Dress Curtains

Dress curtains, or false curtains, are a decorative feature used to soften and frame a window. In conjunction to adding colour, texture and design to enhance an interior scheme.

Made to measure dress curtains are an ideal solution where full curtains are not required, or when used in combination with voile curtains or interior blinds.

Any fabric can be used to make this type of curtain, but they are particularly suited to heavier weight fabrics. These give the illusion of a stacked back standard sized curtain.

  • The curtains are non-functional, i.e. they do not close across the window. With this in mind however, their size, both width and height, should be proportional to the window at which they are hung.
  • Patterned fabrics where too much of the colour or design would be over powering. This makes an ideal dress curtain adding personality to an interior scheme
  • A plain dress curtain can add a simple elegance to a room, bringing a relaxed softness and homely feel to a scheme.
  • The curtains are an ideal way to hide ugly window frames, disguise the size or shape of unusual windows. They can also bring harmony to a room with varying window types.

Most commonly used with interiors blinds, this combination of style and functionality makes dress curtains an ideal solution. This enables us to suit all interiors types.

Frequently asked questions about made to measure Dress Curtains

These curtains are perfect on their own when full width curtains are not required but a window frame needs softening or disguising.

When used in conjunction with other window treatments, dress curtains give the ability to soften the look and feel of the window and coordinate with other elements in an interior scheme.

These are false curtains and do not fully cover a window, however they are perfect for use alongside blackout interior blinds, for example Roller blinds or Perfect Fit blinds, to help provide the level of darkness required.

We do not recommend using strong colours in sun filled rooms as they will be prone to fade quicker than neutral colours, however by combining them with sun screen blinds you can protect them from the harsher effects of the sun.

Because of the lack of pleating, the Perfect Wave finish is particularly suitable for large patterns as the smooth finish of the final curtain shows off a large pattern repeat.

Having a dress curtain can provide an economic alternative to full curtains, or because they only require a limited amount of fabric, create an opportunity to use an expensive fabric that would otherwise be out of budget.
