The duvet cover is like 2 sheets sewn together that goes over the duvet. You wash the duvet cover but you have to have the duvet dry cleaned.

Several more steps. The duvet cover wrap goes around the duvet cover to keep it clean. That, in turn, is protected by the duvet cover wrap cover.
In very dry climates, duvet cover wrap covers can be covered, of course, by a secondary duvet cover wrap cover, but the more common scenario has them all simply tossed into a corner underneath some form of ceramic pottery. Usually, this pottery is covered by the ceramic pottery wrap cover (the actual "wrap" being considered unnecessary as long as the cover has been covered) . . . .
