Add some instant smartness to your space

Much like a good white set, we'd recommend keeping some navy blue bedding handy in your airing cupboard. This versatile shade is chic, sophisticated and really easy to make look expensive when paired with the right extras. It's also less risky than a white set – far less likely to pick up stains!

As it's still chilly outside, dress your new set for winter with chunky ochre throws and cushions. If you like a really classic look, opt for a crisp, clean scheme with a white bedspread and white sheets.

We've found plenty of cosy options available in a range of materials, depending on your preference – including cooling Egyptian cotton, cosy linen and even faux fur to wrap up in during the dead of winter. There are also lots of individual pieces available to buy, so you can mix and match, if you're looking to create a specific colour scheme for your room.

Here are our favourite navy bedding sets we've found to refresh your bedroom for 2022.

Egyptian cotton threads are longer than traditional options, which gives the bedding that smooth, strong quality. M&S's Egyptian cotton bedding is available in a great range of colours (including this smart navy option), with an impressive number of matching extras too (we're always thankful when brands offer deep fitted sheets!). As an extra bonus, it doesn't even need ironing – nice.

Sizes available: Single, double, king, super king Sets available?  No, but there's plenty of items and colours to mix and match Material: Egyptian cotton

One for the winter months, naturally – we can't really imagine anything more cosy than tucking ourselves into a furry duvet set on chilly nights. The only problem would be peeling ourselves out of bed in the morning! 

Sizes available: Single, double, king, super king Sets available?  Yes, a duvet cover and two pillowcases Material: Faux fur

Big white polka dots add a playful touch to this dark navy set. We like the addition of some additional white pillows behind the blue ones, as has been styled here. 

Sizes available: Single, double, king, super king Sets available?  Yes, a duvet and two pillowcases Material: Cotton

This angular diamond patterm will give your bedroom a cool modern feel. Pair with Scandi or more minimal furniture and accessories to complete the look.

Sizes available: Single, double, king, super king Sets available?  Yes, a duvet and two pillowcases Material: Cotton

This is a bedspread, rather than a duvet set. That opulent deep blue hue and the luxurious velvet finish will instantly take your space from bedroom to boudoir.

Sizes available: Medium, large Material: Velvet/polyester

This one's pricey, but it is totally gorgeous – and has a luxurious 1000 thread count. Pair with some brass bedside lamps and deep wood furniture for a truly regal feel. Yes, it's expensive, but you pay more for good design – and Holsper has plenty of intricate styles in 100% Egyptian cotton, so you get what you pay for. 

Sizes available: Double, king Sets available?  Yes Material: Egyptian cotton

We love reversible bedding sets – they make for one of the easiest way to give your bedroom a quick style refresh. Use the darker side during colder months, then switch to the fresh white side come springtime. We love the pretty florals, featuring seasonal blooms, too.

Sizes available: Single, double, king, super king Sets available?  Yes Material: Cotton

If you're just looking for a classic quality navy duvet set, this is a good option. We like the smart Oxford corners on the pillowcases, which up the fanciness-factor. Plus, there's 20% off at the moment, so now's the time to buy if you're tempted.

Sizes available: Single, double, king, super king Sets available?  No, but there's plenty of items and colours to mix and match Material: Cotton/linen mix

As well as its luxurious range of linen bedding, SLS also has a selection of beautiful patterned cotton sheets. This subtle sateen option has a real Art Deco sensibility – and it's reversible, too. 

Sizes available: Double, king, super king, emperor Sets available?  No, but there's plenty of items and colours to mix and match Material: Cotton

The quilting here gives this a real feeling of weightiness – as does the velvet finish on the top. Hot sleeper? No problem – the reserve side is made from cooling cotton, so you won't end up sweating throughout the night. You can save £20 right now – and it's available in a choice of four colours. 

Sizes available: Single, double, king, super king Sets available?  Yes Material: Cotton/velvet

Here's a very similar, but cheaper, version from Dunelm.

Sizes available: Single, double, king, super king Sets available?  Yes Material: Polyester

Looking for something really luxurious? John Lewis's Ultimate Collection fits that bill. Quality Egyptian cotton, 1000 thread count and that gorgeous sapphire hue will create a upmarket luxury hotel feel without having to leave your home.

Sizes available: Double, king, super king Sets available?  No, but there's plenty of items and colours to mix and match Material: Egyptian cotton

You can save 30% on this dramatic floral Ted Baker set in January. If you're brave enough to go dark with your walls, this would be a perfect finishing touch for your bedroom scheme. 

Sizes available: Double Sets available?  No, but there's plenty of items to mix and match Material: Cotton

So, this one isn't navy per se, but it does have smart navy trims. Pair with the velvet bed throw above to create a sophisticated scheme that's more versatile throughout the year. 

Sizes available: Single, double, king, super king Sets available?  No, mix and match Material: Cotton

Another classic navy set here – this one is a little more vibrant than some of the others blues on this list. As a bonus, this set comes with a sheet, which is unusual, and you can choose between soft washed cotton or crisp percale. 

Sizes available: Double, king, super king Sets available?  Yes, pillows, sheets and a duvet cover Material: Washed or percale cotton

This gorgeous linen set is more of blue-black than navy, but we had to include it as it's one of our favourite bedding sets we've tried. It's soft, cosy and creates a lived-in vibe that's really comforting when you enter the room. The colour is lovely, too – we paired ours with a second pair of pale pink pillows and a matching throw to finish the look.

Sizes available: Single, double, king, super king Sets available?  Yes Material: Linen

We've tried this set at home and can confirm that this muted autumnal set really looks lovely on. The bedspread went perfectly with our sage green bedding and received plenty of compliments. Buy it now to nab the 50%  discount and store it away until next year.
