Duvet Cover
Made from sheeting, the duvet cover is a decorative and protective covering for an insert—the duvet—that comes in various weights and fillings; a variety of options from down-alternative to goose, duck and Eiderdown. The duvet can be used with a flat sheet or on its own. When used without intermediary layers a duvet cover reduces the complexity of making a bed. In this case, a luxury duvet cover with decorative trim,provides a finished look. A duvet cover may also be layered over a quilt or blanket, folded at the foot of the bed or pulled all the way up, as an extra layer of warmth. A duvet cover hangs down the sides of the bed to cover the box spring; it is never tucked in.
While these sheets may seem ideal, their stiffness is sometimes a downfall. This does lighten up with time and washes, but they never quite reach cotton’s dreamy softness.
There are several key factors to consider when choosing great quality sheets, such as material, thread count, and weave. With so many options out there, it can be difficult to decide which type of bed sheet is best for you. Silk and flannel sheets are two popular options, and if you're looking for king sheets, it's important to know how to choose the quality that best suits your needs.
