Perfectly Paired Patterns
Patterns are a fantastic addition to any drapery. Of course, this weighs heavily on your personal style. If you find yourself gravitating towards paisley, damask, or floral details, this is one of the drapery trends that you’ll have no problem embracing.
Lovely Details
Don’t forget about the small details such as hardware. Popular finishes are matte black, gold, natural brass and oil-rubbed bronze. The features that can be customized are headers, curtain rods, rings, grommets, and drapery hooks.
The drapery header consists of the top of the draperies where the fabric is finished in a particular style and then attached to the curtain rod. The most popular way to finish the top is with pinch pleat styling. Grommets are next, followed by ripple-fold draperies. Ripple-fold draperies attach on a special track to maintain the fabric ripple consistently. Because of the track, the hardware is out of sight.
Layers Upon Layers
There is something about layering draperies that everyone can get onboard with. Different colors, textures, and weights mesh so effortlessly and with a sophisticated grace.
Linen and cotton fabrics, paired with a woven shade, is one of the drapery trends we are wild about. The softness about the linen or cotton creates an airy calmness around the window with the sturdy, yet organic movement of the shades. Both are light filtering window coverings and aesthetically pleasing.
Drapery Trends in Unexpected Places
In interior design, it’s always a skill to know the “rules.” It’s another skill to then break them. There are many places draperies are not commonly seen, but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be! Your primary bathroom, the luxury walk-in closet, or the tucked away laundry room. These are places that would look amazing with some added drapery.
Are you more of a neutral or splash of colour person? You definitely know yourself the best. It’s important to look through photos for inspiration to know what would be the best fit.
