Abstract

Variable-look bedding set items, such as sheets, blankets, pillowcases, duvet covers and the like that are invertible into multiple right faces which each bear different appearances so that a variety of aesthetic design combinations can be achieved using the same set of bedding items without substituting any item within the set for another item that is structurally similar, but aesthetically different.

Claims (19)

1 . A bedding set comprising: a first invertible cover for enveloping a first article, wherein this first invertible cover is formed by a first side that, itself, has inner and outer surfaces and an opposing second side that, itself, has inner and outer surfaces, wherein the first side inner, first side outer, second side inner, and second side outer surfaces are each designed substantially different from each other; a second invertible cover for enveloping a second article, wherein this second invertible cover is formed by a first side that, itself, has inner and outer surfaces and an opposing second side that, itself, has inner and outer surfaces, and wherein the first side inner, first side outer, second side inner, and second side outer surfaces of this second invertible cover are each designed substantially different from each other; and a sheet having a first side and an opposing second side, wherein the first and second sides of the sheet are designed substantially different from each other.

2 . The bedding set of claim 1 , wherein at least one of said invertible covers is adapted to envelop a comforter.

3 . The bedding set of claim 1 , wherein at least one of said invertible covers is adapted to envelop a pillow.

4 . The bedding set of claim 1 , wherein the substantial differences in the respective designs of the first side inner, first side outer, second side inner, and second side outer surfaces of at least one of said invertible covers are coloration differences.

5 . The bedding set of claim 1 , wherein the substantial differences in the respective designs of the first side inner, first side outer, second side inner, and second side outer surfaces of at least one of said invertible covers are graphic design differences.

6 . The bedding set of claim 1 , wherein the substantial differences in the respective designs of the first and second sides of said sheet are coloration differences.

7 . The bedding set of claim 1 , wherein the substantial differences in the respective designs of the first and second sides of said sheet are graphic design differences.

8 . The bedding set of claim 1 , further comprising trim disposed along meeting lines of the first and second sides of at least one of said invertible covers.

9 . The bedding set of claim 1 , further comprising trim disposed along meeting lines of the first and second sides of said sheet.

10 . The bedding set of claim 1 , wherein the first and second sides of at least one of said invertible covers are each formed of discrete layers of fabric.

11 . The bedding set of claim 1 , wherein the first and second sides of said sheet are each formed of discrete layers of fabric.

12 . The bedding set of claim 1 , wherein said sheet is a comforter.

13 . A bedding set comprising: a first invertible cover for enveloping a first article, wherein this first invertible cover is formed by a first side that, itself, has inner and outer surfaces and an opposing second side that, itself, has inner and outer surfaces, wherein the first side inner, first side outer, second side inner, and second side outer surfaces are each designed substantially different from each other; and a second invertible cover for enveloping a second article, wherein this second invertible cover is formed by a first side that, itself, has inner and outer surfaces and an opposing second side that, itself, has inner and outer surfaces, and wherein the first side inner, first side outer, second side inner, and second side outer surfaces of this second invertible cover are each designed substantially different from each other.

14 . The bedding set of claim 13 , wherein at least one of said invertible covers is adapted to envelop a comforter.

15 . The bedding set of claim 13 , wherein at least one of said invertible covers is adapted to envelop a pillow.

16 . The bedding set of claim 13 , wherein the substantial differences in the respective designs of the first side inner, first side outer, second side inner, and second side outer surfaces of at least one of said invertible covers are coloration differences.

17 . The bedding set of claim 13 , wherein the substantial differences in the respective designs of the first side inner, first side outer, second side inner, and second side outer surfaces of at least one of said invertible covers are graphic design differences.

18 . The bedding set of claim 13 , further comprising trim disposed along meeting lines of the first and second sides of at least one of said invertible covers.

19 . The bedding set of claim 13 , wherein the first and second sides of at least one of said invertible covers are each formed of discrete layers of fabric.
