Summer Striped 100% Soft Cotton Duvet Cover Set - Garmentwashed | Limasso

A garment-washed duvet cover set is crafted by washing the fully stitched, finished bedding item rather than washing the fabric on large rolls before production. This specialised pre-washing process relaxes the cotton fibres, resulting in an exceptionally soft feel from the very first night, a beautifully relaxed aesthetic, and a guarantee that your bedding won't shrink in future home washes.

While both treatments focus on ultimate softness, the methods differ slightly. Stonewashing uses natural pumice stones during the wash to create a slightly more textured, vintage look with subtle colour variations. Garment washing uses modern enzymes and softening agents to achieve a clean, buttery-soft matte finish with uniform colour, perfect for those who want lived-in comfort without the rustic texture.

No, one of the greatest benefits of garment-washed bedding is its effortless upkeep. The process gives the fabric a naturally relaxed, soft-wrinkled texture that looks sophisticated and cozy without ironing. However, if you prefer a crisper look, a light steam or low-heat iron will easily smooth it out.

Yarn-dyed means that the individual cotton threads are dyed into specific colours before they are woven together on the loom to create the fabric. This traditional, premium method contrasts with "piece-dyed" or printed bedding, where a pre-woven white fabric is simply stamped or dipped in dye at the very end.

Yarn-dyed bedding offers superior depth of colour, intricate pattern details (like rich checks, stripes, or textured solids), and a significantly softer touch because there is no stiff ink sitting on top of the fabric. Since the colour is fully integrated into the core of every single thread, yarn-dyed sets are incredibly resistant to fading, ensuring your bedding looks rich and vibrant for years.

To preserve the premium texture and deep colours, we recommend washing your Limasso sets at 30°C on a gentle cycle with similar colours. Avoid bleach or harsh whitening agents, as these can break down the natural cotton fibres and affect the dye. Tumble dry on a low heat setting or line dry in the shade to maintain that signature casual luxury feel.

A standard duvet cover set usually includes:

• 1 duvet cover
• 1 or 2 pillowcases (depending on size)

Always check the product page for the exact contents.

Always choose your duvet cover size based on yourduvet (quilt) size, not just your mattress. The best match is when your duvet cover dimensions closely match the duvet dimensions.

Typical UK set sizes are:

• UK Single: 1 duvet cover (135 × 200 cm) + 1 pillowcase (50 × 75 cm)
• UK Double: 1 duvet cover (200 × 200 cm) + 2 pillowcases (50 × 75 cm)
• UK King: 1 duvet cover (230 × 220 cm) + 2 pillowcases (50 × 75 cm)
• UK Super King: 1 duvet cover (260 × 220 cm) + 2 pillowcases (50 × 75 cm)

Choose based on yourduvet. Two people with the same bed size may use different duvet sizes or thicknesses.

Check thelabel on your duvet(often shows dimensions). If there’s no label, measure the duvet laid flat.
