Textured Faux Dupioni Silk Roman Shades

The slubbed texture and iridescent sheen of vintage dupioni in a clean, structured Roman shade. Custom Faux Dupioni Silk Roman shades bring formal, characterful fabric to your exact window dimensions.

Dupioni faux silk Roman shades bring a specific quality to the window — the characteristic slubbed weave that catches light from multiple angles, the iridescent sheen that shifts with viewing angle, the structured flat folds that allow the fabric's character to be displayed cleanly. In a Roman shade format, the lack of gathering means the full sheen and texture variation of the dupioni weave is always visible.

Available in custom sizes with privacy, lined and interlined, and blackout lining options. The flat Roman format suits the formal character of dupioni faux silk particularly well — the structured folds complement the fabric's architectural quality.

What makes Faux Dupioni Silk Roman shades distinctive?

Vintage Textured Faux Dupioni Silk has a slubbed weave and iridescent character — the irregular texture catches light from multiple angles and the sheen shifts with viewing angle throughout the day. In a Roman shade format, the flat folds allow the full dupioni character to be displayed without the distraction of gathering.

What style options are available?

All HPD Roman shades are available in both Relaxed and Flat Roman styles. The Relaxed style features soft, casual curves at the bottom when raised — suited to informal fabrics and rooms. The Flat style features crisp, structured horizontal folds — suited to formal rooms and fabrics like velvet and faux silk where drape and sheen are the focus.

How do I measure for a Roman shade?

Roman shades can be ordered for inside or outside mount. Inside mount requires a minimum 2¾" window depth — measure the opening at three points (top, middle, bottom for width; left, centre, right for height) and use the narrowest width and tallest height. HPD makes all necessary deductions in-house. Outside mount: add a minimum of 1½" on each side for width and at least 2–3" above the opening for height. Always measure to the nearest ⅛" using a steel tape measure.

How does the lift mechanism work and is it safe for homes with children?

HPD Roman shades operate with a plastic beaded continuous loop that raises and lowers the shade smoothly through a clutch mechanism. The shade locks at any position. Free-hanging loops pose a strangulation hazard to young children — always secure the loop to the wall using the tension device provided, keep loops out of children's reach, and position furniture away from window coverings. Check that the tension device remains securely fixed to the wall and reinstall if it comes loose.

What rooms and styles suit Faux Dupioni Silk Roman shades?

Formal dining rooms, living rooms, and master bedrooms where the iridescent character of silk-look fabric suits a clean, structured window treatment. The Roman shade format allows the fabric's sheen to be appreciated without the volume of gathered panels. Suits traditional, Art Deco, and formal contemporary interiors.
