If you want to sleep well in warm weather, you need to choose bedding that's lightweight and breathable.

That's why savvy shoppers are snapping up muslin bedding this summer, in particular H&M's Muslin Duvet Cover Set that, as of writing, has amassed more than 600 positive reviews online.

Why? Because muslin is a lightweight cotton fabric with an open weave that allows for good air circulation. Air circulation helps our body regulate its temperature and stay cool during heat waves or warm summer nights. That means muslin bedding is a great way to stay cool in bed when the mercury rises.

'I got these to use as a blanket for my kids rather than using it as a duvet cover,' explains one 5-star reviewer. 'It works really well... it's super light in the hot nights when a duvet has been too much, and it will be cosy as an extra layer when it gets cold.'

'This beautiful bedding is really soft to sleep in,' says another happy owner. 'Breathable, cool and yet cosy at the same time.'

And breathability isn't the only thing muslin bedding has going for it. Beyond its soft feel, it's also very easy to care for because its crinkled texture needs no ironing, something I'm not alone in appreciating!

'I love the H&M muslin bedding sets!' one reviewer shares. 'They are sooo soft and easy to wash and require no ironing.' 'Washed well and doesn’t need ironing,' says another, 'a huge plus as far as I’m concerned... Will buy again.'

In fact, shoppers are so impressed with this bedding, they're stocking up on multiple sets. 'I already have this in a different colour in king size,' says one reviewer, 'and I am obsessed'.

'Bought for my daughter's room, but it’s so soft that I now want it for our bedroom too!' says another.

Little wonder then that it isn't just H&M offering muslin bedding this season. The brand's collection has a host of positive reviews, but more affordable muslin options are also flooding the market as summer temperatures rise.

If you're wondering where to buy bedding for your bed, or where to buy children's bedding this season, these are three of my top alternatives if you want to add muslin layering to your sleep setup.
