Our Stylist Says
The M&S Cotton Rich Base Valance in black is a versatile piece that adds a sleek, finished look to any bed. I love it for its practical yet polished appeal, making it suitable for both contemporary and traditional interiors. The black colour provides a modern, understated touch that can seamlessly complement various colour schemes while also helping to conceal any bedding mess underneath. I recommend pairing it with crisp white or neutral bedding for a clean contrast, or with richer hues for a layered, cosy aesthetic. Practical styling tips include choosing a lightweight cotton-rich fabric for ease of washing and maintenance, and ensuring the valance is slightly longer than your bed to create a neat, tailored finish. It works well in bedrooms aiming for a minimalist or understated elegant look.

About Marks & Spencer
Founded in 1844, Marks & Spencer are an iconic brand that provides well-designed pieces that combine comfort and durability.
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.
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.
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.
