Cotton duvet cover

Cotton duvet covers in different sizes

Your bed, your duvet and your bedroom get their “final touch” with the right single cotton duvet cover or double cotton duvet cover. If you choose a single cotton duvet cover, it measures 140x200 or 140x220. If you choose a double cotton duvet cover, the size can vary from 200x200 to 200x220. Or, in the case of a lits jumeaux duvet cover, it is an extra-large size of 240x220.

If your bed is 90 cm or 100 cm wide, we recommend using a single duvet and a single cotton duvet cover. For any bed wider than 100 cm, we recommend a double duvet and a double cotton duvet cover. If you have an even wider bed (this can start from 180 cm), we recommend choosing a cotton lits jumeaux duvet cover.

Almost every single and double cotton duvet cover has a tuck-in flap. It is often across the full width and completely open at the bottom, which means you can use these cotton duvet covers for all duvet lengths. 

What exactly is cotton?

Cotton is one of the most widely used fabrics in the world. This textile is organically derived, which means it contains no synthetic compounds. Cotton fabric comes from the fibres surrounding the seeds of the cotton plant, which appear in a round, fluffy form once the seeds have fully matured.

Although cotton is more durable than silk for a duvet cover, it is less durable than wool, and the fabric is relatively prone to pilling, tearing and splitting. Even so, cotton remains one of the most popular and most produced fabrics in the world for bedding. This textile has a relatively high tensile strength, and its natural colour is white or off-white.

Cotton is highly absorbent and therefore ideal for your duvet cover, but it also dries quickly, which means it wicks moisture away very effectively. A cotton duvet cover can be washed at high temperatures, and the fabric drapes beautifully. However, cotton creases quite quickly and can shrink in the wash unless it has undergone a pre-treatment.

Cotton duvet cover 240x220

A cotton duvet cover offers many advantages, and many sleepers find it ideal in both summer and winter. The double cotton duvet cover is available in sizes 240x220 and 240x200 cm, while the single duvet cover in 140x220 can be on your doorstep just two days after purchase, ready to give you a wonderfully comfortable sleep experience.

Cotton duvet covers in sizes 240x220, 200x200, 240x200 and 140x220 cm are available in many different colours. Cotton is naturally white or off-white, but at Weids Living and Sleeping you can buy black, white, ochre yellow, blue, pink, grey and pink. Cotton satin fabric is often colourfast and, when washed according to the care instructions, is a durable fabric you can enjoy sleeping under, snuggling up in and appreciating for years, with beautifully draped fabric.

A single (140x220 cm) or double (240x220 cm, 240x200 cm) duvet cover made from (Egyptian) cotton has fantastic benefits:

• Hard-wearing
• Natural feel on the skin and body
• Good moisture absorption
• Cotton is breathable/air-permeable
• Easy to clean
• Quick-drying
• Colourfast
• Absorbs moisture well when you perspire
• Strong fabric and often used for duvet cover sizes: 140x220 cm, 240x220 cm, 200x200, 240x200 cm

Compared to other fabrics, a cotton duvet cover is not always the cheapest, but it is very durable. Producing the fabric, for example, requires more water than bamboo, but it is hard-wearing, which gives it a long lifespan. Egyptian cotton is known as the best quality. Follow the washing instructions carefully, because the fabric creases quickly. It is often colourfast in black, white, pink, ochre yellow, grey or anthracite and blue.

Buy a cotton duvet cover in black, white and other colours

Frequently asked questions

Percale cotton duvet cover ,what is that?

A percale cotton duvet cover is a cotton duvet cover, but with a different weave from regular cotton. Percale cotton has a higher thread count. It also uses finer yarn and is woven differently. This creates a very fine, supple and soft fibre of pure hotel quality. This 100% natural material is a real addition to any bed and bedroom. 

What is an Egyptian cotton duvet cover?

These days, Egyptian cotton duvet covers are very popular and continue to grow in demand. This beautiful, luxurious and soft fibre also comes from the well-known cotton plant and is considered the best cotton in the world. An Egyptian cotton duvet cover can be made as percale cotton or as cotton satin. These two options refer to how the cotton is woven. Satin cotton has the smoothest weave and a beautiful, luxurious sheen.
