How to Choose a Luxury Duvet Cover
For many of our styles, duvet covers and pillow shams are all part of a luxury bedding set. You can purchase your duvet cover and shams along with sheets as a single bedding bundle, or mix and match complementary and contrasting designs outside a single bedding collection or a unique and coordinated look. You need not be confined to a specific style or even manufacturer. Our Egyptian cotton duvet covers are timeless best sellers. Many of our clients love their cotton duvet cover so much that they style their entire bedding ensemble around it, adding contrasting patterns, colors, and designs with sheets, throw blankets, and other bedding accessories. Also look for features that are important to you, such as corner ties to hold the duvet insert in place.
How to Style Your Duvet Cover
Styling your perfect duvet cover is entirely up to you. As we noted above, many luxury bedding collections come as a duvet cover set. However, you need not be confined to specific bedding bundles. Most luxury bedding is sold as individual pieces. This is also important for anyone who prefers to skip using a fitted sheet, using only a flat sheet and sleeping directly under a duvet cover.
More About Pillow Shams
Pillow shams are an essential accessory that truly elevate the look of your bed linen ensemble. They are different from pillowcases in that shams are decorative and not really made to be slept on. The majority of our luxury bed linen styles include several pillow sham offerings in a variety of sizes. While these vary a bit among manufacturers, the sizes you may encounter are: Standard Sham (for a standard pillow) , King Sham (for a king size pillow) , Euro Sham (square, roughly 27" x 27"), Boudoir Sham (12" x 16") and, less frequently, a cylindrical Neckroll Sham. While all these sizes may be included in a sham set, you can purchase them individually to style them to suit your taste and comfort.
Caring for Your Duvet Cover
Luxury bed linen is an investment and should be cared for properly. Your duvet set is no exception. With proper care, your duvet cover and shams will remain beautiful keeping its softness and comfort for years to come. Most of our duvet covers are washable -- yes, even silk duvet covers -- and we offer a range of gentle, effective detergents and products that make it easy to care for your heirloom linen. Always follow care guidelines and remember to launder your duvet cover and shams at the same time to ensure consistent wear.
