Growing Up in Style: One Duvet Cover, Styled for Every Age

Growing Up in Style: One Duvet Cover, Styled for Every Age

2025 Jul 16th

As kids grow up, it’s easy to second-guess investing in quality items—after all, clothes and shoes are outgrown in no time. But bedding—the right bedding—is different: it can evolve with your child. A thoughtfully-chosen duvet cover, paired with age-appropriate accessories and sheets, can follow them from their bunk bed days all the way to their first dorm room.

To show you how versatile the right bedding can be, we styled our Tidal Duvet Cover for three different stages: kids, teens, and college students. Why Tidal? Sure, it’s gorgeous—but like many of our designer linens, it’s also reversible (two looks in one!) and gender-neutral, making it a smart pick for evolving tastes (because the pink phase doesn’t last forever).

Our duvet cover of choice is crafted from TENCEL™ Lyocell, a sumptuously soft, natural fabric renowned for its temperature-regulating and moisture wicking properties—perfect for every stage of child (and adult!)-hood. 

Pro Tip: Size up your child’s bedding early— if it's extra roomy on a smaller bed now, it’ll still fit a bigger bed down the line.

Designing your child’s bed is all about cozy comfort and playful touches that make bedtime something they’ll actually look forward to.

Our Bamboo Cotton Sheet Set with Activated Charcoal

Start with a super soft, breathable sheet set that will help regulate their temperature and wick away any excess moisture. We love Bamboo Charcoal for the little ones because it helps them sleep fresh, it’s long-lasting and easy to launder, and it also has a gentle, soothing texture.

Our Alphabet Letter Cushions, perfect for relaxing

Add on a soft and cozy throw blanket, a personalized letter cushion, and a weighted cushion like Orca (find it in stores!) that will make a splash. And if the tooth fairy is visiting your kids these days, we’ve got a special cushion for that—complete with a little pocket to store their teeth.

As kids grow into teenagers, they’ll likely spend more time in their rooms—and want their beds to feel a bit more grown-up. Swap out playful accessories for extra pillows they can lounge on, and add a solid quilt set for an extra layer of comfort and style.

Teens also tend to sleep warmer than younger kids, so consider switching out a heavy duvet for a lightweight one to help them sleep more comfortably. We recommend our Pearl Mulberry Silk Duvet or our Vesta Cotton Duvet for natural, breathable options.

Temperature-regulating, moisture-wicking sheets are also a must for sleepy teens. We recommend Bamboo Charcoal or TENCEL™ Lyocell sheets for super fresh, extra comfy sleep. Add in an extra breezy layer and shield their bed from late-night snack spills with pillow and mattress protectors.

Time for College! Stay Cozy, Cool, and on a Budget

Dorm life is a cozy but budget-conscious time, so a long-lasting, reversible duvet cover like Tidal gives you more bedding styles for your buck. Most dorm beds are Twin XL size, and we recommend choosing cool, breathable sheets in a TENCEL™ Modal fabric.
