Price History
Description
Treat yourself to a bedlinen upgrade, with this Midnight Strawberry Thief bedding set from William Morris At Home. It's made from luxurious pure cotton sateen, to a refined 250 thread count. The motif was inspired by the thrushes in Morris's garden, which crept underneath his strawberry nets. The reverse of the cover and the Oxford pillowcases feature a tonal print of the same design.
Our Stylist Says
The William Morris bed set is a great choice for adding a touch of vintage charm and intricate pattern to a bedroom. I love how the midnight strawberry thief print in dark teal brings a sophisticated yet cosy vibe, making it versatile for both traditional and contemporary interiors. It works particularly well in rooms with wooden or painted furniture, especially in deep, muted colours or neutrals, which can really let the bedding stand out. For styling, consider pairing it with crisp white or soft grey sheets to balance the intricate design, and add textured cushions or throws in complementary shades like muted greens or blushes for a layered look. This bedding set is ideal if you want to create a classic yet lived-in aesthetic with a nod to heritage patterns.

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.
