Linen Duvet Covers

Brooklinen Linen Duvet Cover

$265 at Brooklinen

Tester: Zoë Sessums, digital design writer

My sleep preferences: I wouldn’t say I’m a particularly needy sleeper, but I do run quite hot, so that’s always a consideration. Also, I tend to look for nice colors, simple patterns, and a natural fiber in my bedding. I think a duvet cover is a particularly great option if you have pets (it’s easier to wash than an entire comforter or quilt), or if you like to mix up your bedroom look on the regular.

About the brand: As a hot sleeper, I find linen to be a great all-weather material. Brooklinen is the “home of the internet’s favorite sheets,” so it seemed like a worthy destination for quality bedding. This duvet is made from 100% European flax linen and is OEKO-TEX® certified for chemical safety.

My experience: I have a limited-edition blush pink linen duvet cover and find it to be really lovely. The pink gives my room a bright pop and the wrinkled nature of the linen makes the duvet not look too precious. I found the process of putting on and taking off the duvet to be as easy as any other, so no complaints here.

The bottom line: Brooklinen really knows how to make a quality set of bedding, and this is no exception. My only issue is that I wish the cover came with a set of pillowcases for the price.

Riley Home Linen Duvet Cover

$210 at Riley Home

Tester: Elaheh Nozari, food and home commerce director

My sleep preferences: I like to be burrowed under covers in a cold, cold room. No matter how hot the temperature is outside, I need the weight of a heavy blanket on me to sleep well. I prefer down comforters to non-down ones because one down comforter provides enough weight to make me feel secure, and I always use a duvet cover. I prefer ones that feel crisp and cool and have some kind of texture—linen often fits the bill.

About the brand: I’ve been coveting a Riley duvet cover for a while, as the brand routinely pops up in “best of” stories online. I’ve had a few linen duvet covers in my lifetime and this one tops the list because of the dual material: linen on top (100% Euroflax Belgian linen) and a cotton percale reverse that keeps you cool and gives the duvet cover a year-round feel. All Riley duvets have ties sewn into the corners that attach to their comforters so the insert doesn’t slide around; I don’t have a Riley insert, so I couldn’t take advantage of this feature, but it is a perk worth noting.

My experience: Putting a duvet cover on is one of my most dreaded chores. I’ve either gotten better with practice, this Riley one is easier to put on than duvets I’ve owned in the past, or some combination of the two. I slept with this duvet cover after a month using another unnamed linen duvet cover, and I much preferred the texture of this one. One of my pet peeves with duvets is when the comforter slides around inside and one quadrant of the cover is just empty space; I’m extra sensitive to this because my previous duvet did it all the time, so I was extremely happy to see that the Riley duvet stayed in place, even though I didn’t use the aforementioned ties that loop onto the Riley inserts.

The bottom line: If you like the look and feel of a linen duvet cover but want it to feel more year-round than seasonal, the reverse percale is a game changer. The linen material has a lot of texture but still feels soft to the touch.

Parachute Linen Duvet Cover

$250 at Parachute

Tester: Lila Allen, AD PRO editor

My sleep preferences: Regardless of the season or the temperature, I have to be snuggled under a cover in order to fall asleep. Generally, that means I go after bedding that I can pull up to my ears and really burrow into. Because I share my bed with a hot-blooded husband and a large Maine Coon cat, my bed tends to run warm, so I look for layerable, snuggly covers that I can pile on and take off as needed.

About the brand: A darling of the 2010s direct-to-consumer movement, Parachute is a seven-year-old home brand best known for their bedding, though the company has also dabbled in loungewear, furniture, mattresses, and other essentials. Their products, including the Linen duvet cover, are Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified, meaning that every element (even buttons!) has been tested for substances damaging to human health. Parachute also doesn’t artificially soften their products. In the wrong hands, linen can be itchy or stiff until it’s been broken in, but that wasn’t the case here. This version, made of European flax and made in the Guimarães region of Portugal, was inviting and oh-so-soft. The company also touts the material as naturally antimicrobial, which is a plus.

My experience: I was pleasantly surprised at how soft this cover was—again, with linen, sometimes it can be a roll of the dice (though I love the look). This set had the best of both worlds: super supple, but still casually elevated. The linen is a nice thickness too; I can’t see any trace of the duvet inside of it. I paired mine with an all-season comforter from Riley, which stays secure through a button closure on the side. Together, the two have just the right amount of rumple. My duvet does move around a bit inside of the cover, but has mostly remained in place. Best of all, I’ve been sleeping soundly with the set on hot nights as well as ones where the A/C has been on overdrive, and so far, it holds up in both situations. Not too warm or cool.

The bottom line: This duvet is a keeper. If you’re looking for a super crisp, formal bed, this is probably not for you. But for those seeking bedding with nonchalant elegance—and come-hither softness—this linen set will have a lot of appeal.

Quince European Linen Duvet Cover

~~$219~~ $100 at Quince

Tester: Elise Portale, social media manager

My sleep preferences: I live in a studio apartment, so my bed is not just a place for sleep but a place to hang out and decompress at random times of the day. Having a soft duvet cover is a must for me—but I’m also a pretty hot sleeper, which means that heavier fabrics that are super plush are a no-go. My cat is also the messiest person I know, so, you know, it’s got to be durable and easy to clean.

About the brand: Quince’s entire deal is about making high-quality luxury products at an affordable price. They work only with factories that are both sustainable and pay a fair wage, which is something that many shoppers care enough about to pay a little extra for, but Quince cuts back on things like fancy packaging to keep costs down.

My experience: Right off the bat, I knew this was going to be a good one. The European flax linen is so soft and comfy, and I can tell that it can take a lot of wear while still seeming luxurious. Paired with my insert, it is quite roomy, so putting it on wasn’t too bad, though I’m not a huge fan of the button closures. They look nice, but they do make my least favorite chore last longer. Sleeping with it has been a dream. It’s really easy to snuggle with, which I know I’m going to love even more come winter. The only real downside is that it’s noticeably larger than my insert—I can tell it would be even more plush if I had a fluffier one to fill it out. (Maybe it’s time for an upgrade?)

The bottom line: I would absolutely recommend this duvet cover. It may not look fancy, but if you like a softer, more utilitarian bedspread, Quince is a winner. The linen is ridiculously soft from the moment you take it out of the package, and it comes at a price that you really aren’t going to find elsewhere for the same quality. I can just tell it’s going to last me for a long, long while.

Piglet Linen Duvet Cover

$249 at Piglet

Tester: Zoë Sessums, digital design writer

My sleep preferences: Runs a tad warm, always looks out for nice colors, patterns, and a natural fiber.

About the brand: Piglet is a West Sussex–based company all about natural stonewashed linen. I’m a big fan of linen for the look and the cooling nature of the fiber, so I was keen to try this one out. I have the beautiful sage green color, and it has only gotten better with wear (I’ve had it about two years). The soft French flax duvet cover is an ideal option, if you like that crumpled look on your bed—though you can iron it, if creases aren’t your thing.

My experience: I loved this duvet off the bat—it’s soft, it’s sturdy, and the color is stunning. Even the nice wood closures add a nice touch. The duvet will not give you any issues.

The bottom line: Though it’s a bit of a splurge, this Piglet linen duvet is 1000% worth it.

The Modern Dane Organic European Linen Duvet Cover

$269 at The Modern Dane

Tester: Mel Studach, AD PRO associate editor

My sleep preferences: Consider me the polar opposite of a weighted blanket enthusiast. I much prefer a lightweight topper: a breathable duvet in the summer, then top it with a linen quilt come winter. And a top sheet, always. Because I prefer sleeping in slightly warmer temperatures, the more airy the set, the better. When it comes to a duvet cover, I’m not particularly tied to one material—percale and linen and a sateen weave each have their perfect setting—but I do prioritize breathability.

About the brand: The Modern Dane’s founder, Scandinavia-born, Seattle-based Jacob Andsager, says the bedding company’s sustainable practices and ethos for simplicity and longevity derive from his home country. Though to be fair, this duvet cover had quite the well traveled life prior to landing on my queen mattress. Its organic flax linen is made from flax seeds harvested with zero waste in Belgium, France, and the Netherlands; the threads are woven sans harmful chemicals in Portugal; and the company’s patterned linens are designed with a Scandinavian lens.

The fact that the linens are cooling thanks to the material’s thermo-regulating properties is a plus, and I love the thoughtful details—like the fact that all four interior corners of the duvet cover have corner ties to assure the duvet won’t budge—too.

My experience: Thanks to the aforementioned corner ties, the duvet cover was super simple to fit to my duvet. I’m one wash in, and the linen duvet cover already has that soft, relaxed linen feel. (According to the label, the cover becomes softer with every wash. Not that anyone should need an excuse to clean their bedding more often, but that’s certainly a good one!)

The bottom line: For those looking for the relaxed feel that linen bedding offers, this set is perfect—and priced competitively. The company’s plant-friendly practices are a plus too!

Italic Pure Linen Duvet Set

$75 at Italic

Tester: Rachel Fletcher, commerce editor

My sleep preferences: Sleep is among my top five favorite things. I like a cool sleeping environment: light linens, fan or A/C running, and crisp but gentle fabrics that keep me chilled throughout the night. I almost always use a duvet cover. Even in the summer I’ll use a lightweight insert or comforter, like this one, and I like a duvet that’s easy to take on and off and is easy to wash.

About the brand: The Italic duvet is made of 100% Oeko-Tex certified flax linen. Linen is naturally a cooling fabric and the manufacturing process tends to use less water than cotton and is therefore better for the environment.

My experience: This duvet feels expensive. While it has a natural heft to it, it doesn’t feel heavy or weighed down when you’re sleeping under it. The material feels incredibly high-quality (Italic claims they use the same manufacturer as Ralph Lauren and Wamsutta for their linen bedding) and is as easy as a duvet can be (which is to say, not particularly easy!) to fit over a comforter. Plus, it’s machine washable and relatively easy to dry, which is much appreciated.

The bottom line: I’d definitely recommend this duvet, if linen bedding is up your alley. It’s elegant-looking, feels incredibly well made, and the price ($75-100) isn’t bad either.

Deiji Studios Duvet Cover

$315 at Deiji Studios

Tester: Sydney Gore, digital design editor

My sleep preferences: I’m a very sensitive sleeper! I don’t have air-conditioning in my bedroom, so I’m not a fan of layered bedding when it’s scorching out, but I feel restless without the weight of a comforter. Because of this preference, I use duvet covers all year round. In recent months, I’ve grown to love the texture of linen for a bedding fabric, so that’s what I opt for when I’m in the market for a new set.

About the brand: Deiji Studios is an Australia-based brand that has been on a mission to “blur the lines between sleepwear and ready-to-wear” since 2016. They’re committed to producing high-quality linen bedding and loungewear that is all-encompassing so you get to experience every aspect of life in complete comfort.

My experience: A fun fact about this duvet cover is that it was designed to be “cool for summer and warm for winter,” so it was essentially made for someone specifically like me! It’s about as soft as you would expect, the perfect pairing for my Buffy comforter, which feels like sleeping on an actual cloud. This particular shade of pink is so unique because it doesn’t look overly feminine, something that I think some folks might appreciate. For the record, Deiji Studios claims that their linen is hypoallergenic, 30% stronger than cotton, and environmentally friendly because it “uses less water and chemicals to cultivate.”

The bottom line: I have no complaints about this product, but will admit that I have used linen covers that feel a touch softer. If that’s a huge deal breaker for you, then you might want to try something else, but I love the range of colors within the palette that Deiji Studios currently offers. (I’m already considering investing in another set!)

Area Eli Duvet Cover

$320 at Area

Tester: Audrey Lee, commerce writer

My sleep preferences: I instinctively reach for a duvet or comforter any time temperatures drop below 75 degrees, so I like to have one readily available at the foot of my bed, even in the hotter months. I typically prefer cotton bedding, since I know it won’t irritate my skin, but I’ve also had success with linen and bamboo or eucalyptus-based Tencels.

About the brand: For over 30 years, Area has been designing bedding, furniture, and home accessories under Swedish tradition with a focus on quality craftsmanship and function. Case in point, its carefully formulated Eli duvet made of a specially formulated 55% linen, 45% cotton blend. Made in Portugal, this material mash-up is engineered to bring out the best of both worlds: the weight of linen married with the added softness of cotton—something I was excited to experience.

My experience: The first thing I noticed when the cover arrived was how weighty it was: not too stiff or overly heavy, but definitely thicker than I’m used to. That said, the linen-and-cotton blend is a winning combination in my book. Though I love the look and breathability of linen, I’m not always a fan of its rigid texture. Thankfully, that’s not a problem with Area’s cotton-linen hybrid, which really does supply a cozy, cotton-y softness, and wrinkles a lot less than my 100% linen bedsheets. If I could add just one more thing, it would be some sort of internal corner ties or snaps to properly secure it to my duvet insert.

The bottom line: If you offered me a full wardrobe made out of Area’s cotton-linen, I’d take you up on your offer in a heartbeat. I can definitely see myself gravitating towards this duvet come fall or winter because of how cozy it feels. And though it is on the pricey side (a queen-size will run you just over $300), I would say it’s worth it because I can tell the quality is long-lasting. If I could add just one more thing, it would be some sort of internal corner ties or snaps to properly secure it to my duvet insert (though according to Area’s founder, Anki Spets, inserts themselves should be slightly larger than the cover in order to prevent fabrics from clumping and moving out of place).

Alvine Kvist Duvet Cover and Pillowcases

Alvine Kvist Duvet Cover

$45 at Ikea

Tester: Kristi Kellogg, senior SEO content manager

My sleep preferences: I would consider myself a pretty standard sleeper. I like to have a lot of blankets (the fluffier the better) and warmth because I’m constantly cold. I prefer comforters and duvets to quilts, and the style and aesthetics of the bedding are as important to me as the comfort. I won’t sacrifice either!

About the brand: This is an IKEA exclusive. Like all things from IKEA, it’s budget-friendly and made to last.

My experience: I love this duvet cover. It’s lightweight cotton, and the floral pattern is great to look at—plus, the lightweight cotton has a cozy, ultra-soft feel. The duvet cover features button closure (which compliments the overall vibe and style of the duvet), and it is available in twin-, full-, queen-, and king-sizes. I pair it with this top-rated duvet insert from Amazon Basics.

The bottom line: I would 100% recommend this! It’s a great duvet cover that has lasted dozens of washes and still looks fresh (absolutely zero signs of pilling or wear).

Cotton Duvet Covers

Brooklinen Classic Duvet Cover

~~$139~~ $111 at Brooklinen

Tester: Mel Studach, AD PRO associate editor

My sleep preferences: Give me a relatively firm mattress, a lightweight duvet, and a room that’s not too cold, and I’m good to go.

About the brand: I’m not sure what’s left to say about this bedding brand that hasn’t already been plastered across subway ads or Instagram feeds, but in short, the seven-year-old upstart has already garnered cool-kid status by offering top-quality products using Oeko-Tex certified products at reasonable prices.

The Classic duvet cover is made of percale, which I always liken to a crisp cotton button-down shirt. It’s soft and sophisticated in a matte finish, plus lightweight and breathable.

My experience: I’m not particularly picky when it comes to my duvet cover material—percale and linen and sateen each have their perfect setting—but this Classic duvet cover has tipped the scales for me! I love how crisp and smooth the percale is—in both appearance and touch. And inserting the duvet was simple with help from the cover’s “long” and “short” interior tags.

The bottom line: You can’t go wrong with a classic percale bedding. Plus, Brooklinen’s assortment offers a fun mix of solids and patterns to choose from.

Riley Home Sateen Duvet Cover

$165 at Riley Home

Tester: Elaheh Nozari, food and home commerce director

My sleep preferences: I typically look for a crisp duvet cover. I like the somewhat rough texture of linen, but second to that, I’ll take a soft cotton duvet that is breathable. I’m a picky sleeper in that I like to be cool but like the weight of a heavy down comforter to make me feel calm.

About the brand: Riley partners with textile mills in Portugal to deliver super high-quality bedding at an affordable price (a price tag of $129 is one I can get behind). The duvet is made of 100% premium long-staple combed cotton, a very durable material that feels luxe and gets softer with each wash. This is crucial for me: Though I love linen, I sometimes feel like when I’m wearing it down with each wear and wash. I know a cotton material like this can handle all the wear.

My experience: Similar to the Riley linen duvet cover, this was super easy to put on, and the insert stayed in place (even though I don’t have a Riley comforter that can attach to cover’s interior loops). I liked the material right out of the bag and even more so after the first wash, when it became noticeably softer. There’s also a bit of a sheen from the sateen material, but it’s subtle, which suits me.

The bottom line: If you’re looking for an affordable and simple duvet cover, this is a great option. It’s soft, feels luxurious, is well made, and is a great year-round option that works for a variety of sleepers and temperatures.

Boll & Branch Signature Hemmed Duvet Set

$308 at Boll & Branch

Tester: Erika Owen, global director of audience development

My sleep preferences: I am definitely a sweaty sleeper. The perfect sleep set-up, for me, is in front of a fan with lots of pillows and a cozy blanket or duvet cover to curl into when the fan gets a little too chilly. When it comes to duvet covers, the material has to be silky soft and cool to the touch.

About the brand: Boll & Branch is a Fair Trade USA certified company, meaning they are held to strict environmental, economic, and social standards within their production. The duvet cover I tested is made of 100% organic cotton and included a duvet cover and two pillow shams. The material was super airy: the kind of fabric that feels cool every time you lie down. I have a less expensive cotton duvet cover from a while back, and you can really tell the difference in material. I could be lying underneath or on top of this blanket for multiple hours, leave for a few minutes, and it feels cool again by the time I jump back into bed. It’s like cuddling into a hotel bed every time.

My experience: I loved the buttons and corner ties on the duvet cover. I use an old comforter for my duvet covers and it’s prone to a bit of wiggling and bunching. That didn’t happen with this cover, thanks to the extra security. I also want to mention the pillow shams: Each one has a zipper closure so there’s no way your pillow is escaping. I really appreciated that, as I’m known to toss my pillows around a bit mid-sleep. The material gets a bit wrinkly after a few nights of use, but it gives off more of a “lived-in” vibe than messy.

The bottom line: I would 100% recommend this duvet cover, especially if you’re a hot sleeper prone to night sweats, or if you often find yourself irrationally irate when the comforter spills out of the duvet cover. The color options are also super luxe; I tested the Mineral Blue, and it adds a sophisticated pop of color to my space.

Snowe Softexture Duvet Cover

$230 at Snowe

Tester: Audrey Lee, commerce writer

My sleep preferences: Loves a duvet year-round, partial to natural fibers.

About the brand: Snowe is all about accessibility to great design, reflected in their lines of high-quality bedding, towels, and serve-ware. The Softexture cotton duvet cover from the brand is made of Oeko-Tex certified, 100% long-staple organic cotton and treated in Italy to give it a textured finish and overall wrinkled appearance. Its lighter, looser weave makes it ideal for summer weather, while rubber button closures and internal ties keep your insert secure.

My experience: I knew I would like this duvet from the get-go because it was everything I look for in my summer bedding: Thin! Airy! So soft! Not only did I love how the rumpled cotton felt (which I’d liken to being wrapped up in your favorite T-shirt), I loved the purposely lived-in look of it too. I HATE when my duvet insert gets twisted in the cover, so the corner ties were especially useful for keeping it secured, and I appreciated the rubber buttons, which were easy to do up and undo when it was time for a wash.

The bottom line: Because of how thin and light this duvet is I’d say it really is the perfect bedding for summer, and I’m excited to see how it holds up as I get more use out of it. I especially love pairing it with my olive green linen sheets from the Citizenry, which I think together give my sleep set-up an overall luxurious, but inviting look and feel.

Kotn Duvet Cover Set

$170 at Kotn

Tester: Zoë Sessums, digital design writer

My sleep preferences: Runs a tad warm, always looks out for nice colors, patterns, and a natural fiber.

About the brand: Kotn is a company based in Canada that sells lovely home goods and clothing that is ethically and sustainably made in the Nile delta. Its quality basics are made from 100% Egyptian cotton, and every purchase funds new schools. For my duvet, I have the subtle Cashmere/White Microstripe option and really love it. It has a premium 400-thread-count weave, pearlescent button closures, and inset corner ties to keep your comforter snug inside. Plus, two matching shams.

My experience: There is a nice textural quality to the microstripes, and they actually get better after a wash—a chic rumple, if you will. I found it easy to put on and take off, and a nice way to add a visual interest to my bed.

The bottom line: I’m a new fan of the brand and really think this is a worthy duvet, if you’re a fan of sustainable cotton.

The Citizenry Organic Cotton Gauze Duvet

The Citizenry Organic Cotton Gauze Duvet Set

$250 at The Citizenry

Tester: Sydney Gore, digital design editor

My sleep preferences: I sleep with a Buffy Cloud Comforter all year so having a rotation of duvet covers is crucial.

About the brand: The Citizenry prides itself on being a company that offers reasonably-priced handmade goods, crafted with the highest quality materials that are locally sourced from around the world. Every product is made in small batches, so there are limited quantities available. The brand is also committed to “providing fair wages, happy working environments, and sustaining grants.”

My experience: I’ve always been a fan of gauzy clothing because it’s such a breathable material, but for some reason I never thought to buy bedding made out of this fabric until now. According to The Citizenry’s website, this duvet is made “using fully traceable, all organic cotton from the Aegean region of Turkey” that is Oeko-Tex and Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS)–certified. I opted for the charcoal colorway because black bedding is often hard to come by.

The bottom line: Get it, you won’t regret it! All of your guests will thank you.

The Company Store Legends Hotel Supima Cotton Sateen Duvet Cover

The Company Store Legends Hotel Supima Cotton Wrinkle-Free Sateen Duvet Cover

~~$209~~ $167 at The Company Store

Tester: Audrey Lee, commerce writer

My sleep preferences: Loves a duvet year-round, partial to natural fibers.

About the brand: It’d be easy to outfit your whole linen closet with The Company Store’s wide range of offerings, but the brand’s bedding has always been a particular standout to me. From colorful quilts to quality comforters—and of course, lovely sheets and duvet covers—I think it’d be nearly impossible for even the pickiest shopper not to find something they love. I was excited to try the Company Store’s Legends Hotel Supima Cotton Sateen Duvet Cover, a 450-thread count duvet made from wrinkle-resistant, long-staple Supima cotton, that promises to be versatile enough for year-round use.

My experience: Straight out of the packaging, it struck me just how luxuriously thick the duvet material felt. Currently available in 22(!) different color options, I chose the calming blue Cloud shade, and absolutely love the way the slight sheen on the sateen fabric looks with my plain, white bed sheets. Corner ties and convenient button closures made it easy to secure my insert to the cover, and I was pleased to see the duvet sat nicely inside throughout my time using it (I absolutely hate it when they get twisted up and constantly have to be adjusted). Personally, I found this duvet cover to be extremely cooling—a dream for any hot sleeper or someone looking for extra ventilation in the middle of the night. And though I prefer something much cozier in the winter, I look forward to revisiting this very breathable material when temperatures run hot.

The bottom line: I’d definitely recommend this duvet cover to any hot sleepers out there. The material feels extremely high-quality, and it really reminds me of hotel-style bedding. Plus, it’s available in so many different colors, you can basically match your bedding to whatever your desired color palette or design scheme may be.

Serena & Lily Border Frame Duvet Cover

~~$298~~ $238 at Serena & Lily

Tester: Rebecca Grambone, associate social media manager

My sleep preferences: When it comes to my sleep situation, I love a room that is pretty cool temperature-wise year-round (yes, even in the dead of winter). In fact, I would rather wear more layers to bed than on top of me (a.k.a. I don’t get the hype around weighted blankets). I find it very uncomfortable when I get too warm at night and will end up tossing and turning, which is why I tend to favor more breathable fabric for my duvet cover.

About the brand: Serena & Lily is a brand known for its simplistic “California-cool” designs favored by customers who lean towards a coastal aesthetic, and their Border Frame duvet cover definitely fits the bill. This particular cover is made with luxurious cotton sateen, is Oeko-Tex certified, making it 100% eco-friendly, and is “expertly woven by the world’s best textile artisans” in Portugal.

My experience: Right off the bat, I loved the look of this duvet cover. It was simple and elegant yet had a nice touch of color from the sky blue border. It was super easy to get on my queen-size duvet, even though the sizing for this cover was made for both full and queen. At first glance, the material looks as if it is going to be super soft to the touch. However, it was just a tad more rugged than expected. But this definitely did not make it uncomfortable whatsoever. After a good eight hours of shut-eye (okay... maybe six), I’d call my overall experience with the duvet cover very positive. It kept me cool throughout the night, which mostly has to do with the fact that it isn’t super thick.

The bottom line: I would definitely recommend this duvet cover from Serena & Lily, if it’s in your price range. The material is top-notch, its design is simple and versatile, and most importantly, it’s comfortable. You won’t be sacrificing sleep over style.

Bamboo Duvet Covers

Ettitude Signature Sateen Duvet Cover

~~$179~~ $152 at Ettitude

Tester: Sophia Herring, associate editor

My sleep preferences: My ideal sleep situation is a cool room under soft, cozy sheets that keep me warm but not overheated. I’ve had sensitive skin for my whole life, so materials are something I’ve always had to pay attention to.

About the brand: Ever since its beginnings, Ettitude has offered ethical, environmentally friendly cotton-alternative products, like their Signature sateen cover in 100% organic bamboo. I’ve heard many fellow bedding enthusiasts sing bamboo’s praises. After one sleep, I’m fully on the bandwagon. It’s unbelievably soft, the equivalent of 1,000 thread count in feel. And because it doesn’t overheat and its hypoallergenic properties, my skin is loving it.

My experience: The duvet cover was easy enough to take on and off. I was wary of the material at first touch. It felt like silk, which in my mind translates to way too hot. I was pleased to find that the alternative wasn’t, and was indeed the best of both worlds. For the color, I opted for the slate stripe pattern, which is both fun and classic.

The bottom line: If you’re like me and just want to feel like you’re sleeping in a cloud, these duvet covers are highly recommended. And beyond that, for hot sleepers, those with sensitive skin, or those who just want to make a more sustainable choice, give Ettitude a shot for sure.

Eucalyptus Duvet Covers

Sijo Eucalyptus Duvet Cover

~~$125~~ $115 at Sijo

Tester: Audrey Lee, commerce writer

My sleep preferences: Loves a duvet year-round, partial to natural fibers.

About the brand: Sijo is an AAPI-founded brand started by two ex-tech company consultants who have been friends since middle school (you may already be privy to the brand’s very cooling eucalyptus sheets). In addition to partnering with the Joyful Heart Foundation to donate a percentage of sales to help sexual assault and domestic violence survivors, the brand is Oeko-Tex certified, meaning it only uses nontoxic processes to produce its offerings of linen and eucalyptus-based sheets, loungewear, duvets, and duvet covers.

My experience: Wrapping myself in this duvet cover felt so luxurious! I loved the elegant look of the silky smooth Tencel and was impressed with how cooling and comfortable the bedding was to sleep with, even in hotter weather. On the inside of the duvet, each corner has snap-closure loops to easily secure your comforter or duvet insert, along with easy-to-undo coconut-shell buttons that add a handsome touch. I was also able to try out Sijo’s equally impressive eucalyptus duvet insert, which naturally complemented the cover perfectly and I’d describe as the ideal middle-weight layer—not too heavy but not too light either.

The bottom line: Sijo’s duvet cover checked all my boxes. Actually stylish bedding that’s comfortable, cool, hypoallergenic, AND antimicrobial? Say less! With its easy-to-secure snaps and buttons, plus a range of neutral to bright color offerings, there no way you can go wrong in my opinion (and if you really want to treat yourself, I promise you won’t be disappointed with the duvet insert either!).
