Inside Olivia Culpo’s Chic Neutral Bedroom – Why Design Experts Say Calm Tones Can Feel Luxurious, Layered, and Anything but Dull
Olivia uses rich textures and materials in her bedroom to make the enduringly popular neutral palette feel just as fresh as ever


For many of us, the bedroom is the oasis of the home; a place to relax, unwind, and most of all, rest. It makes sense, then, that a neutral palette remains a mainstay for many of us. And while some may want to stray away from it because of its popularity, its versatility means that there are endless ways to make a neutral space feel one-of-a-kind.
Take Olivia Culpo's bedroom, for example. The model shared a glimpse of her room on her Instagram page, and we love the layered neutral look she has going on.
From her creamy linen bedding to her white panelled walls and pleated curtains, the room is a textural wonderland, and is giving us plenty of new neutral bedroom ideas.

These sheets are made from eucalyptus fibers, one of the most sustainable fabrics in the industry. By nature, this material is soft, and moisture-wicking for a cool sleep. They are also so timeless, chic, and simple.
With its delicate embroidery and linen fabrication, the beautiful pillow can soften up a space and add a touch of elegance to your fall pillow arrangement. However, we'd say it looks just as good in winter and long beyond.
This design is understated but never boring: the stonewash effect of the slightly raised threads creates tonal highs and lows.
According to design experts, one of the best ways to make a neutral bedroom feel interesting is to experiment with headboards and bed frames.
'Oversized headboards remain a staple, and we overwhelmingly find customers opt for neutral fabrics,” says Claire Schifano, global marketing director at Vispring. “They create a sense of quiet luxury and evolve easily with new colour schemes over time.'
Olivia has taken on the trendy four-poster frame, which is striking in black, contrasting the light, airy bedroom.
Materials are also critical in making a neutral space visually engaging. Natural materials give a bedroom a lived-in, welcoming feel, as well as contributing to a relaxing atmosphere.

'From natural linens to rich weaves, a well-chosen neutral fabric brings both calm and texture to a bedroom,' Claire continues. 'It’s the ultimate backdrop for layering – whether with tonal cushions or bolder seasonal accessories.'
To get Olivia's look, start with a foundation of layered, soft bedding in varied neutrals, and accessorize around it with wood furniture, textured rugs, and soft lighting.
