Mattress Thickness
-
A deep pillow-top mattress will require a comforter on the larger end of the range to allow for a longer drape over the sides of the mattress.
Fill Type
-
A fluffier comforter will require a few extra inches to account for the loft of the filling. A queen or full size down comforter is about 90 by 98 inches, while a king down comforter measures about 98 by 108 inches.
Bed Skirt Significance
-
Comforters drape a few inches below the top mattress, while a bed skirt covers the box spring. To avoid the need for a bed skirt on the box spring, choose a bedspread that reaches the floor.
