This Simple&Opulence bed skirt is made from 100% Belgian linen for the drop, which provides a natural, matte texture and excellent breathability. Unlike synthetic microfiber, linen is naturally anti-static and offers a high level of durability. The 14-inch drop is paired with a 100% cotton platform. Using cotton for the center section is a practical choice because it provides more friction than linen, helping to keep the skirt from sliding out of place under the mattress.
Linen is a natural fiber and does not have the elasticity of synthetics, so any deep wrinkles or snags can be more difficult to remove. The fabric is stone-washed during manufacturing to pre-shrink it, which helps ensure the 14-inch drop remains consistent after you wash it at home. It arrives with heavy creases due to shipping; for the best appearance, a high-heat steam iron is usually required before you put it on the bed.
For a softer, plush feel that focuses on the top of the mattress rather than the frame, the ExceptionalSheets Bamboo Mattress Pad offers a complementary bed-fitting solution.
