The purpose of a bed skirt is to give a stylish appearance to a bed without exposing the sides of the box spring or any space under the bed that may be used for storage.
The bed sits on a set of simple risers to create space for storage underneath. It's a well-known dorm-room trick, Stewart says. The custom bed skirt, in a spirited pattern that matches the headboard, keeps the storage out of sight.
