Discover the Seersucker bedding latest trends with lightweight, breathable styles perfect for summer. Explore classic New England charm in blue and white stripes from Schweitzer Linen
There’s nothing quite like fresh seersucker bedding to welcome summer in coastal Maine. I recently refreshed our small guest bedroom with Schweitzer Linen’s elegant blue and white striped set—lightweight, timeless, and full of classic New England charm.
Paired with vintage touches like a wrought iron bed and a well-loved wooden dresser, it’s the perfect retreat, complete with cozy guest favorites like their waffle-style Fresca Luxury Bathrobe and beautifully scented Le Vainqueur Soap by Rancé.
What is Seersucker? The Timeless Coastal Fabric Making a Comeback in Bedding
Seersucker is a lightweight, puckered cotton fabric known for its breezy texture and classic striped patterns—often in soft blues and whites.
Originally derived from the Persian word “shir o shekar,” meaning milk and sugar, seersucker was introduced to the Western textile world for its breathable weave and summery appeal. Its signature puckering keeps the fabric slightly lifted off the skin, making it ideal for hot, humid climates.
Over time, it’s become synonymous with coastal style and traditional New England decor—appearing in everything from summer suits to bedroom linens.
In bedding, seersucker adds a relaxed elegance that feels both crisp and lived-in, perfect for seaside homes and guest retreats. As the latest trend in summer interiors, this timeless textile is being rediscovered for its charm, durability, and naturally cooling qualities, making it a perfect pick for classic yet updated home decor.

What is a Seersucker Bedding Set?
Seersucker bedding is the latest trend in coastal bedding, known for its lightweight, breathable texture and signature puckered fabric.
The classic blue and white striped design adds a timeless, nautical charm that perfectly fits beachside or New England-inspired homes.
This effortless, easy-care bedding is ideal for summer months, combining comfort with relaxed coastal elegance.
What is Seersucker Bedding by Schweitzer Linen?
When it comes to luxury linens, Schweitzer Linen has been Manhattan’s go-to for over 50 years—and for good reason. Their attention to quality is unmatched, and one of the things I love most is that they can fully customize their pieces to match your exact style, whether it’s for your master bedroom, guest room, or even your dining table. They make it easy to bring your design vision to life with the finest fabrics that are both beautiful and easy to care for.
Their seersucker bedding, called Portland, is a fresh blend of cotton and polycotton—lightweight, breathable, and perfect for the warmer months. The duvet covers, blanket covers, and shams come in crisp white with soft blue stripes, each finished with a classic white border that’s imported from Italy (so dreamy, right?).
I styled ours in our coastal Maine guest room and added a vintage white and blue quilt I found tucked away in an old attic trunk—because mixing new with vintage is always a win in my book.

At the bottom of the bed, I added a vintage blue quilt that I found in an attic trunk—marrying up the new seersucker bedding with touches of vintage charm.
Suds & Stripes: The Dreamy Italian Soap Your Guest Bedroom Needs
To go along with all that cozy Schweitzer Linen seersucker goodness, I couldn’t resist adding a few of my favorite soaps by Rancé. These luxurious little bars are hand-pressed, all-natural, and made in Italy—with a recipe that’s been around for over 200 years!
Not only do they smell absolutely divine, but they’re also gentle enough to refresh even the most delicate skin. I love tucking them into dresser drawers and closets, too—they give the whole room a soft, welcoming scent that makes guests feel right at home.
Trust me, it’s the kind of small detail that always gets noticed (and complimented!).

Fresca Luxury Bath Robe: A Thoughtful Coastal Touch for Guest Room Comfort
One of my favorite things to add to a guest bedroom is a cozy bathrobe—because let’s be honest, guests rarely think to pack one! The Fresca Luxury Bathrobe by Schweitzer Linen is a dream: unisex, oversized, and trimmed with classic three-stripe blue piping that pairs perfectly with the seersucker bedding. I hung ours right on the closet door, and I love how it ties in with all the vintage charm in the room.
From the seersucker bedding to the old braided rug my mother made years ago, every corner of this little coastal guest room holds a story.
I tucked some fresh tulips into a thrifted teapot on the nightstand, and in the corner sits a basket of my dad’s old tennis rackets—a collection he played with until the age of 86.
These sweet vintage touches, mixed with timeless linens and thoughtful details like a robe, make the space feel personal, cozy, and oh-so-welcoming.
I love how Schweitzer Linen’s seersucker bedding matches beautifully with the vintage touches of the home.
