For regular dust removal, use a feather duster or vacuum with a soft brush attachment.
For small stains, gently scrub the area with a toothbrush dipped in foam cleaner or mild soap solution (following the direction of the weave). Wipe clean with a damp cloth and let air dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area.
Avoid direct sunlight or heat when drying.
Striped Blackout Roman Shades That Transform Your Room
Let's be honest: windows are usually the most neglected part of a room. You slap something up for privacy and forget about it. But these striped blackout roman shades change the entire vibe of your space instantly. The vertical stripes play a visual trick that makes your ceilings look higher and your room feel bigger (and who doesn't want that?).
It’s that effortless "Coastal Grandmother" or "Quiet Luxury" aesthetic that designers charge thousands to create. You get the warmth of linen, the clean lines of a custom fit, and a look that says you definitely have your life together.
Why Custom Linen Roman Shades Beat Pure Linen
We all love the look of pure linen, but the reality? It’s a wrinkly nightmare that creates dust. We fixed that. The Milano collection uses a premium linen blend that captures that gorgeous, organic texture you crave but stays crisp and durable.
Plus, let's talk about the "Flat Fold" design. When you raise these custom linen roman shades, they stack neatly into perfect horizontal pleats. No bunching, no messy fabric—just clean architectural lines that look good even when they're all the way up.
Finally, Striped Blackout Roman Shades That Actually Block Light
Most decorative shades are just that—decorative. They look cute but let the streetlights pour in at 2 AM. If you value your sleep (or have kids who refuse to nap when it's bright out), you need the blackout lining option.
These block 99% of incoming light. It's not just about darkness, though—it's about temperature control. The thermal insulation keeps your room cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. You're basically saving money on energy bills just by dressing your windows better.
Fits Your Windows Like a Tailored Suit
There is nothing—and I mean nothing—worse than that awkward 2-inch gap on the side of a store-bought shade. It ruins the privacy and looks cheap. Because these are custom striped roman shades, they are made to your exact measurements (down to the 1/8th inch).
Whether you have a giant picture window or a weirdly narrow side window, we ensure a gap-free, professional fit. It’s the difference between buying off the rack and getting bespoke tailoring. Once you see the difference, you can't go back.

Really love this blind! We have the same in our kitchen and the quality is great. Love that it doesn’t need a cord to open/close it!
These are excellent quality. I shortened the width by 1/2” to allow for installation. I wish I ordered an inch longer than the window length. They were very easy to install except, I recommend shortening the screws for the middle mounts on larger curtains as they rub on the mechanism. Overall extremely happy with the experience and the quality.
I was a bit worried about finding shades that worked with the unique layout of our play area, but these fit perfectly into the window frames. Total game changer! My little one is also a huge fan—she finds them so easy to use.
Easy installation and they instantly change the whole vibe of the bedrooms! The colors are pretty much spot on when compared to online photos. I love that they’re blackout and are truly blackout. They’ve been helping my kids sleep in longer! They are easy to put up and pull down. All around great experience and product!
Beautiful! They are easy to install and are truly blackout. They have helped my kids both sleep in longer! Functional and beautiful; it’s a yes in my book!
I chose these shades in Blueberry for our snug, and they’ve completely transformed the space. The fabric quality is beautiful, and the stripe adds subtle interest without overpowering the room. The cordless design keeps everything looking clean and uncluttered, which was really important to me. They’re easy to use and give a much more streamlined finish compared to traditional cords.
What made the biggest difference, though, was the way they softened the light. The room immediately felt warmer and more settled once they were installed. They’ve given the space a much more finished, intentional feel. A great option if you’re looking to elevate a room with something that feels considered and well made.
Absolutely love my new Milano shades! The custom sizing is spot on and it looks like it was professionally installed. The stripes are subtle but add the perfect amount of texture to my space. It blocks light just right and makes the whole room feel much more put together. So glad I went with these!
The flat fold style looks so tailored, and the blueberry stripe brings in a quiet touch of color — it makes the whole room feel more intentional. Very happy with this choice.
The curtains look fantastic - however the mounting hardware rubs against the rotating rod that brings the curtains up and down, so you can not mount them fully flush to the top of the window if you want them to work properly.
The bolt on the hardware needs to be shortened to avoid this
We ordered custom measurements for our big living room window and couldn 't be happier. Installation was straightforward, the cordless mechanism works like a charm, and every guest comments on how elegant the shades look. The linen-blend fabric filters light beautifully without blocking it completely, so you get privacy without a cave-dark feel.
I wanted something that blends pattern and simplicity — this shade delivers. The fabric feels durable yet elegant, and the cordless operation is just the polish I was hoping for.
We already had another linen-blend striped fabric (I think it's called Renee) as curtains in our living room, so adding the Milano Roman shade to the adjacent window felt like the perfect match. The continuity is seamless, and the shade folds look so crisp.
I chose the Milano striped shade for our sunroom, and wow — the stripes introduce just the right visual interest without overpowering the space. The linen blend gives it that soft texture, and when sunlight filters through, the stripes dance gently on the walls. It pulls up beautifully and feels so refined.

FAQ
I'm not handy—can I actually install these myself?
Honest answer: You don't need to be a pro. If you can use a drill and a measuring tape, you’ve got this. We include all the hardware you need for the installation. Most customers tell us it takes about 15-20 minutes per window once they get the hang of it. It’s way easier than assembling IKEA furniture, promise.
Do the blackout liners actually block the light?
Oh, they work. If you upgrade to the blackout lining, you're looking at blocking about 99% of incoming light. These striped blackout roman shades are a game-changer for nurseries, day sleepers, or media rooms where you want total darkness. Plus, that extra layer adds serious thermal insulation, helping keep your room cooler in the summer.
Are these safe for kids and pets?
100%. If you have little ones or furry friends running around, definitely go with the Cordless or motorized roman shades option. It eliminates those dangling cords that stress parents out, giving you a sleek, modern look and total peace of mind.
Can I see the fabric before I buy?
Absolutely! In fact, I insist you do. Lighting in your home changes everything. We recommend ordering swatches of our custom linen roman shades to hold up against your wall. You want to be sure that the stripe color and linen texture vibe perfectly with your decor before you commit.
Is the fabric flimsy or see-through?
Not at all. This isn't that shiny, cheap-feeling polyester you find at big-box stores. It's a premium linen blend that has real weight and texture to it. The blend is actually a huge plus—it gives you that breezy, coastal linen look but with better durability and wrinkle resistance. It hangs beautifully right out of the box.
How do I clean them if they get dusty?
Maintenance is super low-key. For regular upkeep, just use the soft brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner to keep dust away. If you encounter a spot or stain, please do not wash, machine wash, or dry clean them. Instead, use a toothbrush with a bit of foam cleaner or mild soapy water to gently spot clean, then let them air dry naturally. This keeps the linen blend fabric looking crisp and prevents any shrinkage or damage.
