What is the difference between draperies and curtains? Curtains are usually not lined and draperies are always lined. Curtains have the same fabric on the front as on the back. Light and airy unlined fabric is popular. Draperies have decorative fabric on the front and fabric lining on the back. Draperies serve as a backdrop when drawn closed and a view takes there place when they are open. Draperies help bring in elegance and color and help you establish a style you want to incorporate in your space.
Draperies are generally hanging cloth used as a blind especially for a window. With formal furniture, curtains are out of place; and a reasonable volume of drapery of any kind usually conforms to good taste - the proper quantum, as well as the proper adjustment, depending upon the character of the general effect.
