Heavy Fabrics
The weight of the fabric will determine how well the curtains hang. A medium-weight fabric will usually drape better, but there are some situations where heavy fabrics are a better choice. Velvet, silk and heavy damask fabrics are ideal for keeping out the cold and insulating a room in winter. They drape well and add a luxurious and opulent look to your windows. They also block sound and light, especially if they’re lined. However, most are dry clean only, so they’ll be costlier to maintain.
Lighter Fabrics
Cotton, linen and polyester fabrics are a popular choice because of the huge range of colours and patterns. They are mostly machine washable and easy care, so they’re not as costly as some heavier fabrics, and they drape well. If you’re using these fabrics on a window that receives a lot of sun, it might be wise to add a lining to stop them from fading, and insulate the room in the heat of the day.
