Octavia Chenille Minimalist Blackout Thermal Drape

Understanding Curtain Fullness

When ordering custom curtains, one important factor to consider is fullness. Curtain fullness refers to the amount of extra fabric used to create a gathered, wavy, or pleated look when the curtains are closed.

At Dolcewe.com, our curtains come standard with a 1.5 times fullness. This means if your desired curtain width is 50 inches, we will actually make the curtain panel 75 inches wide (50" x 1.5 = 75"). This extra fabric allows the curtains to have an attractive gathered look without being too heavy or bulky.

Standard 1.5x Fullness (default)

• Our default fullness option, included in the base price
• Creates a tailored, gathered look that's not too full
• Ideal for a modern, streamlined style
• Perfect for smaller windows or if you prefer a neater drape

For example:

• Your desired curtain width: 50 inches
• With 1.5x fullness: 50" x 1.5 = 75" fabric width
• We will make each curtain panel 75" wide to achieve the gathered look

Upgrade to 2x Fullness

• For an upgraded price, you can opt for 2 times fullness
• Provides a lusher, fuller look with deeper pleats and waves
• Recommended for larger windows or a luxury, high-end feel
• Curtains appear more substantial and can block more light

For example:

• Your desired curtain width: 50 inches
• With 2x fullness: 50" x 2 = 100" fabric width
• We will make each curtain panel 100" wide for a richer drape

The fullness you choose depends on your style preference and window size. 1.5x fullness is versatile and modern, while 2x fullness creates an opulent statement. If you're unsure which is right for you, our design experts are happy to advise based on your specific windows and decor.

Simply provide us your desired curtain width, select your fullness option, and we'll handcraft your curtains to achieve the perfect custom look. With over 10 years specializing in custom curtains, you can trust Dolcewe.com to deliver quality and style for your windows.
