Price History
Description
Sleep soundly in this pure cotton duvet cover set, made to a 200 thread count and inspired by a 1790 Toile de Jouy in the V&A collection. The Garden of Love motif shows flowers, birds and pastoral figures that lend a romantic feel. A piped border lends extra crispness to the Oxford pillowcases, while a tonal striped reverse adds a refined finishing touch.
Our Stylist Says
I love this bedding set for its vibrant teal mix and classic garden-inspired print, which adds a lively yet sophisticated touch to any bedroom. It works particularly well in eclectic or traditional interiors, where you want to introduce a fresh burst of colour without overpowering the space. Pair it with neutral or soft-toned linens to balance out the bold pattern. Practical styling tips include layering with textured cushions or throws in complementary shades to add depth, and keeping accessories minimal to let the bedding be the statement. Its pure cotton fabric also makes it a practical choice for comfort and easy care, making it perfect for everyday use.

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.
