duvet cover

Bedding's protective shell

A duvet cover is a protective fabric shell that slips over a duvet or comforter, functioning like a giant pillowcase.

It keeps the duvet clean and allows easy washing—you launder the cover rather than the bulky insert.

Duvet covers also let you change bedroom décor without replacing the duvet itself: I bought a linen duvet cover for summer.
