Fabric Information
The Taupe Nightlife is woven from a 66% Polyester and 34% Cotton blend, achieving a fabric character that sits between the softness of a cotton curtain and the performance durability of a polyester weave. At 357 GSM, the fabric is substantial without being stiff --- it drapes with a natural, relaxed composure. The cotton component gives it a slightly matte, breathable surface. The blackout construction is integrated into the fabric structure itself, so light block is consistent across the full panel with no backing layer that can separate or bubble over time. Tested to 40,000 Martindale rubs, it is built for long-term everyday use. Machine wash at 40°C on a normal cycle, line dry, and low iron if needed.
Integrated blackout construction --- no separate backing layer
40,000 Martindale rub test --- durable, everyday fabric
Machine washable at 40°C --- simple home care
Low iron --- no specialist pressing required
Multiple top type options --- Grommet, Tab Top, Rod Pocket, Sleeve Top
Available in a range of coordinating neutrals across the Nightlife collection
Frequently Asked Questions
Taupe sits right at the intersection of grey and brown — it is a warm, grounded neutral that reads differently depending on your lighting. In natural light it leans beige-brown; in cooler artificial light it can read closer to grey. This versatility is exactly why it works across so many interior schemes.
The 34% Cotton content gives the Nightlife a soft, breathable surface that many customers with synthetic fabric sensitivities find more comfortable than 100% polyester alternatives. If you have specific sensitivities, we recommend requesting a fabric sample before ordering.
Yes. Taupe is a background neutral — it lets patterned and textured elements in the room come forward rather than competing with them. It is deliberately understated so that other design choices can breathe.
Both options thread onto a rod, but a Rod Pocket creates a ruffled header above the rod and is designed for rods that stay fixed in place. A Sleeve Top sits flush with the rod and gives a cleaner, more contemporary header. Choose based on your aesthetic preference.
No. The blackout function in the Nightlife is integrated into the weave structure rather than added as a separate backing, so there is no visible thickness change or stiff backing layer — the fabric looks and feels like a single, unified material.
Yes — the Nightlife is an excellent choice for rental properties. It is machine washable, durable at 40,000 Martindale, and the versatile Taupe colourway will suit a wide range of tenant preferences and furniture configurations.
Each panel is 50 inches wide. For wider windows, you increase the number of panels rather than the panel width. Use 1.5 to 2 times your window width for a gathered look, then divide by 50 to find the number of panels needed.
Yes. The face of the fabric is the finished, colour-presented side that faces the room. The back is slightly different in appearance but both sides are clean and considered — the integrated blackout construction means there is no obvious backing layer visible from the reverse.
Yes. Because the curtain is custom made to your exact drop length, it can be manufactured for very long drops. Measure from the top of your rod straight down to your desired endpoint and provide that measurement when ordering.
Use a low heat iron setting. Iron on the reverse of the fabric if possible. Do not use a very hot iron or steam directly on the face, as excessive heat can affect the fabric surface. Ironing should only be needed for any stubborn creases after drying.
