While choosing your pillow size may seem easy, it’s important to consider all your options so you can be sure you are investing in the perfect size depending on your needs. From sleeping to decorative, your pillow can be the way to improve your style or sleep quality. Take a look at the various pillow sizes and find which one works best for you. 

Standard

Measuring 20” x 26”, standard pillows are the most versatile and commonly used. They are great for sleeping or layering behind decorative pillows. This size is largely used among twin, full and queen beds for a proportioned size to the bed. 

Queen

Measuring 20” x 30”, queen pillows are slightly longer than standard pillows for a bit extra length, making them ideal for active sleepers who move around at night. They are usually used among queen and king beds. If you use a queen bed and prefer a pillow that provides more length than your typical standard pillow, a queen pillow works great. They are also a good alternative if you use a king bed but feel that king pillows are a bit too large 

King

Measuring 20” x 36”, king pillows are perfect for sprawling out, and they can double as backrests for sitting up in bed. Their oversized design is also great for filling the width of larger beds. Commonly used among king, california king and any larger beds, these pillows provide an adequate amount of space for you to lay your head and toss and turn. 

Euro

Measuring 26” x 26”, euro pillows are square pillows that are typically used for styling and support. They’re great as a backdrop for standard or queen pillows and can also be used as a cushion for reading or lounging. Euro pillows are often dressed in decorative shams to add a layer of sophistication. You can also use them in your sofa or favorite lounge chair for the perfect decorative touch. 

Body

Our body pillows measure 15” x 44” for an oversized lumbar look that completes your bed. Pair and stack with euro pillows for the perfect decorative setup that will take your bed to the next level. Body pillows are also great for additional back or hip support during sleep as their unique size helps to use in difficult places.
