Best Lovely Linen Combinations For A Cozy Fall Fully Tested

Linen has long been a favorite of sleepers during the summer months thanks to its fresh, cool feel. However, bedding experts know that the material is also a perfect option for fall, when warm days start to transition to cooler nights. Crisp and breathable, linen allows for easy temperature control, especially when it’s layered with other pieces like quilts and comforters. As a bonus, the earthy color palette common among linen blending products is a natural match for fall’s warm hues. Consider toasty shades like tan, rust, and even red and plum, along with classic neutrals like ivory and charcoal. The only limit is your own taste and imagination. At Latest Bedding, we’re passionate about helping sleepers make smooth, hassle-free transitions from the dog days of summer to the long, frozen winter nights. Keep reading for our expert tips on choosing linen bedding, along with the lovely linen color combinations that might surprise you in the best possible way. 

Embracing the Spirit of the Season

If the coming cool weather makes you feel like redecorating your bedroom, you’re not alone. Many people see autumn as the perfect time to switch up their decor, and for good reason. Traditionally, fall is viewed as a time of change, with both the weather and vegetation shifting in this season. In particular, it feels natural to change up your bedding design as the days grow shorter and the nights longer. You’ll want to spend more time in your bedroom when you add linen sheets and other cozy touches that make it feel like a sanctuary.

As the temperature gets cooler and the leaves brighter, you may want to incorporate some warm hues into your bedding design. We especially love earthy hues such as tan, rust, olive, and crimson as they’re reminiscent of the world outside your windows during this part of the year. Build out your space by adding plenty of cozy touches such as textured rugs, throw blankets, and pillows. The result will be a room designed with rest and relaxation in mind and one you’ll long to retreat to after a long workday. 

Switching up your room design in the fall is also a good idea for those prone to seasonal depression. As sun exposure is limited, it’s natural for mental health and mood to suffer. A beautifully designed bedroom can go a long way toward lifting spirits on the dim winter days ahead. 

Benefits of Linen Bedding

Linen’s built-in climate control factor makes it a great option for summer. However, the fabric also has plenty of benefits during the cold part of the year. The long, loose weave of the material is great for absorbing moisture, so sleepers don’t have to worry about waking up in a pool of sweat. You’ll stay cool and dry no matter how the temperature fluctuates during September and October. And because you can easily add an extra layer during the winter months, you won’t have to choose between shivering and overheating. To that end, linen works well as a year-round bedding choice in both primary bedrooms and guest suites.

Additionally, linen bedding is beloved for its durability. Strong and long-lasting, the material holds up well through washing and drying. In fact, many customers report that their linen bedding actually gets softer with time and trips through the laundry. It’s a great option for sleepers with small children and pets, as they’ll save both time and money toting bedding to the dry cleaner. 

The Linen Aesthetic

Along with the practical factors, linen’s appearance makes it a favorite among discerning shoppers. In fact, the material has a naturally wrinkled look that creates a feeling of relaxation. Easy and effortless, linen bedding inspires individuals to snuggle up and sleep in. It’s a perfect choice for chilly fall mornings spent lying in bed either alone or with someone you love. 

Linen Color Combinations for Autumn and Beyond

Once you’ve decided on linen bedding, it’s time for the fun part - deciding what colors to pair together when creating your dream space. The good news is that the linen comforters, sheets, and accessories from Latest Bedding are available in a host of intriguing colors and prints. Whether your taste tends toward the simple or the bold, the calm or the vibrant, the rustic or the elegant, a linen bedding design exists to meet your needs. 

While ultimately the right linen bedding scheme is whichever one fills you with joy when you walk through the door, our bedding experts have done the research to determine the hottest color combinations for 2025. If you’re looking to revamp your room this fall, check out these linen color pairings perfect for the coming season. 

Orange and Cream

Warm and rustic, orange is a popular choice for linen bedding in particular and fall decor more generally. After all, the shade is reminiscent of autumnal leaves, plump pumpkins, and fall flowers like mums. While decorating with this bold shade may seem intimidating, you can make it feel more natural by pairing the color with a neutral tone such as ivory or cream. Put together, the shades have a soothing feel that’s perfect for inspiring rest and sleep. We especially love how the colors combine in the Anatolia Linen Duvet Cover from Pine Cone Hill. Inspired by the striking beauty of Far East aesthetics, this duvet cover is crafted from fine linen and boasts a digitally printed patchwork pattern in shades of terracotta, brick, blue, java, and cream. While you can purchase this eye-popping piece on its own, additional items like the Anatolia Linen Pillow Sham and the Anatolia Linen Curtain are available for an added cost. So you won’t have to spend hours traipsing through stores for a matching look. Pair the duvet cover with a pair of cream-colored linen sheets for a look that’s simple yet stunning. 

Orange and Red

Feel like turning up the temperature on your bedroom design? Pair that orange linen bedding piece with some bold red accents. Shades like paprika, burgundy, and crimson all give spaces a serious dose of warmth and life, which is perfect for combatting the winter chill. For a sophisticated touch that’s also functional, consider the Linen Berry Throw from designer favorite Ann Gish. Featuring a fresh pop of red along with shades like white and blue, the blanket measures 96 inches by 50 inches, so it’s perfect for snuggling alone or with a special someone. Note that this piece is dry clean only. A decorative throw pillow measuring 24 inches by 24 inches is available for an added cost, though you can also choose to pair it with your own designs.

Orange and Green

It’s no surprise that design experts regularly pair orange bedding with pops of green. After all, these are two of the most prominent shades you can expect to see during the autumn. We especially love how orange decor looks when placed alongside muted green hues like sage and olive. The end result is both fresh and sophisticated. Consider the Egyptian Cotton European Linen Euro Sham from Pure Parima. A first of its kind blend of certified extra-long staple Egyptian cotton and delightful European linen, the product has a lived-in softness that will feel lovely under your head. Because both Egyptian cotton and linen are known for their airy, breathable texture, you don’t have to worry about oily skin and breakouts. And thanks to the product’s durability, you can simply toss it in the machine when it needs laundering. We love the sage shade of this product, though it’s also available in fall-friendly hues like Earth and Moon. Mix and match for a space that’s uniquely suited to you.

Speaking of sage bedding, we love the idea of stretching out on the Egyptian Cotton-European Linen Sheet Set. Available in sizes queen and king, the collection by Pure Parima includes a flat sheet, a fitted sheet, and two matching pillowcases, all in the same cotton-linen blend. Note that the elasticized fitted sheet easily accommodates mattresses up to 2 inches thick. 

Orange and Pink

Think orange and pink make for strange bedfellows? You may want to think again, as fashion-forward designers are increasingly pairing clay-like pink shades with burnt orange, rust, and turmeric. Warm and playful, the color combo is reminiscent of fallen leaves and desert sunsets, so you have lots of options for creating a look that’s uniquely you. 

Those seeking a pink linen comforter perfect for fall may be drawn to the airy warmth of the 

Lush Linen Puff Comforter. Created by Pine Cone Hill, the quilt is beloved in part for its lived-in quality. All you have to do is shake the comforter, and the bed is magically made and deliciously inviting. As a bonus, this stonewashed item has a supple softness. And because it’s made from linen, you can rest assured that it will get softer and cozier with every wash. It’s worth noting that the Lush Linen line includes several items, including the Lush Linen Puff Sham and the Lush Linen Sheet Set. So you can minimize time spent searching for coordinating pieces and maximize time enjoying your beautiful new bedroom. 

Prefer a warmer pink in the bedroom? Available in a soft salmon-pink shade, the Biella Cameo & Parchment Pillow Sham by Designers Guild pairs beautifully with rust and other orange hues. Made from 100 percent pure linen, this piece is pre-washed and tumbled. The result is a delightfully soft item that requires no ironing or pressing to maintain its beauty. Pair it with your existing bedding or pick up the matching Biella Cameo & Parchment Duvet Cover for an extra cost. 

Yellow and Gold

As the days get shorter and the nights longer, many of us are seeking ways of increasing the amount of sunlight in our lives. While we can’t control the weather, we can add sunny shades like yellow and gold to our bedroom design. Consider hues like mustard, lemon, goldenrod, and russet, all of which are sure to turn up the heat in your space. We’re particularly enamored with the Noorim Mustard Duvet Cover from Togas. Perfect for covering your existing duvet, the piece is crafted from bright Norim bed linen. Made from a silk-satin-cotton blend with a density of 300 TC, this product is beloved for its moisture absorption and durability. Because the material has been double mercerized, it’s guaranteed to feel even softer and cozier than traditional cotton while offering all the material’s health benefits. Plus, the light sheen adds style and interest. The Noorim Duvet Cover features a collection of warm shades, including sand, sun, and mustard. The stylized oriental girih pattern is guaranteed to catch the eye while adding life and interest to your space. 

Coffee and Toast

Looking for a warm fall bedding option that’s also on the neutral side? Consider shades of brown like coffee and toast. Soft and inviting, these hues also have the benefit of being basic enough to pair with existing decor. So you can upgrade your space without replacing every piece you own. For stylish warmth on a budget, consider the Egyptian Cotton-European Linen Fitted Sheet in Earth. Created by Pure Parima, the product boasts an unbeatable blend of 55 percent pure Egyptian cotton and 45 percent European linen. With a buttery soft feel and moisture-wicking finish, the sheet will keep you cool and cozy regardless of the weather outside your bedroom windows. As a bonus, the bedding item is OEKO-TEX certified, so you can feel good about where you’re laying your head at night. 

Need a linen comforter quilt set for easy layering? Stay warm in fall and winter with the Egyptian Cotton-European Linen Quilt Set in Moon. This sleekly, neutral design mixes Egyptian cotton and linen in a channel quilt stitch pattern. At once cozy and breathable, the product is thin enough that you can fold it up and store it during the summer months and take it out again when the weather turns warm. 

Ivory and Tan

A lighter bedding color combo, ivory and tan, pairs beautifully and does a great job of making small rooms look spacious. And because they’re one of the most neutral options available, you don’t have to worry about them looking good with your furniture and wall colors. We’re big fans of the 

Linen Duvet Cover Set in Natural. Part of Ann Gish’s Art of Home collection, the set boasts a simple, effortless elegance. Made from 100 percent linen, it comes with a duvet cover and two matching pillow shams. And because it’s machine washable, buyers don’t have to worry about trips to the dry cleaner. The Linen Duvet Cover Set is available in sizes queen and king. It ships fast and free, so you can start enjoying your purchase sooner.

Tan and Blue

Prefer a bedding scheme reminiscent of those beautiful, bright autumn skies? Consider incorporating shades of blue and tan into your room design. Warm and soothing, this color combo celebrates the beauty of a crisp fall day in the mountains. For the ideal lived-in look, choose the Lush Linen Stripe Duvet Cover from Pine Cone Hill. Supple and relaxed, the stonewashed linen texture is sure to get softer with every wash. Plus, the breathable fabric transitions seamlessly from summer to fall. As a bonus, the simple block stripe adds a graphic edge to give your room extra character.

Want a wider stripe pattern? The Newport White Natural Blue Duvet Cover has a slightly more modern feel thanks to the alternating thick and thin stripes of color. Created by Lili Alessandra, the duvet cover is crafted from cooling cotton linen in rustic shades of white, natural, and blue. It’s machine washable, so you don’t have to waste time toting bedding to the dry cleaner. Wanna build out your design scheme? Pick up additional coordinating pieces, including Newport Decorative Throw Pillows, for an extra cost. 

Those seeking to break free of the stripe trend may want to consider a fresh floral printed piece. Offering a touch of spring during the cool part of the year, the Ines Linen Pillow Sham from Pine Cone Hill is both soft and striking. With a rustic washed linen base, the pillow features piped edges. It’s machine washable and looks lovely with a cream or tan comforter set. 

All White 

Thanks to the natural textured beauty of linen bedding, an all white color scheme is anything but dull. If you’re facing a lot of changes in the coming autumn, consider simplifying things inside the bedroom with simple, chic white bedding. We especially adore the  from the brand TL at Home. Made from a combo of undyed cotton and linen, this health-forward piece is simple yet distinctive thanks to the textured weave and natural edges. Stonewashed for added comfort, the item is machine washable and guaranteed not to shrink. Measuring 50 inches by 90 inches, it looks as charming at the foot of the bed as it does tossed over a favorite armchair or chaise. 

Want to build out your room while maintaining the all-white scheme? You can’t go wrong with the Emily White Linen Diamond Quilted Coverlet from Lili Alessandra. Clean yet curated, the piece is crafted from pre-washed white linen. Available in sizes queen and king, it boasts a classic diamond pattern.
