Connie Linen Plain Duvet Cover Set - Olive

The Connie duvet cover set is a reversible design that gives you two looks in one. One face carries broad olive-green stripes on a soft natural ground; turn it over and you have a plain, colour-matched reverse. Both the cover and the pillowcase are finished with a ruffle trim along the edges, which is the detail that softens the whole set and lifts it above a plain stripe. The fabric is a cotton-rich blend of 60% cotton and 40% polyester, woven to give the relaxed, slightly textured look of linen without the price or the pressing that real linen asks of you.

This is a set for a bedroom that leans warm and unfussy. The natural-and-olive palette sits happily against wood furniture and pale walls, and the plain reverse means you can dress the bed down on a busy day and turn the stripes up when you want them. It works for a country-styled room and an urban one equally, and it takes a coloured accent cushion, a blush or a soft pink, without any fuss. Layer it with a throw at the foot of the bed and you have a bed that looks considered rather than staged.

The cotton in the blend gives the set its breathability and its soft handle, while the polyester helps it hold its shape and resist creasing wash after wash, so it comes off the line looking presentable. A button closure keeps the duvet held inside the cover through the night and through the wash. The set is offered from single through to super king, so you can match it to the bed you have. The single includes one pillowcase; double, king and super king each include two.

What is the Connie duvet cover set made from?

It is a cotton-rich blend of 60% cotton and 40% polyester, woven for a soft, linen-look finish that feels breathable and holds its shape through repeated washing.

Is the set really reversible?

Yes. One side carries broad olive-green stripes on a natural ground, and the reverse is a plain colour-matched face, so you get two distinct looks from the one cover.

How many pillowcases come with each size?

The single size includes one pillowcase, while the double, king and super king sizes each include two pillowcases alongside the duvet cover.

What holds the duvet inside the cover?

A button closure runs along the opening, which keeps the duvet held securely in place overnight and stops it shifting around during the wash cycle.

What colours does it work with?

The natural and olive palette sits well with wood furniture and pale walls, and it takes a soft pink or blush accent cushion comfortably.

Does the ruffle trim run all the way round?

The ruffle trim edges both the duvet cover and the pillowcase, giving the set a soft finished border rather than a plain hemmed edge.
