Dark curtains vs light curtains: Russells Curtains & Blinds
Let’s run through a few pros and cons of dark vs light coloured curtain fabric.
Light curtain benefits
A timeless look! Light coloured curtains, especially whites and neutrals, will never go (far) out of style.
Increase how big a space feels with lighter curtains.
Light coloured curtains are more likely to be made of lightweight curtain fabrics, which fall and flow beautifully.
Lighter colours are easily dyed a different colour should you want an easy way to change it up in future.
Things to consider:
More likely to show up any dirt, dust or stains they get so perhaps better in rooms without high traffic.

Dark curtain benefits
Dark coloured curtains work very well in spacious interiors or high-ceilinged rooms to visually shrink the space and give it a cozier vibe. Use them to anchor the space without overwhelming the setting; repeat the colour of the curtains somewhere else in the room so they don’t look out of place.
Strike a balance between relaxing and romantic.
Dark curtains lend a sense of drama, contrast and elegance to a room and, when used right, can be very inviting.
Dark curtains don’t show dirt and dust like light coloured curtains will so a good choice for high traffic areas (if the size is right).
