From curved and arched windows to sloping and custom shaped designs, unusual windows can make a stunning feature in your home. Finding the right window dressing can sometimes feel like a challenge, but our made to measure blinds, curtains and shutters are designed to fit beautifully.
Here are our top tips for dressing different shaped windows and making the most out of their unique character.
Curved windows create a striking focal point, and dressing them with curtains is a great way to complement their shape.
Curtain poles can be fitted above the highest point of the curve, allowing the window to be fully covered when the curtains are closed while showcasing its shape when they’re open.
You could even choose a couple of curtain styles and sit them at different heights for a stylish yet practical finish. Floor-length curtains provide a cosy feel in the evening, while Voiles help maintain a light and airy atmosphere during the day.
Arched, shaped and custom shaped windows are impressive architectural features that create a unique focal point in any room. However, their unusual designs can make it difficult to find a window dressing that fits perfectly.
Shaped shutters are an ideal solution as they can be crafted to fit virtually any size or configuration. Designed to follow the contours of your window, they create a neat finish that complements the character of your home while offering practical light and privacy control.
“I knew that shutters would be the perfect way to frame the view when we fully opened them. I love the fact they tilt too which helps on those really bright days.”

If your room is tucked into the eaves of the roof or features angled walls, your windows may follow the slope of the space. This can make finding the right window dressing a little tricker.
Vertical blinds are a stylish and functional choice. The individual louvres can be cut to different lengths, allowing them to follow the slope of the window and create a seamless finish.
“We wanted privacy in our kitchen as it’s overlooked by other houses but also liked the idea of having our patio doors open - this is why we opted for Vertical blinds as we could control the light level and amount of privacy in the room.”
Ella Dove, Journalist and author
