WHAT ARE THESE FRETTE SHEETS MADE OF?
Fortunately for me, I have the pleasure of testing two sheet sets from Frette: the Classic Hotel Sheet Set, and the Doppio Ajour Sheet Set. The Classic Hotel set is percale woven, the Doppio Ajour set is sateen woven, and both are made in Italy.

Both sheet sets are made from extra-long staple cotton, which serves to boost the durability and softness of the fabric. However, because of their different weave styles, each set offers a different look and feel. The differences between percale and sateen vary from brand to brand, but when it comes to this Frette bedding, I found each sheet set to have its own distinct personality.

With the percale sheet set, the name really says it all. Frette’s Classic Hotel sheet set really offers that crisp, hotel-bed feel — and the extra-long staple cotton adds a luxurious, high-end quality to it as well. The Classic Hotel sheet set was crafted to be light, breathable, and very soft to the touch.

0.22 -> [background music]
1.22 -> Sarah: Hey, guys, it's Sarah from Sleepopolis.
2.34 -> Today, we'll be taking a look at two sheet sets from Frette.
6.68 -> For those of you who are already familiar with Frette sheets, you're probably feeling
10.22 -> pretty excited right about now.
11.93 -> For those of you who are unfamiliar, Frette is a luxury home furnishing brand that started
17.57 -> in Italy way back in 1860.
20.57 -> Its sheets can be found in some of the most prestigious hotels in the world and even in
24.929 -> St. Peter's Basilica.
26.63 -> Now, here they are in Sleepopolis headquarters.
28.929 -> I don't know about you, but I'm pretty excited to see what they're all about.
32.06 -> All right, let's get started.
34.02 -> [background music]
35.75 -> Sarah: To get an idea of what each sheet set has to offer, I'm going to do a little mix
44.28 -> and matching.
45.28 -> I'm going to use the percale woven Classic Hotel Sheet Set for the fitted sheet.
52.81 -> I'm going to use the Doppio Ajour Sheet Set, which is the sateen woven sheet set for the
60.01 -> top sheet.
61.01 -> Then I'm going to do one of each pillowcase so we can really see what they're all about.
65.97 -> I love this double embroidered border.
71.35 -> It's pretty.
74.38 -> Wow, wow, wow.
78.94 -> That's a luxurious pillowcase.
80.94 -> [background music]
83.729 -> Sarah: Ooh.
86.51 -> Ooh, yes.
89.28 -> These are nice.
93.45 -> [background music]
96.229 -> Sarah: OK, as you can see, I have the pleasure of testing two sheet sets from Frette.
103.82 -> I've got the Doppio Ajour set, which is the grey sateen woven set.
108.73 -> Then I've got the hotel classic set, which is percale woven.
113.06 -> I've got that in white.
115.06 -> Starting with my personal favorite, which is the Doppio Ajour.
118.38 -> First of all, it's called Doppio Ajour because doppio means double in Italian.
123.2 -> As you can see -- I'll show you here -- both the top of the top sheet and the pillowcases
131.29 -> feature this double open hemstitch which is a signature for Frette.
137.35 -> The thread count, the folks from Frette say, is anywhere from 300 to 500.
143.26 -> Remember, thread count is not the deciding factor when it comes to sheet quality.
147.959 -> It's more about, among other things, the length of the fibers.
153.04 -> Both of these sheet sets are made from extra-long staple pure cotton.
159.7 -> That's leaving them feeling super soft.
162.3 -> It's also going to boost their durability as well.
165.12 -> The sateen set I've got here in Cliff Grey, there are other colors available, right away,
171.18 -> it's feeling so silky smooth to the touch.
174.93 -> Sateen woven sheets do tend to be silkier in feel.
178.61 -> These are definitely no exception.
179.87 -> These really have a very luxuriously buttery-smooth hand feel, which I'm loving.
186.319 -> Also, it does have this lustrous sheen, which is adding to the luxury aesthetic of it.
194.349 -> It's making you feel like you're in your own five-star hotel bed.
198.05 -> I'm loving that.
201.599 -> Each set, both the percale woven and the sateen woven set, comes with one fitted sheet, one
207.991 -> top sheet, and two pillowcases.
209.84 -> I'm going to show you what the percale woven set looks like in just a second.
214.27 -> The fitted sheet for the sateen woven set is able to fit mattresses up to 15 inches
220.38 -> deep.
221.38 -> I'm on a mattress right now that's about 15 inches deep.
224.03 -> As you can see, it's able to fit taller, more luxurious mattresses.
230.239 -> The percale set is also made from extra-long staple pure cotton.
234.599 -> Of course, it's feeling super soft and also very durable.
239.09 -> What I'm loving, and as soon as I took it out of the package, I noticed how super crisp
244.379 -> they feel.
245.569 -> As we know, percale woven sheets do tend to offer that crisp, cool hand feel.
250.94 -> These are exceptionally crisp.
252.909 -> They're blending this perfect balance between crispness and softness.
258.41 -> Like I said, it's really giving me these luxury hotel vibes that I'm loving.
263.08 -> The pillowcase has a little bit of a different look in the percale set.
266.259 -> It opens on the end and has this double embroidered border here and also has the company's logo
273.49 -> stitched in here.
275.5 -> Like I said, feeling very crisp, very cool, light, and breathable.
280.53 -> The sateen set comes with a pillowcase that might even be one of my favorite parts about
286.17 -> the set.
287.17 -> It's super unique.
288.17 -> It has this double open hemstitch here, which, like I said, is signature for the brand.
292.45 -> Then it has a very discrete opening in the back on the side.
299.5 -> You can't see it.
300.59 -> It's a little bit hidden, took me a second to figure out where it was.
303.66 -> I just think this is a really charming aesthetic.
306.26 -> Now, back to the percale set.
308.81 -> The thread count is anywhere between 200 and 240, feeling super light and breathable.
316.07 -> My first impressions of each set is that they are feeling very luxurious, which is what
322.03 -> I was expecting, but really exceeding my expectations.
325.36 -> They're both so soft.
328.33 -> The sateen in this silky, lustrous way.
331.94 -> The percale in this crisp, luxury hotel way.
336.31 -> I'm excited to get in and roll around in it.
339.44 -> [background music]
341.1 -> Sarah: Of course, the feel of each sheet set is going to be different because of their
347.1 -> different weave styles.
349.1 -> Starting with the percale, which I'm using for the fitted sheet, I can tell that this
353.08 -> extra-long staple cotton is making...I can feel that they're very durable.
358.539 -> I've been testing sheets long enough to, just by feeling them, be able to tell if they're
362.711 -> going to last you for a good long while.
364.52 -> These do feel as durable as they feel soft.
367.75 -> They do feel so soft.
370.38 -> I can't stop rubbing my hands all over the material.
372.96 -> You might even be able to hear that they're bringing this real hotel style crispness to
379.68 -> it, which I'm loving.
381.47 -> This percale really does make you feel like you're in your own luxury hotel room, which
386.74 -> I'm loving.
387.74 -> The sateen set is going to be more of the silky-smooth feel.
394.56 -> Both of them are soft but in different ways.
397.38 -> The percale is lighter.
399.27 -> It's going to be more breathable, probably more cooling.
402.449 -> The sateen lies heavier on the body.
405.66 -> Sateen woven sheets do tend to be a bit thicker and lie heavier on the body.
409.69 -> I'd say these are no exception.
412.11 -> Because of that, they're offering this elegant, body-hugging drape that many people consider
419.66 -> to be a basis of appeal for sateen sheets, myself included.
423.3 -> It silhouettes your shape in this pretty and elegant way, which I really like.
428.86 -> As I said, the fitted sheet is able to accommodate mattresses up to 15 inches deep.
434.199 -> However, because this mattress is almost 15 inches and I've got, still, a little bit of
440.2 -> room to spare, I think that the fitted sheet could probably stretch to fit mattresses even
445.52 -> deeper than that.
446.83 -> Those of you with taller, luxuriously deep mattresses, you might like to know that you'll
452.37 -> probably be compatible with either of these sets.
456.25 -> I will say that both sets are a little wrinkly.
461.76 -> That's definitely to be expected from percale.
464.38 -> Percale, across the board, tends to be a little more prone to wrinkles.
468.669 -> The sateen is a little bit less wrinkly, but the wrinkles are certainly not detracting
474.069 -> from the comfort.
475.069 -> I have to say I'm just loving rolling around in these sheets.
479.66 -> They offer this luxuriously soft feel.
484.12 -> Like I said, it's making me feel like I'm in my own five-star hotel bedroom.
488.78 -> There's a lot that I'm loving about both of these sheet sets.
492.97 -> First and foremost, they both just feel so luxuriously soft and also very durable.
500.41 -> The extra-long staple cotton, like I said, is going to contribute to this extra softness,
506.87 -> better durability.
508.79 -> I'm loving the way they feel on my skin, which, at the end of the day, is the most important
512.769 -> factor for me.
514.139 -> Another thing I'm loving is their look.
516.459 -> I love the double embroidered border on the percale set.
521.189 -> I do have the grey and white combination here, but there are others available.
526.48 -> My favorite, because I am preferential to a sateen weave, is how beautifully lustrous
532.989 -> and shiny the sateen woven set is.
536.829 -> It already feels so silky smooth, but it also looks silky smooth.
542 -> I find it to be very inviting.
544.779 -> Same thing with the pillowcase.
546.79 -> This pillowcase is this unique design.
550.79 -> I love the open hemstitch here.
555.499 -> They're very pretty.
557.149 -> Speaking of styles, I do have the Cliff Grey and the white here, but there are other options
563.47 -> available.
564.47 -> If you're into the brand or if you're into the sheets themselves, but you're not feeling
569.739 -> the colors that I have here, you'll be glad to know that there are others available.
574.489 -> A couple things to note about both of these sheet sets.
578.589 -> While they do look and feel very luxurious, they also come with a luxury price tag.
586.279 -> The Doppio Ajour sateen woven set is about $1,100 for a queen size set.
592.319 -> The percale is about $450 for a queen size set.
596.329 -> For some of you, myself included, might be a little bit out of your budget.
601.079 -> Another thing is, as far as wash care is concerned, it's not as easy as throwing them in the washer
606.569 -> or dryer.
609.23 -> Because they're not exactly inexpensive sheets, you're going to want to care for them perfectly
613.85 -> so they last you as long as possible.
615.67 -> The folks at Frette recommend that you use a mild biodegradable detergent on a cold wash
623.67 -> cycle.
624.67 -> Then, tumble dry on low heat until they're almost done drying.
629.92 -> Then pull them out immediately to let them line dry until they're dry completely.
636.16 -> It's not the most complicated, but it's still a little bit more maintenance than the average
641.769 -> sheet set.
644.1 -> While many bedding brands offer a trial period for their sheets where you can order the sheets,
650.69 -> try them out for a month or more, see how they blend with your lifestyle, then if you
654.78 -> don't like them, you can have them easily refunded or exchanged, Frette does not offer
659.36 -> any such trial period.
661.829 -> They do offer a 30-day return policy.
664.749 -> However, the sheets must be unwashed and unused.
669.029 -> Like I said, it's not exactly a trial period.
671.399 -> I had a great time testing both the Doppio Ajour and the Hotel Classic sheet sets.
678.25 -> For every last detail on both of these sheet sets, be sure to check out my full written
682.889 -> review, which you can find by Googling Sleepopolis Frette Sheets.
