A queen-size lilac comforter offers a serene and restful feel to your midsize bed. If you're in love with the pretty shade of lilac, you can find many comforter styles that will indulge your senses and help to create a bedroom that takes you away from the stress of the day. You'll find many designs specifically with a lilac flower motif, as well as various designs in lovely lilac colors.
Choosing a Lilac Comforter in a Queen Size
Lilac, like most colors, comes in various shades. This lovely purple hue has a slightly inky undertone which gives it a classy and restful feel. In its darkest shades, lilac resembles a dark, blue-toned purple, while in its lightest shades, this color borders on a barely-there grey-toned pale purple.
While twin size lilac bedspreads are sometimes spattered with girly prints and designed for young girls' bedding, queen sized comforters in this color are typically designed in somewhat more mature styles, making them ideal for older girls, teens, and women. Unlike many purple shades that have more red or pink undertones, a lilac queen comforter can also be a good choice for couples since some lilac shades border more on the blue or grey sides.
When choosing a lilac comforter, there are many accent colors that can be used in your décor scheme, including both cool neutrals like grey and taupe, and warmer neutrals like ivory and beige. In nature, lilac flowers most commonly appear as lilac, lavender, white, pink, blue, yellow and purple, so these shades are natural to use in completing bedroom décor with a lilac comforter. Green and various purple shades are also often paired together in comforter designs, and can also be excellent accent colors.
