Excellent fabric and fitting. Communication in the week before the visit could have been slightly better, but the work itself is faultless.

The second image drapes this shade's own photograph on a window to show the colour gathered into folds. It is a visualisation, not a photograph of a fitted job — and cloth backlit by your own glass reads differently again, which is why we bring the book to you.

How this shade behaves on a window
Light enough to keep a room feeling open when the curtains are drawn, dense enough to black it out completely. Closed during the day it holds a soft glow at the surface rather than going flat, so the room feels dim rather than shut. The cool base keeps it looking clean rather than yellow, and it sits well with grey flooring and white walls.
The cast is quiet. A blue-green undertone, which is rare in blackout ranges. It reads as calm and slightly cool, and it is a good foil for warm wood.
Where it sits in the book
Ranked by lightness it is the 17th of 22 — among the palest shades. Closest to it are Ivory White and Straw Cream, worth comparing side by side if you are undecided.
Rooms and layering
A natural fit for bedrooms in apartments, small rooms, and anywhere the curtain covers a large part of the wall — it darkens completely without making the room feel smaller.
If you are layering, a chiffon sheer from catalogue 401 goes on the front track. With a blackout in this range almost any sheer works, so choose the sheer on how bright you want the room to feel by day.
Looking after it
Pale blackout shows handling marks along the leading edge, where hands actually touch the curtain. A tie-back keeps fingers off the cloth and does more for its appearance over five years than anything else. Vacuum with a brush head; dry clean when it needs it.
Catalogue 301 is our textured blackout: the weave has a visible grain that catches light across the folds and disguises the small creases every curtain picks up in handling. Every shade in the book is the same price, and our team brings the physical Book 301 to your home free so you can judge it against your own glass.
See Vanilla Cream drawn across the glass
This is shade 301-13 itself, gathered into folds and lit — not a colour swatch. The other 21 shades of book 301 are beside it, so you can put Vanilla Cream next to the ones it is easily confused with.

Vanilla Cream blackout curtains in Dubai: what this shade is like to live with
Vanilla Cream is shade 301-13 in book 301, our textured blackout range, and this is what to know before ordering vanilla cream blackout curtains in Dubai. a visible surface texture that hides creases and suits large windows.
Pale blackout shades like this suit rooms you want bright by day and dark at night — the light-stopping layer is woven in, so a pale curtain blocks as much light as a dark one. Very light shades show dust sooner than mid tones, so they reward regular dusting rather than washing. They also stay cooler to the touch in direct sun than a dark shade does.
What it costs, and what is included
What you pay depends on the width of the track and the fullness the heading needs, not on which colour you choose within the book. Every shade in this book is held in our own UAE warehouse, which is why we quote days rather than the weeks an imported order takes. You can price your own window with the estimator before anyone visits.
Seeing this shade in your own light
Colour is the one thing a screen gets wrong. Warm afternoon light pushes a shade like this towards yellow, and a north-facing room pulls it the other way, so the safest way to judge it as a blackout is against your own wall. The book comes to the home on the free measuring visit, alongside the other three catalogues if you want to compare.
What it pairs with
A blackout on its own gives you sun or darkness with nothing between. Adding a chiffon sheer in front on a double track is what most bedrooms here end up with, and it protects the blackout from the daily sun.
Technically this is Vanilla Cream textured blackout fabric, cut and made up to your window rather than sold by the metre — the shade is fixed, the size is not.
