It fit the bill for its light, striped design but tore immediately and significantly once on the bed.  This is because the fabric is so weak that the bedskirt couldn't stand any adjustment once the mattress was on top.  It was a hassle to replace because the queen size mattress had to be totally taken off again.  So it's worth getting a higher quality version of this design.  Too bad, because Laura Ashley used to represent a really good make.
