Yes, fitteds need covers. There's no waterproofing layer in them at all - hence why you'll be getting leaks! The bitti boo's are fitteds and require covers. The Bitti D'lish are All in ones, and have a sewn-in layer of PUL, so they don't need covers.

Oh you poor thing, no wonder you got leaks! I feel bad now for not specifying the need for a cover in my TM add - I just assumed that the buyer would know that a Bitti Boo fitted would require a cover 
A 'fitted' nappy is a nappy where the whole body of the nappy is absorbent, but as no waterproof layer so it requires a cover. An AIO or pocket nappy don't require a cover as the body of the nappy has a built-in waterproof layer.

all bitti boos (fitteds) need a cover.
as with AIO's and fitteds they can be made several ways, the construction of a nappy has very little to do with the type.... for example the bitti dlish AIO comes in either a snap in or sewn in version...and their fitteds are snap in. snazzipants do a fitted nappy where it is all enclosed which is different again.

If you don't want a fitted nappy then you should go for the Itti Bitti D'lish - it's like a pocket nappy except the inserts snap in, just like in the Bitti Boo, only no cover required!  They also have a new version with the inserts sewn in, but they will take longer to dry.

Interestingly, I don't find that the sewn in takes longer to dry than the snap in - not entirely sure why not tho...

its nothing like a pocket nappy, it doesnt have a pocket and it doesnt have an outer layer of PUL and the abosrbency is already included and is already sewn on or has snaps to snap it together.
I also find the sewn in itti dlish (AIO) dries very quickly and i love i dont have to look for the snap on bits.
if you want the best for ease of use then get the bitti d'lish. youcan get a trial pack from mothers instinct, which is two nappies, one is a snap in the other sewn in and then you can decide which you prefer.
so to recap
bitti boo is a fitted and will need a cover
bitti d'lish is an all in one (AIO) and needs nothing else.

Bizzy - What I meant was it's like a pocket in that it has a built-in waterproof layer (doesn't need a cover) - and if you look at the rest of what I said, I went on to say that it has snap-in inserts (rather than a pocket with inserts) which is where it differs from a pocket. Besides, not all pockets have an outer layer of PUL

I find the sewn in is really bulky compared to the snap in, prob cos you can control the inserts better with the snap in.
My sewn in takes a good half day longer to dry then my snap in.

with this weather lately i havent been able to dry mine outside but i will say mine (sewn in) takes a lot less to get dry than some of my fitteds. definitely another reason why the trial pack is a good idea.

I'm gonna buck the trend here & say that I don't like my d'lish. It has started leaking & I think the size is wrong for Liam (he's 8kg & in a med). The legs gap as does the waist even though I can't do the snaps up on the tighest setting. 
I really want to it but after major leaks I just can't bring myself to put it on him again so it sits staring at me on the change table.

Bailey the aussie website delivered D'lishes to me a couple of months ago.
Their service was great - I had quite a few conversations with them on email.
