Frum white linen is generally white duvet but another color sheet. I have had hotel style linen for 8+ years. The banding is taupe, and the sheets are the same taupe.

On a side note, I don't get the super floral linen for a master. It's so feminine to be used for a man.

Do majority people have the issue of staining? During dtd or any other time.. I always thought it was the minority
I never either heard of not sleeping on white on nights out of the 7 days. Chasidish satmer

As you see all hotels have white linen, it's a clean look.

As far as issues with staining, not everyone has this issue.

Regarding lavender set I love this one it has lavender sheets. https://luxurylinenofny.com/pr.....g-set

It's beautiful, but do people really pay $450 for a set of linen? (I'm sure some do, but I wouldn't have thought it was common enough to show as a recommendation.)

Why do so many of the frum sets have so much white on them? Isn't an issue with staining and it's much better if there are colors/gray. Any recommendations for a nice comfortable set with some lavender in it and no big pieces of white?

Why do you need frum linen?

Hotels also use white so they can bleach their linen loads.

I've gotten 48" sheets on Shein. But more recently, I have newer thicker 48" mattresses (deep) and I find that full-sized sheets fit them quite nicely. I just tuck in the corners a drop.

I'm married for closer to 30 years BH and have never yet had a sheilah on linen.

I have a set of white PB that I love, and it washes beautifully with no extra effort.

Considering this trend has been around at least 2 years now, I doubt it'll go anywhere any time soon.
I often wonder about guestrooms with white linen. Why are the hosts using sheets that can be problematic?

This bugs me SO MUCH!!!!!

Easy and cheap to find. Matches loads of duvets. I have no issue with it.

You don't but your guests may....
This isn't about your personal sheets- labrioot use what you like
This is about giving OTHER people white sheets when for some people it's highly problematic, when this can easily be avoided!

And also.. Linen in Jewish stores is a crime. They can dtd at home, and not have an issue on my white linen. Otherwise they are wearing underwear and it won't have an effect on linen.
