Britons aiming to give their bedroom a luxurious refresh this January are in luck, as a popular bedding set from Dusk is currently available at a significant discount. The brand's winter sale has slashed the price of the highly-rated Simone duvet cover, bringing a touch of hotel elegance to homes for less.
Luxurious Details at a Reduced Price
The Simone 220 Thread Count Scallop Embroidered Edge Duvet Cover is now a key feature of Dusk's promotional event. For a double size, the price has been cut from £50 down to £40. Larger sizes have also seen reductions, with the king size down from £60 to £48 and the super king from £70 to £56. It is important to note that matching pillowcases are sold separately for £10.
This bedding piece stands out due to its elegant design. Instead of a plain finish, it features a decorative scalloped border with coloured piping, available in shades like berry and blue. This adds a subtle yet sophisticated character to the bedroom. The fabric is 100% cotton sateen with a 220 thread count, which provides a smooth, silky texture with a gentle sheen.
Overwhelmingly Positive Customer Feedback
The product has garnered an impressive 4.9-star rating from reviewers, with many customers directly comparing its quality to that found in high-end hotels. One five-star review stated it was the “best quality bedding we have had” and that they would only buy from Dusk going forward. Another delighted shopper mentioned they had “been looking for a red edge duvet set for ages” and were not disappointed by the beautiful, soft cotton.
However, a small number of buyers were caught out by the fact that pillowcases are not included with the duvet cover. One review expressed slight disappointment, having assumed they were part of the set. Additionally, several shoppers have pointed out a minor maintenance point: the scalloped edging may require ironing after washing to restore its crisp, defined appearance.
Exploring Alternative Bedding Styles
For those who love the detailed look but prefer easier care, there are alternatives on the high street. Next offers the Wylder Olive Blousey Cotton Ruffle Duvet Set, which features ruffled edges that typically need less ironing. Prices for this set range between £36 and £62, and it comes in olive and pink with coloured piping.
Shoppers on a tighter budget might consider the Home Washed Scallop White Bedding Set from Argos. This option has a smaller scalloped trim edged in dark green and starts at just £18 for a single size. It is worth noting that this set is made from polyester rather than cotton.
Despite these alternatives, the Dusk Simone duvet cover continues to receive high praise for its premium feel. As one customer perfectly summarised, it offers “hotel quality at high street affordable prices.” The winter sale presents an ideal opportunity to invest in this well-loved bedding upgrade.
