Hello, please can anyone help me choose the right made to order curtains?

(these are my old ones below)


they’re for a bedroom, will need a blackout lining ( im assuming this will make them weightier & stick out more.

the curtain firm has said it’s best to have short curtains because there are space issues;

1. A wardrobe door opens up to & against them

2. There’s a radiator under window (not an issue as it’s off when curtains are closed)

3. Bed very close to window making walk space pretty tight & this is the main reason short curtains suggested.

if it would be unwise to go long, how can i make the short curtains look attractive on a wide rectangle window? I think i need to have a pelmet too otherwise re-decorating would be required (currently has a big pelmet board fitted etc) . What fabric looks good & hangs well when short...velvet, silk??


im stuck!

Be so grateful for any help.

thank you :)
