Many models of duvet covers are available to you at Bonsoirs. This is the opportunity to explain to you the differences between these different models, their advantages and disadvantages.
Which duvet cover to choose from the different closing systems offered?
While the cover with a zipper system will appeal to a child, the duvet cover with snap closure will appeal to teenagers and adults alike. In reality, there are more than two models of duvet covers. Here are the different systems available to you on the bedding and household linen market.
1. Bottle finish duvet cover
Let's first look at the bottle-shaped duvet cover, which is also called a chimney cover . This is a classic model, with an opening of approximately 40 cm at the lower end of the fabric. Depending on your habits, the outer flap can be placed in the cover itself or under the mattress, in order to securely hold the duvet in the bed.
Depending on the material chosen, the bottle duvet cover is easy to maintain. Cotton percale and cotton sateen duvet covers can be machine washed many times. Their tight weave gives them excellent resistance to washing. The material of your bedding sets is of very good quality, you can even consider putting them in the dryer.
2. Duvet cover with snaps
Today, it is quite common to find duvet covers with snap closures . The practicality of this closing system may appeal to you. As with the bottle-shaped cover, the maintenance of this type of cover will be rather easy, provided you choose an undemanding material. This is the case of the linen duvet cover which is easily machine washable. Furthermore, it will add incredible charm to the decoration of your bedroom.
You will find this type of closure on one-person covers as well as on two-person covers . Little hygiene tip: By choosing your fitted sheets in the same colors and in the same material as your duvet covers, you will be able to wash them at the same time, which will save you precious time.
3. Duvet cover with single buttons
You will also find duvet covers with decorative buttons, which can add a very aesthetic touch to your household linen. For a night full of sweetness , what could be nicer than a romantic bed decoration? Be sure to read the label on your new bedding set to take note of the maximum machine temperature.
You will find duvet covers with visible buttons , but also covers with interior buttons. It's up to you to choose the model that suits you best. Whether it is linen, cotton or polyester microfibers, it must adapt to your personality as well as the decor of your bedroom.
4. Wrap duvet cover
As with classic pillowcases, the wrap duvet cover has an interior flap that keeps the duvet in place. Like the cover with chimney, this model is made entirely of fabric. However, you don't have to worry about the flap, since it is already inside the cover.
The advantage of this model is that you can easily obtain impeccable bedding, with excellent hold and above all without any wrinkles. However, the most impatient may find a small flaw in this system. It is in fact more difficult to put the cover on the duvet for this type of model.
5. Zippered duvet cover
The duvet cover with zipper may be suitable for a child's bedroom. From a certain age, children tend to want to choose the decoration of their room themselves. By opting for this closing system, your little boy will be motivated to help you make his bed.
Of course, there are also covers with zipper for adults. Some models of zipped duvet covers are reversible. This allows you to offer additional aesthetics to your room. Moreover, on most models, the zipper is placed in a fold of the fabric, so that it is not visible.
6. Bag-shaped duvet cover
The last cover we offer is the most simplistic. This is the bag-shaped cover. Here, no buttons or flap, a simple opening allows you to slip the duvet in. For this model, no fuss, simplicity and efficiency are there.
The bag-shaped cover can be decorated with a few fabric cords. Once tied, these will help hold the duvet in place. You will need to pay particular attention to the quality of this duvet cover, as the cords can be weakened by the weight of the duvet pushing on the knots.
What other aspects should you consider when choosing your duvet cover?
Depending on your desires and expectations, you will need to take other criteria into account when choosing your duvet cover . First check that the cover chosen is the right size. For a 220x240 duvet , you need a 220x240 cm cover, it's that simple.
Once the model and dimensions have been chosen, you will need to agree on the aesthetics of the cover . Choose a material that you like, that is breathable, neither too hot nor too cold if you want to use it in all seasons. Then, remember to match your cover with your fitted sheet , for a successful bedroom decor.
Once you know what you want, don't hesitate to indulge! The main thing is that you feel good in your bed, for a good night's sleep...
