Collection: Double Duvet Cover
Quick Answer: A double duvet cover is sized to fit a standard double (full) duvet insert, typically measuring around 80 x 88 inches. Ensure the cover has interior corner ties to keep the duvet anchored, and a secure zip or button closure. Cotton percale double covers are the most popular for their breathability and durability.
Canadian Down Duvets That Actually Keep You Warm
Dorothy and I stock authentic Canadian Hutterite down,considered the world's finest because prairie geese develop dense down clusters in harsh Canadian winters. Down quality is measured by loft rating, not fill weight. 625 loft ($280-$380) suits most people in heated homes. 700 loft ($380-$480) is for cold sleepers or poorly insulated rooms. 800+ loft ($480-$580) is premium quality that lasts 15-20 years.
Higher loft means larger down clusters that trap more air and compress less over time. A 700 loft duvet at $420 will outlast three 500 loft duvets at $180 each. We've seen customers return after 15 years to buy the same duvet again,that's real value. Synthetic duvets ($89-$189) work fine for allergies or budget constraints but don't regulate temperature like down.

Sizing & Care
Duvets should overhang 14 inches per side. Queen duvets (88" × 90") fit queen beds (60" × 80") perfectly. King duvets (104" × 90") work for king beds (76" × 80"). Professional cleaning every 2-3 years maintains loft. Use duvet covers ($59-$159) to protect your investment,washing the cover is easier than cleaning the entire duvet.

Frequently Asked Questions
Double and Twin Duvet Covers
Finding the right duvet cover starts with knowing your duvet size. A standard twin duvet measures approximately 66 by 86 inches, while a double (full) duvet measures about 80 by 86 inches. Our duvet covers are sized to fit these standard Canadian dimensions with enough room for a comfortable drape.
We carry cotton duvet covers, cotton-blend options, and microfibre covers in a range of colours and patterns. Cotton twin duvet covers breathe well for warmer sleepers, while microfibre options resist wrinkles and are easier to care for. All our bed linen is designed to hold up wash after wash.
Sizing tip: If your duvet feels too small for your bed, you may need to size up. A double duvet on a double bed provides minimal overhang. Many customers prefer a queen duvet on a double bed for a more generous drape. Check our bedding dimensions guide for exact measurements.
Talia, Showroom Specialist: "One thing customers do not always realise is that double and full are the same size. If you are shopping online from an American retailer, look for "full" if you can't find "double." Our team is always happy to help clarify sizing before you buy."

Frequently Asked Questions
What dimensions is a standard double duvet cover?
A standard double duvet cover is typically 80 x 88 inches, designed to fit a double (full) duvet insert measuring approximately 79 x 87 inches. Dimensions can vary slightly by manufacturer, so compare the cover dimensions to your insert before purchasing to ensure a snug, non-bunching fit.
Are double and full duvet covers the same size?
Yes. "Double" and "full" refer to the same mattress and bedding size (54 x 75 inches for the mattress). The terms are used interchangeably depending on region. In Canada, "double" is the more commonly used term, while American retailers typically say "full."
What fabric is easiest to care for in a duvet cover?
Microfibre is the easiest to care for: wrinkle-resistant, quick-drying, and machine washable in cold water. Cotton percale is slightly more effort but more breathable and durable over time. For double duvet covers that will be washed weekly, a quality cotton cover will hold up better over years of regular washing than most microfibre options.
How do I prevent my duvet from sliding inside the cover?
Use corner ties if your cover has them, and match the corners of the insert to the loops inside the cover before inserting. If your cover lacks ties, consider sewing in fabric loops. Shaking the cover and insert together each morning also keeps the fill evenly distributed throughout the day.
