Voile at a glance
What are voile wave curtains?
Voile is the lightest and most open fabric in our collection. Plenty of daylight comes through and you can still see outside well. The curtain takes away the hardness of a bare window without making the room dark.
With wave, the voile hangs in fixed waves below the track. The gliders in the track are connected by a cord. With the cord taut, they are 6 or 8 cm apart; when the curtain is opened, they slide closer together. This keeps the fabric neatly distributed, even across a wide size.
During the dayPlenty of daylight and slightly less direct view in.
In the eveningWith lights on inside, voile remains see-through.
Daylight as the starting point
Voile lets in plenty of daylight
Thanks to the open weave, plenty of daylight comes in. You can still see outside well, while the window looks less bare. That is exactly why voile is often chosen for living rooms, dining rooms and other rooms where you want to keep the light.
A white or ecru voile looks very light. Taupe, brown, anthracite and black give the waves more definition. Because the fabric is open woven, even a dark colour remains clearly different from a dense curtain.
See-through and privacy
Different during the day than in the evening
When it is lighter outside than inside, voile softens the direct view in. Still, it remains an open fabric: anyone standing close to the window or looking carefully can still see shapes.
In the evening, when the lights are on inside and it is dark outside, that changes noticeably. People, movement and furniture are then much more visible. If you want more privacy in the evening, combine voile with a second, denser curtain.

Voile and fine fabric textures
This voile is made of 100% polyester. The open weave lets plenty of light through and is particularly visible against the light. As a result, the fabric shows a lot of detail close up, while it hangs calmly in front of the window from a distance.
The light fabric follows the wave shape easily. The weighted hem tape at the bottom gives the bottom edge extra weight and keeps the finish calm.
Vitrage or voile?
In Dutch this fabric is called vitrage; voile is the common name for a very fine, supple sheer fabric. In English we simply call our collection voile. The fabric on this page is open woven, 100% polyester and available in 10 colours.

Voile wave curtains: 6 or 8 cm?
With 6 cm, the gliders in the track are closer together. This gives you more, finer waves over the same width. With 8 cm, the gliders are further apart and the waves become wider.
The 6 or 8 cm is the distance between the gliders in the track. So it is not the depth of the wave. On the separate choosing guide, we also show how much space both versions need at the track.

Floor to ceiling and seamless
Floor to ceiling voile without vertical seams
The fabric is 320 cm wide on the roll. This allows us to make a voile up to a maximum finished drop of 305 cm from one piece. With an open, light fabric that is especially attractive, because a vertical stitched seam would stand out more against the light. This gives you a seamless voile up to that drop.
Even with wide windows, the fabric stays in one piece. Online you can order up to 780–798 cm wide, depending on the wave and configuration; even wider made to measure curtains are possible on request.

Voile wave curtains for large windows and sliding doors
With large windows you often want a curtain, but not the feeling that all the glass disappears. Voile lets plenty of light through and stays airy even across a large width.
Online we make this voile up to 780–798 cm wide, depending on the wave and configuration. If you have a sliding door, think in advance about which side the curtain should open to and where the fabric can hang when you draw it back. For the exact measurements, use our separate measuring instructions.

The bottom edge
Always finished with weighted hem tape
With this voile, we use weighted hem tape as standard. The weighting cord runs along the bottom of the fabric and gives the light voile extra weight, without a wide hem being visible.
This keeps the bottom edge subtle and helps the fabric fall neatly. Especially with voile, this is a detail you notice both close up and in the overall look.

Light during the day, privacy when you want it
Combining voile with a second curtain
Voile is intended for light and an open look. If you want more privacy in the evening or want to be able to darken a room, you can combine the voile with an opaque curtain, dim out or blackout on a second track.
During the day the voile can stay closed and the room stays light. In the evening you only close the second layer. This is particularly practical in a living room or bedroom where you want light during the day and need more privacy or darkening later.

Even dark stays airy
Anthracite, black or blue grey give more contrast
A dark voile stands out more in front of the window, but the open weave remains visible. This gives you more contrast in the waves without the curtain taking on the look of a dense fabric.
How a colour ultimately looks depends strongly on the daylight, your window frames, floor and wall colour. That is why the free samples are especially useful here.

Frequently asked questions
What people often want to know about voile
Still unsure about privacy, drop, 6 or 8 cm wave or combining with a second curtain? Below are the answers to the questions that matter most with voile.
What is voile wave?
Voile is our most open, light fabric category. Wave is the way the fabric hangs in even waves below the track.
Does voile give privacy during the day?
Voile softens the direct view in during the day when it is lighter outside than inside. It remains an open fabric, though, so voile does not give complete privacy.
Can people see in through voile in the evening?
Yes. When it is dark outside and the lights are on inside, shapes, people and furniture are much more visible. If you want more privacy then, combine voile with a denser curtain.
What is the maximum drop?
This fabric is 320 cm high as a floor to ceiling fabric. We make the curtain seamless up to a maximum finished drop of 305 cm.
Should I choose a 6 or 8 cm wave?
With 6 cm, the gliders are closer together and you get more, finer waves. With 8 cm, the gliders are further apart and the waves become wider. Which choice looks best depends on your window, the fabric and the space available at the track.
Why is this voile made with weighted hem tape?
The weighted hem tape gives the light fabric extra weight at the bottom. As a result, the bottom edge stays subtle and no wide hem needs to be visible.
How wide can I order voile wave curtains?
6 cm wave: 7980 mm (1 panel) or 7800 mm (2 panels). 8 cm wave: 7920 mm (1 panel) or 7840 mm (2 panels). Wider is possible on request.
Can voile be combined with blackout or dim out?
Yes. Voile works beautifully as a light first layer. A second, denser curtain gives more privacy in the evening and can also darken the room.
