White Duvet Cover

Description

Duvet covers are valued for their softness, breathability, and durability, with features like moisture-wicking, temperature regulation and ease of care. They often incorporate closures such as buttons or ties and come in various styles, weaves, and colors to match different decors. We give you the best covers that do not wrinkle and are long lasting. 

General features of cotton duvet covers

• Weave:Common weaves include percale for a crisp, cool feel, and other looser weaves for increased softness. 
• Washed Cotton:Garment washing creates an excellent softness and a relaxed, textured, linen-like appearance that gets softer with every wash. 
• Organic Cotton:A popular choice for its skin-friendly, luxurious, and soft properties. 

• Closures: Many cotton duvet covers use hidden button closures for a secure fit and clean appearance, while some use ties to keep the duvet insert in place. 
• Corner Ties:Internal corner ties are a common feature to help secure the duvet insert inside the cover, preventing it from shifting. 
• Versatility: Available in a wide range of styles, colors, and designs to suit different bedroom aesthetics. 
• Ease of Care:Most cotton duvet covers are machine washable, though care instructions like cold water and gentle cycles are recommended to maintain their quality. 

• Wrinkling: Cotton naturally wrinkles and may develop a soft, slightly crinkled texture after washing, which some find appealing for a relaxed look. 
• Allergies: While soft, cotton may not be the best choice for everyone, and some people may find linen more suitable. 
• Washing: Follow specific care instructions for your duvet cover, such as cold machine wash, gentle cycles, and tumble-drying on low heat, to prolong its life.

• Remove the insert: Always remove the duvet or comforter insert from the cover before washing. Washing them together can lead to uneven cleaning, and the weight of the soaked insert can damage the washing machine.
• Frequency: Wash your duvet cover every one to two weeks, or more frequently if you have allergies, pets, or if you eat in bed.
• Check the label: Always check the care label for material-specific instructions. Most duvet covers can be machine-washed, but delicate materials like silk or sateen may require dry cleaning.
• Close fasteners: Close all zippers, buttons, or ties before washing to prevent snagging or tangling.
• Wash inside out: Turn the duvet cover inside out to protect prints and vibrant colors from fading.
• Sort colors: Separate whites and colors to prevent colors from bleeding.
• Select the right cycle and temperature: Use a gentle or delicate cycle with cold or warm water to prevent shrinkage and color fading. Avoid hot water unless the care label specifies otherwise.
• Use mild detergent: Choose a gentle, color-safe detergent. Avoid using bleach, which can weaken fibers and cause yellowing over time.
• Skip fabric softener: Fabric softener can leave a residue on the fibers that reduces absorbency and breathability. 

• Air-dry: Whenever possible, line-dry your duvet cover to preserve the fabric and reduce wrinkles. If drying outside, hang it in the shade to prevent colors from fading.
• Tumble-dry on low heat: If using a dryer, select a low-heat setting. High heat can cause shrinkage, especially with natural fibers like cotton and linen.
• Use dryer balls: Add wool dryer balls or clean tennis balls to the dryer to help fluff the fabric, speed up drying, and reduce wrinkles.
• Remove promptly: Remove the duvet cover from the dryer while it is still slightly damp to reduce wrinkling.
• No over-drying: Over-drying can weaken fabric fibers and cause shrinkage. 

• Act quickly: Treat stains immediately by blotting the affected area with a clean cloth.
• Use mild treatment: Apply a gentle stain remover or a paste of baking soda and water to spot-treat stains. For oil-based stains, sprinkle cornstarch or baking soda to absorb the oil before washing.
• Follow instructions: Always test a new stain remover on an inconspicuous area first and follow the care label instructions. 

• Clean and dry completely: Before storing, ensure the duvet cover is clean and completely dry to prevent mold and mildew.
• Use breathable bags: Store in a breathable cotton or fabric storage bag. Avoid plastic bags, which can trap moisture and cause musty odors.
• Fold neatly: Fold the cover neatly to minimize wrinkles and creases. You can even store the entire bedding set inside one of the pillowcases to keep it organized.
• Add freshness: Place a lavender sachet or cedar block in the storage area to repel pests and keep the linens smelling fresh.
