A bed skirt is not just a decorative piece; it also hides the space under the bed and can be integral in completing the overall look of a bedroom. However, putting on a bed skirt correctly is essential for achieving its intended aesthetic and functional benefits.
Where Does the Bed Skirt Go?
Understanding the placement of a bed skirt on your bed setup.
Placement Overview:
- Positioning: The bed skirt sits between the mattress and the box spring or bed frame, draping over the sides to the floor.
- Purpose: It conceals the bed’s foundation and any under-bed storage, offering a neat and tidy appearance.
Does a Bed Skirt Go Under the Mattress?

Installation Details:
- Under the Mattress: Typically, a bed skirt is placed under the mattress. This requires lifting the mattress to place the skirt properly.
- Secure Placement: Ensuring the skirt is evenly distributed and lies flat under the mattress for a seamless look.
Does Bed Skirt Go Over Box Spring?
The role of the box spring in the setup of a bed skirt.
Box Spring Considerations:
- Traditional Approach: In standard bed setups, the bed skirt is draped over the box spring, concealing it and providing a clean line down to the floor.
- Adjusting for Fit: Make sure the bed skirt fits snugly over the box spring and the edges align neatly with the corners and sides of the bed.
With Puffy mattresses offering a luxurious and modern sleeping experience, ensuring your bed skirt complements the aesthetic without hindering the comfort or functionality of your bed is key.
