What is a duvet?

A duvet is an upper layer of bedding that keeps you warm at night. It can be made from different fabrics, the most common being cotton because it is so soft and comfortable.

Duvets are usually white and filled with natural or synthetic fibers such as down, silk wool, feathers, polyester, or down alternatives. Duvets are stitched all over in such a way as to keep the stuffing evenly distributed.

Duvets originated in Europe. The word “duvet” comes from the French word ”down”, referring to the soft and delicate layer of feathers under the more rigid exterior feathers on the bellies of geese and ducks. Traditionally, European duvets were always filled with down. If someone says they sleep “European style”, that generally means they use a duvet.

What is a Duvet Cover and What is it used for?

A duvet requires two pieces(the duvet itself and the duvet cover). A duvet cover is a large cloth bag used to cover the duvet. It has a zipper or buttons to keep the duvet inside.

While duvets are usually white, duvet covers come in numerous colors and patterns. They can be made from natural or synthetic materials, including cotton, linen, and silk.
Duvet covers protect the duvet itself from dirt, and one can wash it regularly.
