White or another zebra print would look nice. I think black would make your bed look too dark.
I would not use a ruffled bed skirt, since your cover looks sleek and smooth. red skirt, sandy color or a color that you would like to accent with.
The bedskirt shown in the photo with the black coverlet is white. It is tailored, so that’s what you should look for. Your other choices would be ruffled or pleated, but go with the tailored. It will have inverted pleats at the sides and at the foot..
Since the sheets are satin and the coverlet has a "silky" look and feel, go for something soft and with a little sheen, if possible. I would not recommend a satin bedskirt, even if you were able to find one. It would be too shiny and slippery.
Polished cotton has a sheen, if you can find one. Also a damask satin stripe cotton would work, for it would be white on white. You could still get away with your zebra sheets, even though the skirt would be subtly patterned.
If all else fails and you cannot find a cotton with a sheen, go with a soft, supple cotton, or a blend. A cotton-rayon blend might work just fine, or a cotton-polyester blend.
well i would make the bed skirt black to match the set..then i would put red accent pillows on the bed to make it pop..i think the bed skirt should not be ruffled. i love the zebra design!
answer mine please?
