Editorial Review for French Quarter Linens – by Nancy Levenson

The Scene
Most people spend about a third of their lives in bed and French Quarter believes in making the most of every minute of that glorious time. It's true--spending a night on 600-thread count sheets or drying your face with an incredibly soft Egyptian cotton towel are some of life's greatest pleasures. If you've got the budget, consider the indulgent option of custom-made linens. Choose your fabric and dimensions and French Quarter will do the rest.

User Reviews for French Quarter Linens

1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

I can't figure out why this store is still in business. The staff is so rude. Do people like to be treated rude when they buy luxury linens. I don't. They are rude and they don't know what they are talking about. The one time I ordered something, because they have nothing in stock, they lied about when it was going to come. I called the vendor and they said they had it in stock so what did they do with my money? Don't shop there, I don't get it, there is so much better in town.

Pros: Beautiful linens you can't get your hands on

Cons: bad parking, rude employees, lied to me

As a purveyor and afficionado of fine linen here in the Southwest, I have to address this situation. Sheets are like shoes, no matter the quality, if they are not properly cared for and rotated - they wear out quickly. Think about it, would you expect a pair of Prada heels to last a lifetime if you wore them every single day and never conditioned them? And just as extreme elements and poor hygiene will trash a shoe quicker than you can say "splenda", the same is true for your sheets. The #1 cause of holes in sheets are unsightly, poorly groomed feet. (this is usually the husband - though I've seen a few exceptions, neither here nor there) Those scratch, nappy heels dig and abrate right through even the finest textile. Also hate to break it to you, but hairy backs / aggressive facial hair, etc. do the exact same thing. So if you want to enjoy the quality of fine linen, take time and excersise proper care please.... PS a front loader washer makes a world of difference, and ease up on the chemicals and heat!
