Do you need to use a top sheet with a duvet cover?

Whether or not to use a top sheet when sleeping beneath a duvet cover is a matter of personal preference. Many sleepers choose to skip a top sheet since the duvet cover is easy to remove and launder. Eliminating the top sheet also simplifies making the bed in the morning, since it removes one step from the process.

How do you insert the duvet and secure it inside the cover?

Like a pillowcase, duvet covers are open on one end to allow you to easily insert and remove the duvet. Turn the duvet cover inside out, lay it on top of the cover, then flip the cover right side out. For duvet covers made for larger beds, it's often easiest to enlist the help of a second person. Most duvet covers come with buttons or ribbons that allow you to keep the open side securely closed. Zippered closures are also available. To prevent the duvet from shifting around while you are sleeping, some duvet covers come with ribbons on the inside that are designed to be tied around the corners of the duvet to keep it in place. If your duvet cover doesn't come with internal ties, you can purchase inexpensive comforter clips or donut-shaped grips to prevent the duvet from sliding.
