How to sleep when it’s hot outside

From irresistible sunrises to captivating sunsets, the days are both long and full. These are our tips on how to get the best sleep on those warmer nights.

TIP

Identify your summer sleep style

You may already have your go-to sleeping position, but in summer, everything changes. Staying cool through the night starts with knowing your sleep style, and there are four main types.

The summer sleep styles 

1. One leg out 

2. Quilt off, top sheet only

3. Quilt on no matter what

4. As cool as it gets (minimal layers only) 

If you’re a 1, 2 or 3, choose a lightweight and breathable fabric like our bestselling Eve Linen and Leo Washed Cotton collections, and don’t forget to keep the remote control for the air conditioner nearby.

If you’re a 4, you’re clearly committed to keeping things cool. Make sure the sheet you sleep on is breathable and soft. A fitted sheet that hugs your mattress and feels cool to the touch can make all the difference for an undisturbed summer snooz

TIP

Choose the right fabric

While there’s really no right or wrong when it comes to choosing the right bedding for you, some fabrics and weaves truly thrive when the temperature rises. Take our 100% French flax Eve Linen. Loved all year round for its softness and durability, it’s also known for its thermo-regulating properties and is our lightest bedding yet.

Always sleep on cotton? Try switching up your classic set for our most-loved Leo Washed Cotton collection. It’s stonewashed, so it feels super soft and looks lived-in from Day 1. It also has a smooth, cool handfeel and is made with a lightweight percale weave making it your bed’s best friend in summer (and all year round for hot sleepers).

Other ways to beat the heat in bed

Close the curtains 

Do this first thing in the morning and keep them closed throughout the hottest parts of the day. Come evening, having blocked out most of the high summer heat your sleep space will be much cooler for it. Opening peeks for glorious golden sunsets are allowed.

Sleep with a fan 

If your bedroom doesn’t already boast a ceiling fan, position a standing floor fan at the base of your bed and let the cool air lull you off to sleep.

Have a cold shower 

If ice baths aren’t your thing, try jumping in a cold shower right before bedtime. The cool water will help lower your body temperature and relax your muscles and mind. Not to mention washing away sweat, sunscreen, sand and any other telltale signs of summer that can disturb your sweet sleep.
