This comforter set appearance is much better than what is pictured. The stitching on the comforter adds a very nice, almost hand sewn addition. I think it would better without the satin section and the same material used allover. I've learned to get "the look" that is shown online, I need to order a king set for my queen bed. It still fits the bed very nicely (only if you're not going to use the dust ruffle) and you have plenty of coverage so you're not struggling with your spouse to obtain your fair share of warmth. My friends have given several compliments and asked "where did you purchase that?" Hopefully Wayfair has a couple new customers. Oh! I also love the color scheme. It appears to be very high end.
