Choosing Sheers and Dress Curtains Together
Look beyond matching colours. Light requirements, texture, drape and the character of the room determine how sheers and dress curtains work together.
Light and privacy
Plan a sheer layer that softens daylight alongside the level of evening privacy required from the dress curtains.
Colour and pattern
Compare samples together in the room’s light. Consider their relationship with furniture and finishes rather than viewing each fabric in isolation.
Texture, pleats and drape
Assess how the fabrics hang and how their headings affect fullness. Review the combined arrangement before confirming measurements.
