Lightweight and soft, created in a beautifully crisp cool percale weave, our 200 thread count Egyptian Cotton blend bed linen retains the defining smooth, fine feel of certified long staple Egyptian cotton but without the weight of a higher thread count (this range weighs 110gsm — nearly half what our sateen finish 1000 Count Egyptian Cotton Sheets do). With all the benefits of 100% natural cotton, this is an ideal all-year round choice, cool in summer yet warm in winter and comes in a range of desirable plain colours. Affordable luxury with the feel of fabulous Egyptian cotton!
An always-elegant finishing touch for any bed, the platform valance (also known as a base valance) is a decorative ‘skirt’ that drapes over and covers your divan bed base, or bed frame. Perfect for decorating a plain base, or concealing a multitude of storage sins hidden under the bed! A platform valance leaves you free to cover your mattress in whatever fitted sheet you prefer. It’s a particularly ideal option for deeper mattresses.
The Egyptian Cotton 200 Count Platform Valance comes in a range of colours and sizes, and features stylish box pleats. It’s designed with an extra seam to hug your bed base, giving you a perfect fit and corner pleat. The valance drop (the part covering the sides of the bed base/frame) is 41cm (16'') from the edge of your bed.
Machine washable at 40°C. Do not bleach. Do not dry clean. Tumble dry or drip dry. Use a warm iron. Wash colours separately. Wash before use.

What our customers say
The bedding is generally appreciated for its good quality cotton and proper fit, meeting expectations for comfort and appearance. Many find the fabric soft and suitable for everyday use, with colour accuracy maintained after washing. However, some customers note that lower thread counts, such as 200, can feel less substantial and somewhat flimsy compared to higher counts, which may affect durability and overall satisfaction. While the majority are pleased with the product’s performance, this recurring observation about thread count and fabric weight suggests that those seeking a more robust feel might consider opting for higher specifications. Overall, the bedding offers a reliable balance of comfort and quality, with thread count playing a key role in user experience.

I have bought from Belledorm several times and for the first time I am not thrilled with the quality of the bedding. It is my fault as I ordered 200 thread count and it is flimsy

We are sorry to hear that you're not happy with the purchase of your Egyptian Cotton 200 Thread count Platform Valance. For something more 'substantial' we recommend going with a higher thread count.
