Lightweight Duvets for Warmer Days

As spring sunshine gives way to warmer nights, many of us find ourselves kicking off heavy covers, flipping pillows to the cool side, or waking up in a sweat. Seasonal transitions can make restful sleep tricky — especially if your winter bedding is still hanging around.

The secret to better summer sleep? Choosing a duvet that works with the season, not against it. Lightweight, naturally breathable materials and smart construction can make all the difference when temperatures rise.

Here are some of our favourite summer duvet options to help you rest easy in the coming months:

For Fresher, Dryer Sleep

Moisture-wicking, ultra-breathable, and made from sustainable wood pulp, TENCEL™ Lyocell is a favourite amongst our customers for a reason! It both feels luxuriously lush on the skin and offers healthier, more comfortable (and vegan!) sleep. 

This year, we’re introducing our new 100% TENCEL™ Lyocell Ambience Duvet! A summertime dream, Ambience keeps you cool and dry from fill to shell, head to toe, so you can stop dreaming of popsicles and start counting sheep. 

For Classic Cool Comfort

A timeless summer sleep solution, soft & simple cotton is what many people crave in the hotter months. 

Our Vesta Cotton Duvet is super lightweight and naturally breathable, with an easy breezy lofted fill that keeps you cool as a cucumber through hot summer nights. 

For Elevated Temperature Regulation

Crafted from the most luxurious material in the world, mulberry silk bedding regulates your temperature while offering a beautiful drape that contours your body, keeping you cool and calm all night.

An allergy-friendly bedding solution, our Pearl Mulberry Silk Duvet is an ideal choice for those who may both sneeze and sweat in the hotter months, and also crave some lightweight luxury.

For Lightweight Down Lovers

Prefer cloud sleeping? But want to keep it cool? Yes, cooler down does exist! Meet our Chilko White Down Duvet, a lightweight option for hot sleepers in the summer months. Crafted with a soft and resilient cotton shell, Chilko is naturally breathable and machine washable!

For Easy-Care Aficionados

Keep it simple! A fuss-free, easy-care summer bedding solution, microgel is a perfect option for the cottage, cabin, or stinky summer kids.

Soft, lofty, and light as a cloud, with a breathable cotton shell, our Carmanah Microgel Duvet is the ideal value choice for warm sleepers who want to sleep fresh and launder easy! 

Summer nights don’t have to mean hot, sweaty sleep. With the right duvet, you can stay breezy and let your bedding do the heavy lifting while you drift off into cool comfort. Protect your summer duvet with a natural, breathable duvet cover, complete with ties that match up perfectly with the loops in our duvets!
