A duvet cover is not just about protecting your duvet—it's the simplest way to add a touch of individuality and refresh your bedroom decor. Whether you love soft neutrals, bold prints, or cozy textures, the right cover will help you create the bedroom of your dreams.
Duvet sets protect your duvet from everyday wear and tear and stains, keeping it clean and prolonging its life. At Linen Chest, we have a collection for every aesthetic and room, from classic, crisp cotton duvet covers to luxury, timeless elegance.
How to Choose the Perfect Duvet Cover
Picking a duvet cover set is like putting the icing on the cake. There are many factors to consider when doing that, but we've cracked the code and are ready to guide you through the process. Understanding your preferences and needs is what matters the most. Here's how to decide.
Material Matters
Cotton duvet covers are soft, comfortable, and airy. This fabric is a classic for summer but still great for year-round use. Bamboo duvet covers have a lightweight and silky texture, which is suitable for hot sleepers or warm climates. Linen duvet covers also allow more airflow with their breathable weave. On cold winter nights, flannel duvet covers are a go-to for a warm and cozy feel. Explore our flannel duvet covers collection.
Thread Count and Quality
Look for a thread count between 300 and 500 for optimal softness and durability, but remember—fabric quality matters most. Opt for tightly woven fabrics that feel smooth and can withstand regular use.
Size Guide
Make sure to get the size that fits your duvet like a glove.
Twin duvet covers are for smaller beds in kids' or guest bedrooms.
Queen duvet covers (also known as double duvet covers) are a common size for couples or singles who fancy a big bed.
King-size duvet covers are the ultimate indulgence if you spread out and enjoy a space for yourself.

Easy Maintenance
Choose duvet bedding sets that fit seamlessly into your life. Machine-washable, wrinkle-resistant options make life easier. They can last for years if properly cared for. Use a gentle detergent with cold water and dry it on low heat. If you wish for a crisper look on your duvet, simply iron the cotton or linen covers lightly.
Did you know? Cotton and linen fabrics may shrink slightly when subjected to high dryer or washing heat. Wash in cold water and dry on low to avoid shrinkage and keep them in great condition. Remove them from the dryer while still slightly damp to prevent over-drying.
Style Tips
Pick a duvet set that reflects your personality and aligns with your décor. The neutral-toned covers are usually more sophisticated, while the patterned or textured ones are bold. Pair it with shams or throws for a more chic, modern look.

What’s the Difference Between a Duvet Cover and a Comforter?
Comforters are convenient, but they could be harder to clean. While both are essential to your bedding setup, duvet covers and comforters serve different purposes. A duvet cover is a removable cover that is similar to a pillowcase. It protects the duvet from stains and wear and makes it easy to clean and switch styles. A comforter is a single-piece, quilted blanket that doesn't require a cover. While comforters are convenient, they could be harder to clean.
