Product Info & Care Tips

Each black drape panel includes a rod pocket sewn at the top so you can easily slide it onto your pipe and drape stand or arch. These panels are simple to hang, available in different sizes, and work well as a base or accent in any setup.

To clean, hand wash or use a gentle cycle in cold water, then hang to dry. Once dry, fold flat or roll them up and store in a cool, dry place. With good care, you can use these panels again for future events.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes are available in this collection?

Most panels come in 8ft, 10ft, and 12ft lengths. These sizes work for full wall coverage, arch wraps, or photo backdrops.

Can I use black drapes for weddings?

Yes, black is a strong, modern choice for weddings. It’s great for contrast or for moody, elegant styles when paired with florals or lights.

Will the drapes work with my existing backdrop stand?

All panels have a rod pocket that fits standard pipe and drape systems, so setup is quick and easy.

Can I mix different fabrics?

Mixing sheer with shimmer, or pairing sequins with spandex, adds texture and keeps the backdrop from looking flat.

Are the sequin and shimmer fabrics heavy?

Sequin and crinkle shimmer are a bit heavier than voile or spandex, but still lightweight enough to hang from a standard stand.

What’s the best way to remove wrinkles?

Hang the drapes early to let gravity work. For tougher wrinkles, a handheld steamer on low heat works well, just avoid direct heat on sequins.

Do these drapes work for both indoor and outdoor use? 

Yes, just make sure they’re secured properly. Some fabrics, like sheer voile, may move more in the wind, and using extra clips or weights can help.
