Graber Tailored Roman Shades
Decorative fabric and elegant folds for a tailored finish. Choose from Classic Flat, Looped, Relaxed, Balloon or Seamless styles to suit your room. We help you pair the right fabric with your ideal operating setup.
Five distinct face styles.
Classic Flat, Looped, Relaxed, Balloon and Seamless offer unique ways to highlight your chosen fabric. Select the profile that best complements your home to ensure the final shade looks exactly as you intended.
Pair the layers deliberately.
Tailored Roman shades work beautifully alone or layered with drapery. Consider how the face fabric, lining and available window space interact to create the perfect balance of light control and elegant privacy.
Selection details
Let the fabric and the fold work together.
Tailored Roman shades are perfect for those who want a decorative, fabric-led finish. Whether you choose a bold print or a soft texture, we help you select the style that brings your vision to life.
The right profile ensures your fabric gathers gracefully and looks beautiful in your home.
- 01
Choose the visible shape first
Select the lower edge and face profile that suits your style. Whether you prefer the clean lines of a Classic Flat or the soft curves of a Relaxed style, the right shape defines the room.
- 02
Review the fabric as a finished treatment
Check samples against your paint and upholstery. Consider how the pattern scale sits within the folds and confirm your lining needs to ensure the right level of privacy and light filtering for your space.
- 03
Coordinate operation and surrounding layers
A beautiful shade must also be easy to use. Discuss the lift mechanism and how the shade fits with any existing drapery or hardware to ensure everything works smoothly and looks clean once installed.
A closer look
Choose the named style, not just a Roman label.
Each face profile transforms your textile into a unique design feature. Comparing actual style examples ensures you choose the aesthetic that best reflects your vision for the room.

Classic Flat provides clean, sophisticated panels for a modern room. Seamless is ideal for displaying a full pattern, allowing your fabric choice to take center stage without interruption.
Looped and Relaxed
Looped shades feature cascading folds for visual rhythm, while Relaxed styles offer a soft, elegant curve at the bottom. These profiles bring texture and charm to any window.
Balloon and a more formal room
Balloon styling creates soft curves and deep, elegant folds. These shades turn any window into a dramatic focal point while keeping your room feeling cozy and finished.
A closer look
A layered look needs a practical plan.
Balance beauty with function by considering the purpose of each layer. We help you determine how drapery and shades work together to manage light and provide the privacy you need.
Roman with drapery
Layering drapery over a Roman shade adds depth and softens the window. Decide if your panels will frame the shade or provide full coverage, and choose fabrics that complement each other perfectly.
Compare the optionsRoman with a solar shade
Combine a decorative Roman with a solar shade for superior daylight control. This duo allows you to soften harsh sun while keeping your beautiful fabric as the primary feature during the day.
Compare the optionsTailored versus Classic Roman
Tailored shades focus on refined, hand-crafted detail and sophisticated fabrics. Classic Roman offers a simpler, continuous look that is ideal for a more understated approach to your window coverings.

Find your fabric and fold style

Lift, dimensions and installation
We consider the placement and access for every window. From motorization options to mounting, we ensure your chosen shade is both beautiful and easy to operate in your daily life.
Care and future adjustments
Balloon styling uses full curves to create a dramatic, decorative focal point. It is a beautiful choice for formal rooms where you want the window treatment to make a clear, sophisticated design statement.
A closer look
Give the folds room to gather.
The way your shade gathers when raised is a key part of its design. We coordinate the headrail and fabric stack to fit your window so the shade looks tidy whether open or closed.
Check the raised fabric stack
Consider how much glass remains visible when the shade is raised. Knowing the stack height helps you choose a style that keeps your view clear and fits within your window recess.
Plan lining and mounting together
The right lining controls the light and privacy of your room. We help you choose the ideal mount and fabric opacity to achieve the calm, ambient light you desire.
Coordinate a separate drapery layer
Layering drapery with Roman shades creates a rich, textured finish. We guide you in selecting fabrics that harmonize with your space, ensuring both systems operate independently and beautifully.
