I got into one heck of an argument trying to explain that "standard" size no long applies to bed covers. With the great heights of some beds, not to mention how much fall each of us prefers------------there is no set answer.

A twin bed is 39" wide, double 54", queen usually about "60 and king over72". Use that as your starting point. Then decide how much fall is needed for the particular bed in question.
