White was reserved for only the wealthy since they were the only ones who could afford to have white clothes in excellent condition.

It was until the late 80’s when hoteliers made use of color bed sheets and towels, but it was in the ’90s when several Hotel Chains were working on developing a new concept focusing on enhancing the Bed Experience at hotels. After several studies and customer surveys, they found out that using white colors was giving the luxury and comfortable feel as well.

At that time, Westin Hotels & Resort chain was pioneered, a completely white bed. Its designers did tests to verify that the clean and fresh feeling of the color white also gave a feeling of luxury, even making guests think that the room had been recently renovated. He had such an impact that other hotels copied his idea to this day.

Another practical aspect is that white is also applied to and bathrobes, so cleaning staff can easily collect all the clothes without having to separate them by color, and they go all together in the washing machine, there is no need to worry about fading and color changes.

And in case of renovation and change of accessories, the white sheets combine with everything, they do not go out of style and are much easier to clean.
