Frequently asked questions

FAQ about Curtain fabrics

How much curtain fabric do I need per window?

For curtains with a beautiful drape, allow 2 to 2.5 times the width of the window in fabric. For a 2-metre wide window you will order 4 to 5 metres of curtain fabric. For designs with a pattern repeat, add extra metres so the patterns align neatly at the seams.

What is the difference between light-filtering and blackout curtain fabric?

Light-filtering curtain fabric such as linen, voile or chiffon diffuses daylight and creates a soft atmosphere during the day. Blackout curtain fabric is densely woven or has a blackout coating and blocks almost all light — ideal for bedrooms or media rooms.

Can I order a sample of the curtain fabric?

Yes. You can request a sample on almost every product page. This lets you assess the drape, how the colour reacts to your own light and how the texture feels in your own interior. Samples are available for a fee.

Which curtain fabric is suitable for the bedroom?

For the bedroom, choose a heavy, densely woven curtain fabric or a fabric with blackout lining. Velvet, jacquard and heavy linen blends work beautifully. Combine with a light voile layer for daytime flexibility if you wish.

How do I care for luxury curtain fabric?

Most designer curtain fabrics are best cleaned professionally at a dry cleaner. The label and the product page provide the specific care advice for each fabric. Regular light shaking or gentle vacuuming significantly extends the lifespan.
