Fabric bed frames are becoming increasingly popular due to their softer feel and look than traditional wooden and metal frames, making them ideal for transforming bedrooms into comfortable and inviting spaces.
They also come in various colours, textures, and fabrics, including crushed velvet, velvet, teddy, and linen fabrics. So, whether you prefer warm and soft materials like velvet or rough textures like woven linen, there’s something for everyone.
The sheer variety of headboard designs is yet another factor that makes fabric bed frames so attractive. You can choose the classic tufted look with various styles available or go for something modern and chic.
This article reveals the most stylish fabric beds in 2023, listed by price (low to high). Prices start from only £319 for a king-size bed.
