Let's start with an analogy. A duvet cover is to a duvet as a pillowcase is to a pillow.
A duvet cover is what slips over your duvet, serving as a protective layer and the most visible part of your bedding.
People opt for duvet covers due to their popularity, though there are many factors to consider prior to making a purchase.
Duvet covers are machine washable, generally inexpensive, comfortable, and easy to switch out if you get bored of one style.
some people like to style their duvet covers with a quilt or blanket,
which can really bring together a room’s color palette and keep you warm.
Whether it’s a new season or you simply need some new scenery,
it’s easier (and cheaper) to change a duvet cover than the entire duvet or comforter.
Microfiber Polyester FabricMicrofiber polyester is an inexpensive and highly durable alternative to cotton. It is made up of superfine thread that is densely woven to give a soft and smooth fabric. | Fade and Wrinkle ResistantPolyester and Cotton-Poly blend christmas bedding are best for people who want a resistant fabric that does not wrinkle or fade over time. which ensures that your bedroom always appears well-styled. | How to Put on a Duvet Cover SetZippered covers feature a zipper at the open end that encloses the duvet inside the cover. Often, the cover features a short flap that folds over to hide the zipper for a cleaner look. The drawback to zippered covers is that they can occasionally catch and tear your duvet, but you can minimize any damage by closing zippers slowly. |
Choosing the right sized christmas duvet cover set is more than just matching the dimensions to your duvet filler.
A cover that is too big for the duvet can cause the filler to shift and bunch during the night resulting in uneven coverage and tangling.
However, a cover that is too small gives the bed a lumpy appearance.
Here are 4 standard duvet cover set sizes: as the size chart
The right size cover depends on whether you prefer a snugger fit for a plusher looking duvet or a standard fit for a smoother bedscape.
Most designers suggest purchasing a duvet cover that is around 2"" shorter than your duvet filler on all sides to create a fuller appearance.
However, if you find that your duvet bunches to one side or looks lumpy, a cover that fits the exact dimensions of your duvet can give you a cleaner look.
Size is all about personal preference.
Most people in highly populated urban areas like NYC or San Francisco don’t have the space for a California King.
Queen-sized beds are the most popular choice,
but twins work for children and single adults with limited space.
If your christmas duvet cover set can be washed at home,
you'll most likely wash it using cold water
and the gentle cycle on low heat (you can also line dry it).
We also recommend shaking out any duvet cover once dried.
This will return it to its original “fluffy” form.
