Review on Rivet Modern Shibori Watercolor Stripe Bedding Set - Indigo, Full/Queen by Nancy Russell

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Wonderful print - less than great quality

Really beautiful pattern and excellent quality fabric. It’s not very soft, more of a linen-like feel and it’s a textured knit so it’s not a cuddly bed covering. To be fair, we are replacing our current super soft, cuddly bed covering from Pottery Barn because it stained within the first year. I’m hoping this will be more durable.I’ve attached pictures of the duvet cover and pillow cases thrown on top of the bed so it’s a bit messy but a good idea of the pattern. It’s very eye catching. I’ll add some pillows to match the other colors in the room and it should blend in well. That’s another bonus with this piece - it’s eye catching but with the right pillows it could easily blend in with most decor.Other reviews stated a problem with smell but I just unpacked mine and it’s fine - smells like the plastic wrap it came in but nothing too strong.EDIT: I’m taking 2 stars off and am considering taking them all away. I had done a cursory inspection when this first arrived but I folded it and put it back in the case it came in so we could start using it when we put our house in the market and needed to hide our old, super soft but super ugly comforter. I pulled this out today to put on the bed and there are multiple holes all around. It’s just really sloppy stitching! I’m so annoyed. I really like the set but I do expect that the sowing be done properly at the very minimum.

Pros
  • Two small slits at the top corners are designed to simplify the chore of inserting your duvet into the cover. This clever feature allows for the duvet to be effortlessly pulled up into the corners for a tight fit
Cons
  • The shibori pattern may be too bold and statement-making for some consumers' tastes
