Which fabric should you choose?
- Wedding & Décor Drape — 120gsm (Poly Satin) — A satin weave that catches light along its length — the decorator's fabric.
- Metallic Décor Satin — 130gsm (Silver-Coated) — A metallic-coated satin that reads as brushed silver until the light moves across it.
Key advantages
- One product, 2 fabric specifications — compare and choose without leaving the page
- Fluid drape that falls into soft natural folds rather than hanging stiff
- Lustrous face picks up highlights beautifully under warm and directional lighting
- Dye-sublimated colour reads deep and saturated against the sheen
- Sews readily into swags, drapes, runners and gathered treatments
How ordering works
- Send your artwork — Upload print-ready artwork at any stage — we check scale, resolution and bleed before anything goes to press and come back to you if something needs adjusting.
- Made to your size — Every panel is cut and finished to your dimensions. Tell us the finished size you need and how it is being fixed, and we will allow for hems and fixings correctly.
- Printed by dye-sublimation — Colour is transferred into the polyester fibre under heat, so the image becomes part of the cloth rather than a layer sitting on top of it.
- Finished and shipped — Hems, eyelets, pole pockets, silicone edge and other finishing are applied before your order is folded, boxed and dispatched worldwide.
