The Duvet

The duvet, a common luxury bed linen, is a term that's thrown around a lot without an equal amount of explanation. Suffice to say, in modern luxury bed sets, that the duvet is meant to be the luxury bedding alternative to both a comforter and sheets. This is one of the many reasons why the number of "pieces" in a luxury bedding sets isn't terribly important. Be sure to pay attention to the actual contents. A duvet will generally take up only as much space as a comforter, so expect luxury bedding sets with duvets to be a bit smaller and lighter than others. Unless, of course, there are more extras.
