Buying Guide

Turning a bedroom into a tropical paradise only means one thing: shopping for beach-themed duvet covers! Those sun-soaked days you've spent by the beach may have you wanting for more. If so, then decorate your personal sleeping chamber with a tropical print to remind yourself of why you work several days a week.

When you're shopping for beach-themed duvet covers, the choices available can easily get a bit confusing. Do you know which size you should get? What do you think is better for you: cotton or a synthetic alternative? Read our tips below to make the buying process easier.

What are the standard sizes of duvet covers?

Just like any other type of bedding sold online, duvet covers come in all sizes, ranging from twin size to California king. A single duvet is approximately 53 inches x 78 inches approx, a double duvet 78 inches x 78 inches, and a King duvet is typically 90 inches x 86 inches.

If you will be buying a new duvet, we suggest you buy from the same brand as your duvet cover as dimensions can vary slightly from one brand to another.

Is your duvet cover machine washable?

One aspect that you need to consider when selecting a duvet cover that's beach-inspired is the amount of care it requires as you wouldn't want a product that can only be cleaned at a Laundromat. If the product you've chosen is machine washable, check if the washer you have is large enough. If so, then you won't have any issue in cleaning the product.

What are the best fabrics for duvet covers?

Duvet covers are constructed using the same fabrics that are used for bed sheets. Polyester and cotton are common materials used as they're comfortable and easy to clean and care for.

Percale Cotton. This type of cotton is a lightweight blend. It is soft and light and it's like muslin. Also, it's durable and guaranteed to last years. On top of that, the material will retain its quality even when it is washed weekly. If you cover a down comforter using percale cotton, you will allow the heat of your body to transfer back to you from the duvet.
Blends. If you are looking for a cheap option, then your best choice is a mix of rayon and cotton or polyester and cotton. A blend is durable and wrinkle-resistant. As it is cheap, you'll be able to buy several pieces to suit your constantly changing décor. The only downside to using a blend is the fact that it isn't as long lasting compared to other types of fabric.

What are the least recommended fabrics for duvet covers?

There are certain types of fabric that you should avoid like upholstery-grade fabric. Its designs and textures may be attractive for blankets and sofas, but the material is a hassle for a duvet cover. It won't be as plush as it encases a duvet. Also, it'll add weight to your cover, defeating the exact reason why you have a down comforter. What's more, it takes a considerable amount of time to wash in a standard washing machine – if it's even washable.
