Satin Duvet Cover
The Best Closures:
Duvet covers are usually fastened across the open end with buttons, snaps, ties, hoot-n-loop strips or a zipper. This makes the covers easy to remove for washing. Look for duvet covers with a quality zipper, strong snaps, color matched hoot-n-loop strips or buttons that are sewn tightly and reinforced at the stitching. Make sure that the buttonholes are well stitched so they won’t fray in the laundry. These are all signs of quality and will add to the life of your duvet cover.
Fabric preferences are different for everyone. Some of the fabrics used in duvets are:
- Cotton: Cotton is the most common material for duvet covers. Cotton can be made into limitless patterns and textures. It is easily dyed, easy to dare for, soft and has great breath ability.
Blends: Cotton-polyester combines the best of natural and synthetic fibers. These blends – durable polyesters with soft, breathable cottons – are ideal for easy care, no iron bedding.
Satin: Satin is luxurious, soft and ofter washable. Satin will take vibrant dyes in the most gorgeous colors and is an elegant duvet cover choice.
Faux suede: Faux suede is usually a polyester fabric which feels and looks like the real suede. Being imitation, it is more affordable and easier to clean than real suede, and it comes in hundreds of colors.
Velvet: Most velvets are polyester blends and washable. This heavier look in a duvet cover may be better for the cooler months.
