Best Fabric to Use for a Duvet Cover?

I want to make a king size duvet cover. Whenever I step into the fabric store and go to the home decorating/upholstery section, I'm quite overwhelmed by the selection.

I am thinking of making one large rectangle in the center out of a suede material, but I'm stumped about what I should put on the borders and on the opposite side (the side that will touch the flat sheet).

Answers:
Buy two different sheets - big enough to cover the duvet; sew as planned. This is economical & you can flip the duvet so the other sheet shows if you get tired of one side or the other.

Other answers:

egyptian cotton is expensive but makes the best covering for a duvet
A crushed velvet would be awsome with suede, an awsome brochade would be nice too.
