Something with a little texture like what you are considering would be better than seersucker. And you can get some prettier pillow cases in same or contrast. I think those foam pillows never look nice, I may not keep that item out. Seersucker only looks good when it’s ironed imho. I would also think that a bare duvet even as an extra, should have a cover, or it will start getting shabby looking.
A blanket type extra may age a lot better, look better, fulfill the same purpose and can be used as a “throw” as well. I bought a beautiful piece of Alpaca at a fancy fabric store literally 40 years ago, it’s washable and still looks brand new. One of my best purchases ever. Or you could look for a wool Hudson Bay or Pendleton blanket. There are also some beautiful Dutch wool blankets on etsy. I just searched on etsy, and there are even some that match very well if you need 2 for your room. I would consider your other decor when choosing the throw, as it may be a focal point if the bed is more plain.
