A bed skirt comprising:
- a single panel having four sides and made of a coarse woven or non-woven fabric;
- and
- six panels made of a fine woven fabric, wherein the six panels comprise:
- three border panels each stitched to a respective side of the single panel along border seams;

A bed skirt comprising:
- a platform section sized to correspond with a top surface of a bed base, the platform section including a main panel, a first longitudinal panel, a second longitudinal panel and a lateral panel, wherein the first longitudinal panel is stitched to a first longitudinal edge of the main panel along a first longitudinal panel seam, the second longitudinal panel is stitched to a second longitudinal edge of the main panel along a second longitudinal panel seam and the lateral panel is stitched to a first lateral edge of the main panel along a lateral panel seam so that the first longitudinal panel, the lateral panel and the second longitudinal panel form a border around a portion of the main panel;
- a first skirt section stitched to the first longitudinal panel along a first longitudinal skirt seam that aligns with a first longitudinal top edge of the bed base and drops from the first longitudinal skirt seam to a floor;
- a second skirt section stitched to the second longitudinal panel along a second longitudinal skirt seam that aligns with a second longitudinal top edge of the bed base and drops from the second longitudinal skirt seam to the floor;
- and
- a third skirt section stitched to the lateral longitudinal panel along a lateral skirt seam that aligns with a lateral top edge of a foot of the bed base and drops from the lateral skirt seam to the floor;
- and
- wherein the first skirt section, the first longitudinal panel, the second skirt section, the second longitudinal panel, the lateral skirt section and the lateral panel are made from the same fabric.
