Duvet cover system and method of using

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to an improved duvet cover system. The duvet cover system comprises a duvet cover which is washable, reversible, and which may include one or more clips for attaching to and detaching from a duvet or comforter. The one or more clips minimize slippage of the duvet or comforter, prevent uncomfortable bunching, and facilitate keeping the duvet or comforter and duvet cover in a relatively fixed position while duvet cover is opened and closed, while the edges of the duvet cover are at least partially sealed, and while the duvet or comforter is removed from or placed within the cover.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An improved duvet cover system having a first layer, a second layer, at least one clip or fastener, and at least one clip or fastener attachment means. 
     
     
         2 . The duvet cover system of  claim 1 , including an edge closing means. 
     
     
         3 . The duvet cover system of  claim 1 , including at least one sealed edge portion 
     
     
         4 . An improved duvet cover system including an improved duvet cover, the improved duvet cover being adapted to have both an open configuration and a closed configuration, and the improved duvet cover comprising;
 a first layer and a second layer joined to one another along a seam, the first layer comprising a first outer surface, the second layer comprising a second outer surface, and the first layer and second layer comprising an inner surface wherein, when in the closed configuration, the first and second layer further comprise a first side edge along the seam, a second side edge, a third side edge, and a fourth side edge and wherein, when in the open configuration, the first layer comprises a first open top edge, a second open top edge and a third open top edge and the second layer comprises a first open bottom edge, a second open bottom edge, and a third open bottom edge;   at least one clip or fastener having a duvet or comforter attachment means and a receiving means capable of receiving a clip or fastener attachment means, wherein the at least one clip or fastener is capable of attaching to and detaching from the duvet or comforter and at least one clip or fastener attachment means;   at least one clip or fastener attachment means received proximate at least one edge of the duvet cover, the clip or fastener attachment means being capable of attaching to and detaching from the receiving means of the clip or fastener; and   at least one edge closing means received proximate at least one edge of the duvet cover, the edge closing means being adapted to at least partially secure at least a portion of one of the first, second, and third open top edges to at least a portion of one of the first, second, and third open bottom edges; wherein a comforter or duvet can be contained between the first layer and the second layer in an at least partial face-to-face relationship with the inner surface.   
     
     
         5 . The cover system of  claim 4 , wherein the cover is washable. 
     
     
         6 . The cover system of  claim 4 , wherein the cover is reversible. 
     
     
         7 . The cover system of  claim 6 , wherein the appearances of the first surface and second surface are different. 
     
     
         8 . The cover system of  claim 4 , wherein the clip or fastener attachment means comprises at least one strip of material adapted to be tied to and untied from the clip or fastener, wherein the at least one strip is washable and extends from the cover proximate at least one edge of the duvet cover. 
     
     
         9 . The cover system of  claim 4 , wherein the edge closing means comprises a zipper assembly comprising a first zipper chain, a second zipper chain, a zipper slider, and a zipper slider pull tab, the first zipper chain is received continuously proximate to and along the first, second and third open top edges, the second zipper chain is received continuously proximate to and along the first, second, and third open bottom edges and engaging the edge closing means comprises at least partially joining the first open bottom edge to the first open top edge, the second open bottom edge to the second open top edge, and the third open bottom edge to the third open top edge. 
     
     
         10 . The cover system of  claim 4 , wherein the at least one clip or fastener attachment means comprises at least one pair of clip or fastener attachment means proximate opposite respective edges, and wherein the at least one clip or fastener comprises at least pair of one clips or fasteners adapted to attach to and detach from the duvet or comforter and from the at least one pair of clip or fastener attachment means. 
     
     
         11 . The cover system of  claim 10 , wherein the at least one pair of clip or fastener attachment means comprises three pairs of clip or fastener attachment means received in a symmetrical configuration proximate respective opposite edges of the duvet cover. 
     
     
         12 . The cover system of  claim 4 , wherein the first layer and second layer comprise a first sealed edge portion along the second side edge and a second sealed edge portion along the fourth side edge, the first and second sealed edge portions originate proximate the first side edge and extend towards the third side edge and terminate between the first side edge and the third side edge. 
     
     
         13 . The cover system of  claim 12 , wherein at least one clip or fastener attachment means is received proximate at least one of the first and second sealed edge portions and between the first side edge and the location at which the at least one of the first and second sealed edge portions terminates.
