Duvet thickness matters more than nightwear
Short answer: If the duvet is too warm, thin nightwear will not help. Choose the duvet by your bedroom temperature and use bedding to fine tune.
The duvet sets the frame
A winter duvet in a room at twenty degrees is too warm whatever you sleep in. See bamboo bedding.
Bedding fine tunes
Thin bamboo viscose bedding moves moisture away and feels cooler against the skin than thick cotton. See bamboo homewear.
Two duvets in one bed
If you sleep at different temperatures, two duvets are the only real solution. See bamboo sleepwear for women.
Change duvet by season
One summer duvet and one winter duvet cover the year. Switch at the change of season along with the wardrobe. See bamboo sleepwear.
