Duvet covers may not fit properly due to a mismatch in size between the cover and the duvet itself. Always check the size specifications before purchasing and account for any potential shrinkage if the material is prone to it. Consider purchasing a cover slightly larger than your duvet to accommodate. Additionally, make sure you're distributing the duvet evenly inside the cover. A common solution is to look for covers with ties or buttons at the corners to secure the duvet and prevent shifting.
