sanctuary.

About Marks & Spencer
History and Expansion
Marks and Spencer, often lovingly called "Marks and Sparks" or "M&S", has been a staple in the UK market since its founding in 1884. Over the years, the brand has seen tremendous growth, with 1,064 stores across the UK and an additional 406 locations worldwide as of 2023.
Historically, M&S was celebrated for its commitment to selling British-made goods, pioneering the "St Michael" brand in 1928 which honoured its co-founder Michael Marks.
As they grew, M&S maintained its reputation for quality, fair value, and innovative customer policies, even allowing returns with full cash refunds regardless of purchase date.
Clothing & Home Business Endeavours
In recent years, M&S has focused on modernising its Clothing & Home business, striving to offer contemporary, stylish products that resonate with their 22 million customers.
A noteworthy move was their acquisition of Jaeger in 2021, a brand that shares a founding year with M&S. Under M&S's umbrella, Jaeger remains an independent brand, renowned for its timeless elegance, and is now available on M&S's website and in select M&S stores across the UK and Ireland.
Sustainability and Innovations
Throughout its existence, Marks and Spencer has demonstrated commitment to improving customer experience and sustainability.
In the 1950s, they introduced hygiene training for canteen staff, and by the 1960s had implemented thermostatically controlled refrigerators for enhanced energy efficiency.
M&S has been at the forefront of many retail innovations, from introducing "sell by dates" in the early '70s to enhance food quality, to banning smoking in all their stores as early as 1959 due to fire hazards.
The brand's long standing dedication to quality, customer relations, and sustainability remains evident in their practices today.
