Yes that's what its for.
A duvet cover is a comforter cover. In the French language, the word duvet is French for the word down. Duvet covers slip over and enclose comforters to protect comforters from dirt and oils. In particular, duvet covers are recommended to protect down comforters. Down comforters are not easy to clean, however, most duvet covers are made out of cotton which can be easily washed.
What else can I help you with?
Is a duvet cover warm enough to use in place of a comforter?

Can you use a duvet and a quilt?
Duvet is another word for comforter. A duvet cover is like a big, big pillowcase into which you insert your comforter (or duvet). Like a pillowcase, the duvet cover keeps the duvet clean longer.
How do you keep the down comforter inside the duvet from sliding around inside?
Many people simply turn their duvet cover inside out, lay the duvet insert (or comforter) on top of it and safety pin the four corners in place. Another method is to do basically the same thing using comforter clips instead of safety pins, since safety pins can come undone during the night and stab you. Comforter clips can be found at Bed, Bath, and Beyond. Finally, you can turn the duvet cover inside out and sew a strip of ribbon (around 10 inches should do it) to each of the corners. Then sew four more strips of ribbon to the corners of your comforter and tie the ribbons on the comforter to the ribbon on the cover together. Then you just turn the duvet cover back the right way and put it on your bed!

How do you use a duvet cover?
A duvet cover is used as an envelope to hold a duvet. To insert the duvet into the duvet cover, first spread the duvet cover flat over the bed. Open the bottom of the duvet cover. Find the top of the duvet and grab hold of the two top corners. The tricky part is sliding the duvet into the duvet cover. As best you can, while continuing to hold tight to the duvet corners, work the duvet up to the top of the duvet cover. Place one corner of the duvet into the corresponding corner of the duvet cover. Hold tightly onto that corner from the outside. Next, do the same at the other top corner. Hold tight to both corners and pull them up to the top of the bed. Make sure the middle top side of the duvet also lines up with the middle top side of the duvet cover. Now, as best you can, slide the duvet cover down over top of the duvet. Both the duvet cover and duvet will likely be bunched up, but keep gently working it down. It is a bit tricky. The goal is to get the bottom two corners of the duvet aligned into the bottom corners of the duvet cover. When the duvet and cover are mostly aligned, give the covered duvet a good shake to even out the contents. When you are happy with the duvet distribution, do up the bottom of the duvet cover. Now, snuggle up.

For families with several children and several beds, this can be a step saving device that the whole family can appreciate.

Are duvets better than quilts?
AnswerA quilt is a thick quilted blanket/comforter, in various patterns with quilting (stitching) throughout the quilt, securing the top layer, the batting (the stuffing) and the bottom layer together in decorative shapes. Many of the patterns are generations old, handed down from mother to daughter over the years. There are also many patterns that have names, such as the "Wedding Ring" design, the "Log Cabin", and the most basic and simple of all, the "Nine Patch". A comforter is a thick, quilted, fluffy blanket. Sometimes it's decorated and colored, but with dye, not embroidered like a quilt. It is usually filled with a synthetic fiber filler. It does not need a cover and is made to be the bedspread. It is either washed or dry cleaned when it gets dirty.A bedspread is a pre-filled bed cover with stuffing to be used as a decorative and warming bed covering, or is made from a single layer lighter weight fabric, such as chenille, and are used as the top cover on your bed. In the warmer months, they are often used alone, with only a sheet underneath. Bedspreads do not require a duvet, duvet cover, or a comforter.A duvet is a comforter that is filled with down feathers. The duvet is usually white, beige or off-white. It should be placed in a duvet cover. It can be made of down or polyfill.A duvet cover covers a duvet--like a slip on decorator. Most duvets are not decorated and usually people buy duvet covers. Imagine the duvet as a big flat pillow and the duvet cover as a big pillowcase. They keep the down clean and you can change the color of your bed on a moment's whim.As a duvet has a cover around it, it is usually not washed as it does not get dirty. The duvet cover is put in the laundry as a comforter would be. The fact the duvet is not washed means that natural materials (like down) can be used as insulation, which otherwise could be 'damaged' by laundering.
