Duvet Covers NZ - Buying Guide

Here is our guide to buying a duvet cover. When choosing a duvet cover, it’s important to consider the duvet cover size, the colour, whether you prefer a patterned or plain duvet cover and the type of fabric it’s made from. Read on for our top tips.

Duvet cover size – it’s worth considering buying a duvet cover in the next size up from your bed size. This is a really good idea if you have a deeper mattress as a larger duvet cover size will give you more coverage and look more luxurious. A duvet cover double is perfect for a single or king single bed and king duvet covers are a good size for a queen bed. Duvet covers are available in single, king single, double, queen, king, super king and Californian king.

Duvet cover colour – this comes down to personal preference. You can’t go wrong with simple classic white but if you prefer a bolder approach try deeper or brighter colours to suit your taste and the seasons. Cooler tones such as blues and greens are perfect for summer or warmer tones of biscotti and natural are cosy for winter. Duvet covers are available in a wide range of colours to complement all interior styles.

Duvet cover pattern or plain – plain duvet covers are just one colour and are lovely for a simple and serene look. You can add interest to a plain duvet cover with patterned pillowcases or decorative cushions and throws. Patterned duvet covers come in a range of designs from classic stripes and pretty florals to beautiful botanical and tropical, leafy designs.

Duvet cover fabric – our duvet covers are made from pure cotton, certified organic cotton, cotton sateen and pure linen. Each fabric has a different feel so it’s important to decide which fabric suits you. Pure cotton and cotton percale feel fresh and crisp. Organic cotton feels soft and comfortable. Cotton sateen feels smooth and sumptuous. Pure linen feels soft, relaxed and rumpled.

Duvet Covers - FAQs

Q: What is the difference between duvet, duvet cover & comforter?

A: A duvet and duvet cover are the same thing. A duvet or duvet cover is made from two pieces of fabric sewn together along three sides with one side, usually the end, left open so you’re able to place your duvet inner inside the cover. Most duvet covers will have a button closure at the open end to prevent your duvet inner from sliding out of the cover. A comforter is another name for a quilt. Comforters are usually made from two pieces of fabric with a cotton filling or polyester batting in-between. These three layers are stitched together along all four sides with further quilting stitching in a pattern across the comforter to hold the fill in place.

Q: What sizes is a Duvet cover available in?

A: Duvet covers come in a range of sizes to suit all bed sizes. From small to largest size, duvet covers are available in single, king single, double, queen, king, super king and Californian king.

Q: How to pick the right duvet cover?

A: Firstly, you’ll need to pick the right size duvet cover to fit your bed. You might like to choose a duvet cover that is one size larger than your bed to give more coverage. This is a more luxurious look but you will need to buy a larger duvet inner to match.

Secondly, there are a range of fabrics and materials to choose from. Cotton duvet covers feel crisp and fresh to sleep in and look smart. Linen duvet covers are perfect for a more casual, relaxed look and become softer the more you launder them.

Lastly, pick a duvet cover in a pattern or plain colour to suit your interior décor and the season. From crisp plain white and classic stripes in blue, charcoal grey and pink to pretty florals and leafy botanical designs, there are plenty of options for making your bed look beautiful.

Duvet Covers NZ - Caring Tips

Our duvet covers are made from beautiful natural fabrics which makes them easy to care for. We recommend washing all our duvet covers, whether they are made from cotton, organic cotton or linen in a cold machine wash using a gentle laundry detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners and do not use bleach. Turn delicate items inside out for laundering to help protect any embroidery detail. Line dry in the shade where possible as too much sunlight will ‘cook’ your bed linen making it difficult to iron and will fade coloured prints. Warm iron.
