The Bed Skirt: To Touch or Not To Touch?

Ah, the age-old question that has plagued many a decorator: should a bed skirt touch the floor, or hover delicately above it? There is no simple answer, I’m afraid, for the matter is a subjective one, informed by both aesthetics and practicality.

Some favor a more modern sensibility, preferring a crisp, tailored look. For them, a bed skirt that just grazes the floor, without bunching or puddling, is the ideal. This approach creates a clean, uncluttered line, drawing the eye along the length of the bed and lending an air of sophistication to the room.

Others, however, gravitate towards a more traditional approach, embracing the romantic charm of a bed skirt that pools gently on the floor. This technique, reminiscent of lavish draperies and overflowing vases of flowers, evokes a sense of opulence and grandeur.

Ultimately, the choice is yours, dear reader. Consider the overall ambiance you wish to create in your bedchamber. Are you drawn to the sleek lines of a contemporary dwelling, or the cozy comfort of a bygone era? Let your heart guide you, and trust your instincts.
