What is the best fabric for curtains?

The best curtain fabric depends on how you want the room to feel and function. Lightweight fabrics such as linen blends and sheers are ideal for soft light filtering and relaxed interiors, while heavier curtain fabrics provide greater privacy, insulation and light control. At No Chintz, our curated range includes fabrics suitable for everything from sheer curtains to full drapery, with options to suit both contemporary and classic homes.

Can I buy curtain fabric by the metre?

Yes. No Chintz offers a wide selection of curtain fabric by the metre, allowing you to create custom curtains that suit your exact window sizes and design preferences. We also offer fabric swatches so you can see colours, textures and drape in your own space before committing.

How do I choose the right curtain fabric for my home?

Choosing the right curtain fabric involves considering light control, privacy, window size, room function and existing furnishings. Fabric weight, texture and colour all influence how curtains hang and how a room feels. Our experienced team can guide you through these decisions to ensure your curtain fabric complements your interior and lifestyle.
