Zara Home or English Home: Bed Linen Sizes and Fit

The mistake buyers make most is the linen size, not the brand. Measure the bed and mattress length, width and height in centimeters and read the sheet, cover and pillow sizes in centimeters on the product card rather than general names like double or king, since the naming differs between stores. Then compare the fabric and how many washes it takes before choosing between Zara Home and English Home.

How to measure a bed for linen

Measure mattress length, width and height in centimeters, add the mattress height twice to the width of a fitted sheet, and compare the numbers with the product card sizes rather than the double or king label alone.

How to compare linen fabric

Read the cotton type or blend, the fabric weight and the washing instructions on the card, and note that some fabrics shrink after the first wash, so choose a size that allows for it.

What is specific to buying for the UAE

In the UAE some apartments are compact so choose a light linen that suits constant air conditioning, and make sure the building name and apartment number are in the address, and in Dubai the Makani number speeds up delivery.

How orders ship and arrive

After consolidation in Türkiye the order flies to Dubai or Abu Dhabi with home delivery, and linen is folded in a vacuum bag so the counted volume drops.

Common questions

Does king mean the same size in every store?

No, rely on the centimeters written on the card.

Does cotton shrink?

It may shrink a little after washing, so read the care label.

Can I combine both stores in one parcel?

Yes, linen folds small, especially in a vacuum bag.
