Perhaps it's down to the changing seasons, but I've been desperate to inject a bit of cozy nostalgia into my home. It's only right that I start with my bedroom – the ultimate site of hibernation – and so naturally I've resumed my yearly search for the best bed sheets. It wasn't long before I ended up on the Pottery Barn site, and I'm swooning over the Brandon Maxwell Groveland Toile reversible duvet cover.
Toile decor, of course, is oh-so nostalgic, bringing to mind the charming retro look that's made country grandmother-inspired tableware so popular lately. And fahion designer, Brandon Maxwell's collaboration with Pottery Barn is almost entirely dedicated to this elegant pattern, and I have a feeling that it's about to sweep the internet.
With a sophisticated design that rivals some of the best luxury bedding on the market, this toile duvet feels like an heirloom print and has a uniquely modern twist, thanks to the taupe stripes on the reverse.
Crafted from a cotton-lyocell blend, Pottery Barn's Groveland Toile reversible duvet cover brings a luxe feel to this vintage aesthetic. It takes inspiration from classic toile prints, depicting wild stallions, rolling pastures, and wind-swept trees.
While the blue and white color palette is a nod to traditional designs, the duvet cover also caters to a much more contemporary style. Flip it over and the toile is replaced by a wide stripe print in a blend of taupe and white. This reminded me why Pottery Barn is among interior designers' favorite bedding options.

Toile is associated with 18th-century French depictions of pastoral scenes and farmland motifs – usually in shades of blue and green – but Maxwell introduced a delightfully personal angle to his Pottery Barn pieces.
'I've reimagined a classic toile with scenes from my childhood spent in the Texas countryside,' he says. 'This collection is designed to help you fill your home with love and warmth.'
Alongside bed sheets and cushions, you'll spot everything from Texas Toile dinnerware to a Groveland Toile tablecloth and Groveland Toile napkins in the collection.
The Groveland Toile reversible duvet cover is available in both a full/queen and a king/California king size, and you can pick up the matching Groveland Toile reversible shams separately. Finish the look with the Groveland Toile sheet set (I love the forest green color) and the bold Groveland toile bolster. It might be rooted in a nostalgic look, but Pottery Barn's toile duvet is guaranteed to make your bedroom feel more like a palace.

This handsome sheet set is available in three coloways: navy, black, and scarlet. I love the detailed, rural-inspired illustrations.
I can't resist a toile print in a green hue, and this duvet cover is a steal in the Pottery Barn sale. Pair it with a cream linen throw and deep green cushions.
Swap traditional toile designs for a more uniform botanical print – these elegant motifs are edged in handsome navy piping.
