Curtain Trends, Tips & Tricks
Material
Something you’ll hear a lot throughout this blog is ‘natural’. Current trends are steering towards very simple, natural fabrics and styles, that complement the current minimal yet eclectic interior trends. For curtains, this means natural cotton, linens, and wool, that have a visually appealing, natural texture. These trending fabrics also have the advantage of being durable and more high-quality than synthetic alternatives.
There’s also been a rise in the use of sheer popular curtain patterns for layering, as this allows a couple of different options for different weather and allows you to maximise natural light during certain times of the day while maintaining privacy. The simplicity of sheer white curtains can create a more bright, open, minimal space, with the option of a heavier statement curtain for your outer layer.

Patterns
Abstract and geometric patterns are making a comeback for curtain trends in 2023. Some of the most popular patterns include pastel florals and more geometric mid-century shapes and styles. It seems that many people are gravitating towards a ‘vintage’ look and some are even choosing to clash curtain patterns with other bright-coloured features in the room, like colourful couches and linens. Our prediction for the most popular curtain patterns in the next 6 months is pinstripes and gingham patterns, following on from the natural fabrics and floral patterns that are already trending.
Colours
In terms of colour, we are (once again) seeing very natural and neutral tones. This means plenty of whites, greys, and blacks, along with more earthy browns and beiges. Natural greens are still on a winning streak, particularly sage and olive if you’re looking for something a bit warmer. Even the floral and mid-century style patterns are still following this earthy trend with muted pinks or blues. This natural colour pallet ties back in with the trend of using more natural materials for your curtains. These curtain choices work well with many popular interior style trends like bohemian, beachy, and minimalist.
Tips and Tricks
Feeling inspired? When it comes to choosing the right curtains for your space, it’s important to consider a couple of things. The size of your room plays a major part in your curtain choice. If it’s a smaller space, you’ll want to make use of the natural light with sheer curtain layers and more simple, lighter colours. If you have a larger room then you may want to experiment with a busy floral or geometric pattern. Popular curtain patterns and trends are forever changing, so you must choose a style and colour that meshes well with the interior of your space. The upside to all these natural colour trends is that the understated colours work well with many different styles.
