Bedspreads for Teenagers

Teenagers look for ways to assert their new-found independence. They design their bedroom to reflect personal interests and tastes. A bedspread sits as the centerpiece of the room, so teenagers put great importance on picking a bedspread they like. Teenage boys and girls generally go in different directions, however, in what appeals to them in color and style.
  1. Colors

    • Manufacturers of teenage bedspreads offer a variety of colors. Teenage boys tend to like darker colors, especially black, grey and navy. Girls like hot pink, lime green and burgundy. Teens increasingly choose striped and plaid colors for bedspreads when done in unique color combinations.

    Designers

    • Teenagers choose designs they also buy with clothing fashions. Tommy Hilfiger, Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein produce bedding lines to capture the teenage market.

    Sizes

    • Most teenage bedspreads come in sizes for twins, extra-long twins and double beds. Teens can find bedspreads for queen or king-sized beds if they choose a more age-neutral pattern and color.

    Girl Bedspreads

    • Teenage girls choose bedspreads rich in a variety of colors. Flower and patchwork designs attract many female buyers. Skirts and lace often compliment bedspread choices.

    Boy Bedspreads

    • Teenage boys like darker colors of black or grey, as well as stripped or camouflage designs. Boys interested in sports choose professional sports team bedspreads, such as the NFL, NHL and NBA. The center of the bedspread prominently displays the logo of the boy's favorite team.
