A 90” round table cloth is generally used on tables measuring two
and a half feet in diameter and covers to the floor. A table this

A banquet table that is six feet in length will be covered to the
floor by a cloth measuring 90” x 132.”
A banquet table that is eight feet in length will be covered to the
floor by a cloth measuring 90” x 156.”
Banquet tables that are either a six or eight feet in length can be
“topped” with a 60” x 120” cloth, meaning the cloth simply covers
the tabletop. In this case, most people choose to add a table skirt
for a more finished look.
Skirting can be used to surround the circumference of a round table,
cover all sides of a rectangular or square table, or any variable
number of sides. What you are planning to use the table for, is most
often what determines how much skirting you will need.
