These Vera 1970s-style floral duvet sets at Urban Outfitters are perfect if you want to send your bedroom back 50 or so years.
And that’s no mean feat for a bedding set. All too often, anything said to be inspired by the 1970s is usually bold shapes and op art prints, which is fine. But it’s not really representative of how the decade was.
When you see time capsule houses (like many on Wowhaus, for example), you don’t see the over-stylised finishes you imagine represented the 1970s. You see patterns like this. Bold colours, patterns…and flowers. Always lots of flowers.
Flowers seemed to be the go-to finish for everything from wallpaper to upholstery and bedding, and this mini range at Urban Outfitters captures this well.
Take your pick of two floral finishes for the bedding ranges. Both get it just right in terms of patterns and colours when it comes to 1970s style. Both are also available in single, double, and king sizes.
Prices depend on the size you go for but are between £30 and £40.
If you want more, there’s also a range of matching curtains, which sell for around the £35 mark. Because if you are going to go down the ‘70s route, you might as well go all in.
