Solid Fabric Vanes

The sculpted fabric vanes of Pirouette^® shades close completely for privacy and precise light control. When closed, they create the soft, dimensional look of roman shades, available in both light-filtering and room-darkening fabrics. When opened, the vanes fold in place, floating gracefully to reveal your outdoor view through the sheer backing. These sheer panels diffuse natural light, reduce glare, and help protect your interiors from harmful UV rays.

window shades with covering options of clearview or original

ClearView^® or Original Sheer Backing

The sheer backing of Pirouette^® window shades is available in two distinct options. The original sheer fabric softly diffuses incoming light, reducing glare while creating a warm, ambient glow. ClearView^® sheer fabrics provide a sharper, more defined outdoor view—while still diffusing sunlight and maintaining a comfortable interior atmosphere.

Light Control, Privacy & View-Through Options

Pirouette^® shades offer three distinct positions for flexible light control throughout the day. In the closed position, fabrics block varying levels of light—including room-darkening options. With the vanes opened, natural light is softly diffused through sheer fabrics while maintaining your view. For a completely unobstructed window, the shade rolls smoothly into the headrail. For added convenience, these positions can be controlled manually or paired with motorized window shades for effortless adjustment.
