Choosing the right size for a custom anime blanket or bedding set is more important than most buyers realise — and the rule of thumb is simple: 100×130cm works as a lap throw, 130×150cm suits sofa use, 150×200cm covers a single bed, and for duvet sets you match your existing UK duvet size (Single 135×200cm, Double 200×200cm, King 220×240cm). Get it wrong and a duvet cover sits awkwardly on the mattress, or an undersized throw ends up folded in a corner. Because every LUCKI DECO product is printed to order, sizes cannot be changed once production starts, which makes five minutes of measuring worth far more than a support request later. This guide walks through every size option, a UK bed size chart, and how print quality scales with dimensions — so you can order with confidence.
Throw Blankets vs Duvet Cover Sets
The first decision is whether you need a throw blanket or a duvet cover set.
Throw Blankets
Throw blankets (typically 130×150cm) are perfect for sofa use, wrapping up while watching anime, travelling, or as a decorative wall hanging. They are lightweight and versatile. If you want a gift that works for any living space — not just a bedroom — a throw blanket is the safer choice.
Duvet Cover Sets
Duvet cover sets replace your existing bedding with a custom-printed design. They typically include a duvet cover and one or two pillowcases. These are ideal if you want to fully transform a bedroom into an anime-themed space. They are the most popular option for teens, students, and dedicated anime fans.
Bed Size Guide
- Single — best for children aged 6+ or single beds (duvet cover: 135×200cm)
- Double — standard adult double bed (200×200cm duvet cover)
- Queen — slightly larger than double, common in the US and Australia
- King — the largest standard size, ideal for couples wanting maximum coverage
What Size Should I Gift?
If you are buying as a gift and do not know the recipient’s bed size, a throw blanket is always the safest option — it works on any bed, sofa, gaming chair, or even as a wall hanging, so there is no wrong answer. The 150×200cm large throw is the most gift-friendly size: big enough to cover a single bed and impressive to unwrap, but not dependent on matching a specific mattress. If you do know the bed size, a matching duvet cover set makes the more memorable gift — it includes pillowcases and transforms the whole room rather than adding a single accessory. For children, UK Single (135×200cm) is the standard choice; for teens and adults, Double (200×200cm) is the most commonly ordered size at LUCKI DECO.
How the Print Looks at Different Sizes
All LUCKI DECO designs are optimised for each size. Larger sizes do not simply stretch a small image — the artwork is adapted to look its best at every dimension. Our AI-enhanced 4K printing ensures sharp details whether you order a Single or King size set.

UK Bed Size Reference Chart
If you are ordering a duvet cover set, matching it to your mattress size is essential. Here are the standard UK bed sizes and the corresponding LUCKI DECO duvet cover dimensions:
| Bed Size | Mattress (cm) | Duvet Cover Size | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single | 90 × 190 | 135 × 200 cm | Children’s rooms, single beds, bunks |
| Double | 135 × 190 | 200 × 200 cm | Standard adult double beds |
| Queen | 150 × 200 | 220 × 240 cm | Slightly larger double, European-style |
| King | 150–180 × 200 | 240 × 220 cm | King and super-king beds, maximum coverage |
Tip: If you are between sizes, always go larger. A duvet cover that is slightly too big will drape nicely; one that is too small will look awkward and feel uncomfortable to tuck in.
Anime Throw Blanket Sizes Explained
Throw blankets serve a different purpose to bedding sets — they are versatile, portable, and work on sofas, gaming chairs, and beds alike. Here is what to expect from LUCKI DECO throw sizes:
| Size | Dimensions | Best Use |
|---|---|---|
| Throw | 100 × 150 cm | Sofa, lap blanket, gifting |
| Large Throw | 150 × 200 cm | Single bed coverage, gaming setups, wrapping up fully |
The Large Throw is our most popular option. At 150 × 200 cm it covers a single bed completely, works as a sofa blanket, and provides enough surface area for detailed character art to really make an impact.
How to Measure Your Bed (The Right Way)
Before ordering, take two minutes to measure your actual mattress — not the bed frame. Bed frames vary significantly in width, and some older UK beds do not match standard modern dimensions.
- Width — Measure across the widest point of your mattress, not the frame.
- Length — Measure from head to foot along the mattress surface.
- Match to the chart above — Choose the duvet size that is at least 45 cm wider than your mattress width for a proper overhang on both sides.
Blanket or Bedding Set: Which Should You Choose?
This is the most common question we receive at LUCKI DECO. The honest answer is: it depends on how you want to use it.
Choose a throw blanket if:
- You want something versatile that moves from bed to sofa to gaming setup
- You are buying as a gift and are not sure of the recipient’s bed size
- You already have existing bedding you like but want to add an anime layer on top
- Budget is a consideration — throws are priced lower than full bedding sets
Choose a duvet cover set if:
- You want a full bedroom transformation with a single purchase
- You sleep under a duvet and want the anime art to be the first thing you see in bed
- You want the matching pillowcase included for a cohesive look
- You are printing a complex scene or group shot — duvet covers offer more surface area for detail
Print Quality and Size: Why Bigger Is Better
One of the most underappreciated aspects of custom anime bedding is how print quality scales with size. On a throw blanket, a character portrait looks great. On a king-size duvet cover, the same character becomes a centrepiece — the level of detail visible in a 4K print at that scale is genuinely impressive.
LUCKI DECO uses AI-enhanced image upscaling before printing, which means even if your source image is not high-resolution, our system restores detail before the print goes to fabric. The result is consistent sharpness across all sizes — no pixelation, no blur, regardless of whether you order a throw or a king-size duvet cover.
Frequently Asked Questions About Sizing
What size anime blanket should I buy?
As a rule of thumb: 100x130cm works as a lap throw, 130x150cm suits sofa snuggling, and 150x200cm covers a single bed. For bedding sets, match your UK duvet size.
What are the standard UK bedding sizes?
UK Single is 135x200cm, Double is 200x200cm, King is 220x240cm and Super King is 260x220cm. All LUCKI DECO bedding sets follow UK sizing.
Do the blankets shrink after washing?
No. Polyester microfibre holds its shape and size when washed at 30°C on a gentle cycle, unlike cotton blends which can shrink.
What if I order the wrong size?
Contact info@luckideco.com as soon as possible after ordering. Because items are made to order, size can be adjusted before production begins — but not after it starts, so act quickly.
Do UK and EU bed sizes differ?
Yes — European beds tend to be slightly longer (200cm vs the UK’s 190cm standard) and European double duvets are typically square (200x200cm). Check your mattress against our size chart, and when in doubt, size up.
Can I see a size preview before ordering?
Yes. Each product page includes a size guide with exact dimensions, and if you want to visualise a specific design at your chosen size, email info@luckideco.com for a print preview mockup.
