Everything We Make
Exotic Shades & Draperies fabricates the whole soft side of an interior in our own Fort Lauderdale workroom: motorized and Lutron shading, couture drapery, blinds and shutters, reupholstery, bedding, cushions, headboards and wall panels, installed by one team across Fort Lauderdale, Miami Beach, Boca Raton and Palm Beach.
Windows, and everything soft around them
Most companies sell one category. We fabricate across the whole soft side of an interior: motorized and Lutron shading, couture drapery, blinds and shutters, and a full upholstery line - reupholstery, bedding, cushions, headboards and wall panels - all from the same Fort Lauderdale atelier, by the same five master seamstresses.
That is why a room we finish reads as one design: the drapery, the bedding, the headboard and the seating can share a fabric story, sourced and sewn together, then installed by one team.
