Description
The Hettie duvet cover set is printed with a fine vertical stripe: soft coral and rust lines running the length of a warm cream ground, set against a subtle self-toned pinstripe that fills the space between them. What looks at first glance like woven seersucker is in fact a printed design, so you get the relaxed, casual look of that puckered ticking-style stripe on a smooth, flat cloth. The set is made from 100% polyester, and the same stripe runs on both sides, so there is no right or wrong way to lay it out.
This is an easy-going set for a bedroom that leans warm and unfussy. The coral and rust tones sit happily with pale walls, natural oak and other muted, earthy accents, and the stripe is quiet enough that it does not fight a patterned rug or a bold headboard. It comes in three sizes, single through to king, so it works for a child's or teenager's room, a spare room or a main bedroom. Being polyester, it suits a busy household where bedding needs to go through the wash often and come out ready to use.
The cover fastens with buttons along the opening, which hold the duvet in place without the bulk of a zip and are simple to do up and undo. Polyester is a hard-wearing, easy-care fibre: it resists creasing, dries quickly and holds its colour through repeated washing, so this set stays looking fresh with very little effort. The single includes one pillowcase and the double and king each include two. Style it plainly with white sheets to let the stripe do the talking, or layer it with a textured throw and a couple of plain cushions in the same warm palette.

Frequently Asked
Is the seersucker effect a real texture or is it printed?
It is printed. The design gives you the look of a puckered seersucker stripe, but the fabric itself is smooth and flat rather than textured.
Can I use either side of the duvet cover facing up?
Yes. The same striped pattern is printed on both sides, so there is no reverse and you can lay it either way round.
How does the cover close?
It fastens with buttons along the opening, which keep the duvet in place and are quick to do up and undo when it is time to wash the cover.
What is it made from and how does that affect care?
It is 100% polyester, a hard-wearing fibre that resists creasing, dries quickly and holds its colour well through repeated washing.
How many pillowcases come with the set?
The single size includes one pillowcase, while the double and king sizes each include two pillowcases.
