Striped & Pattern Roman Shades add visual interest and dimension to your windows while maintaining a clean, tailored look. Designed to work well in a variety of spaces, they offer a decorative touch with everyday functionality. They are designed in a plain flat fold style and come standard with a privacy liner for enhanced light control and added privacy. Optional blackout liners are also available. Both privacy and blackout liners are white in color and positioned on the back of the shade.
For a seamless look, shades may be ordered in a seamless fold style featuring a smooth, tailored appearance with no horizontal seams. Discreet tack stitches are used in construction and may be visible on the shade, which can result in small pinholes. Valances are included on outside mount shades with continuous cord loop or motorized lift systems, but are not included on cordless lift systems or inside mount continuous cord loop shades.
Adding a blackout liner to the standard plain fold style may result in light seepage through stitch perforations; selecting an alternate fold style is recommended to minimize this. Fabric Roman Shades over 48" wide will include a visible seam due to fabric width limitations. For outside mount shades with a continuous cord loop lift, the headrail will measure 1" wider than the ordered width to ensure proper coverage and functionality. The bottom pleat size will vary between 3 1/4" and 9 1/8" depending on the finished shade height. For a uniform appearance when multiple shades are used in the same room, we recommend ordering the same height when window measurements vary by 1"–2".
Please Note: Due to packaging and shipping, soft treatments may arrive with wrinkles; allow shades to hang for several days so the fabric can naturally relax. Light steaming is recommended for stubborn wrinkles.

Ribbon banding is a decorative and functional fabric trim applied vertically along the edges and horizontally at the bottom of Roman shades to add structure, definition, and visual interest. Typically sewn onto the face of the shade, ribbon banding can create bold stripes, frame the edges, or highlight specific sections of the fabric, giving a custom, tailored look. In addition to enhancing the overall design, ribbon banding can subtly conceal stitch lines and reinforce areas where the shade folds, helping maintain crisp, even pleats as the shade is raised and lowered.
This lift option has a looping lift cord adjacent to the shade. The fabric/material is narrower on the control side allowing the control to hang to the side without interfering with the lift of the shade. Shades with Continuous Cord Loop option may have a light gap on black-out shades.
