A few years ago, the window treatment was viewed as relatively too much for an interior and used mostly for its functional purpose. Well, it is not a surprise since minimalism was roaring at that time. Now that both designers and homeowners direct their attention toward daring solutions inspired by the opposite of minimalism, maximalism, the window treatment becomes quite a thing. Although we are not ready yet to embrace the full beauty and richness of such a course, we certainly are ready for new bursts of color and pattern to cheer up the long period prevailed by neutral design solutions. 

According to professionals in the field, people start celebrating the appeal of curtains and blinds and view them as a design feature with lots to offer to a living room, bedroom, or any room you want. The upcoming season definitely relies on new sparkles you have never seen before. Let’s find out the latest fabrics, patterns, colors, designs, and styles for the window treatment in 2023!

Light and Dusty Colors

Light, a bit dusty, yet most importantly warm – these are the features of the upcoming curtain colors in 2023. People want vivacity, comfort, and authenticity, and the suggested ivory, powder peach, soothing blue, and foggy pink fully interpret the desired effect. By the way, dusty pink is a new favorite with its firm sense of familiarity and close-to-heart warmth. 

Traditional Patterns

Although the new season allows bolder patterns to find their way on the list of trends, designers and homeowners are not yet ready to fully embrace them. But there is always a “still”. Experts suggest that connoisseurs of true Traditional designs can surely opt for rich-patterned drapes as long as they don’t stand out much, preserve the overall color code, and most of all, celebrate the beauty of traditional design solutions.

Breezy Sheer Drapes

The translucent sheer curtains with long and clean panels are an irresistible match for contemporary design projects, and they are definitely a long-lasting trend. They sleekly cover the window, completing the design yet not overloading it. They are a great choice for large-scale windows and bear a charming ultra-modern air, particularly when combined with clean-lined furniture and decluttered layouts. 

Darkening Panels

Blackout curtains have been trending for a few years, and they proudly pass the threshold into the window treatment trends in 2023. They are the kind of curtains that equal practicality with style due to their blackout feature that instantly isolates the room in terms of light, sound, and temperature and the ability to add much-needed texture to overly simplified designs. 

Pastel Floral

Last season’s concept of love for nature passed to this year’s trends as well. The romantic and familiar floral patterns hold the leading role and firmly share their love for soft, vivacious, and natural. The important thing here is that those prints have to be accompanied by pastel shades so that the curtains don’t look like they’re from another century but right on the subject – contemporary and with taste. 

Boho Tassels

Naturally textured drapes with playful tassels are mainstream this season. Although accepted specifically by Bohemian interiors, they are a pretty good design fit for other styles as well. They are more of an expression of your creativity and imagination in contrast with the basic daily routine. In a few words, this is another trend that tries to bring more charm to your house through bold textiles. 

Distinctive Panels

If you really fancy a contrast, and even one to suit the most contemporary rooms, this trend is all yours – bold-colored curtains on a purely neutral background. Since among the most popular colors in 2023 are mustard orange, deep green, and burgundy, we suggest you apply them to clean-lined and voluminous panels.

Roman Blinds

Trends come and go, but the Roman blinds seem to stay. They are a perfect alternative to curtains if all you want is to ensure privacy, although they bear a stylish effect as well, particularly if made of natural materials. Designers usually refer to this solution in small spaces since they don’t take space and reliably serve their purpose.

Roller Blinds

This one works pretty much like the previous option, yet it fits better full-length windows. The thing is that large-scale windows with open landscapes to decorate the interior are a must today, and it simply needs a window treatment to serve the purpose. This is how the roller blinds trends emerged.

Recess Curtain Track

Speaking of window treatment, we cannot help but mention the curtain rods. The traditional rods, in their simplest form, are an all-time favorite, giving them green light for this season. Still, designers recommend opting for recess curtain tracks, which are fixed in the ceiling and are designed to be invisible. This option directs all attention to the main elements – the curtains.
