Let's all be dreamers isn't just a tagline for us at QE Home; it’s an invitation to dream big and celebrate our unique capacities to empower, create, and innovate. So for the month of March, and in recognition of International Women's Day, we’re shining a spotlight on the dreamy contributions of our female designers and stylists — those who shape our slumber by leading the way in comfort and style.

Tanya and Genevieve getting creative in the QE Home Design lab!

From our resident Senior Design rockstar and helmswoman of Home Republic, Genevieve, to our Lead Stylist Heike and Product Designer Tanya, join us as we explore our woman-designed collections for the season, and showcase the powerful female visionaries of QE Home who dare to dream.

Heike, our resident Styling Guru!

Spring Style No. 1 — Dash Bedding Collection

If you’re looking for something ultra chic and contemporary this season, Genevieve’s got you covered with the Dash Duvet Cover. This effortlessly stylish design, made with cozy yarn-dyed cotton jacquard fabric, features relaxed, textured horizontal lines in alternating soft whites and light greys, accented with raised deep blue stitches. 

As if that wasn't enough to get you sprung, Dash’s coordinating deep charcoal grey reverse is crafted from oh so soft, sustainable, and breathable organic cotton to boot. Psst! You can learn more about Dash in our new YouTube video featuring Genevieve herself!

Heike’s Styling Tip: Use your sheeting choices to set the mood by playing off the different cool tones featured in the Dash Collection. For example, you can keep things neutral with our silvery Bamboo Cotton Sheet Set with Activated Charcoal, or accent the deeper hues with our Eucalyptus Luxe Fitted Sheet in Navy.

Spring Style No. 2 — Raina Bedding Collection

Drawing inspiration from Kantha quilts — in other words, a South Asian textile tradition involving the patching together of sari fabrics via intricate pick-stitching, Tanya has designed the Raina Duvet Cover just in time for the milder weather and season of wanderlust. 

This timeless yet contemporary retreat features shifting rows of botanical and patterned designs in grey, navy, and muted blush tones, and recreates this traditional stitching technique using soft, yarn-dyed cotton jacquard.

Heike’s Styling Tip: Enhance your Raina bedspread and add plushness, richness and warmth by layering in complementary throws like our Checkered Teddy Throw in Frosted Berry.

Spring Style No. 3 — Horizons Bedding Collection

One thing to know about Genevieve is that she loves design trends like ombre and naturescapes. Luckily for us, her Spring-ready Horizons Duvet Cover offers the very best of both. Inspired by the misty mountain views of British Columbia's Sea-to-Sky Highway, this breathtaking landscape design features layers of deep teal and spruce tones all crafted on our temperature-regulating bamboo blend fabric.

For a deeper dive, check out our YouTube video on the Horizons collection featuring QE Home’s amazing Product Designer Tanya.

Heike’s Styling Tip: Add depth and function by dynamically layering in different sized cushions and pillows for more support and style. Feel free to mix and match your own — or opt for the coordinating Horizons Euro Sham and Boudoir Pillow Cover to make this process a breeze.
