According to Parachute, brushed cotton is 'ideal for people who love the classic look of percale but want something a little softer and cozier. The fabric also appeals to those who like sateen but prefer a slightly lighter material. Not too hot, not too cool, undeniably snuggly and lightweight with a tasteful appearance, brushed cotton bedding checks all the boxes, making it a top choice for year-round use'.
The most important quality of a duvet cover is its size. The correct duvet cover must be large enough to perfectly accommodate the duvet. The duvet cover should close tightly around the duvet without allowing much room for the duvet to move about within. Duvets are available in various conventional sizes depending on the type of bed for which they are intended, although their thickness might vary. In most cases, a duvet for a twin bed will measure around 68 inches wide × 86 inches long, while duvets for an extra-long twin should measure approximately 68 inches wide x 90 inches long. The dimensions of a duvet for a large bed can range from 78 inches long x 86 inches wide to 86 inches wide x 86 inches long. In general, the dimensions of duvets for the Queen and King-size mattresses are 90 inches wide x 90 inches long and 92 inches long × 104 inches wide, respectively.


To get the best night's sleep possible, you need bedding tailored to your specific sleeping type. While a duvet and comforter may be similar in appearance, the duvet is a distinct top layer that can easily be swapped out each season. Because it is a covering, duvet covers are often mistaken with other types of bedding, just like bedsheets are.

While American bed sizes have remained fixed, there are no standard mattress depths. As a general rule, our fitted sheets have a gusset (AKA “pocket size” or “pocket depth”) that will fit mattresses up to 17” deep with enough room to tuck under the mattress. However, most of our purveyors accommodate custom orders for deeper or thinner sizes.
Usually a flat bed sheet is overlocked around the edges to form four seams. One of the seams is wider than the other three and helps with orienting the sheet correctly on the mattress. The wider seam goes at the head end of the mattress. Sometimes the sides do not have seams, but are finished with the selvedge only. When one makes a bed, the patterned or monogrammed side of the top sheet may be placed facing up, or facing down, in which case the top edge may be folded towards the foot of the bed to expose the design.
