Have you ever wondered what the latest and greatest trends are in window coverings in the
Texas Hill Country? Well, wonder no more, our window treatment experts at Kerrville Window Fashions are here to discuss the best of 2025.
Here’s our list of the top 10 window covering styles and features from 2025, and that we expect to continue well into 2026:
1. Roller Shades
Whether automated or cordless, roller shades are at the top of the list, as we all want to enjoy our Hill Country views and bring the outside in when we can. However, the hot Texas sun limits how we do that, and we want to control that.
Many different styles of roller shades exist, ranging from simple roller shades to more elegant options, including Roman options, Hunter Douglas Sonnette® Roller Shades, and others. Our Kerrville Window Fashions team would love to show you them and help you pick the one that’s just right for you!
2. Energy-Efficient Shades
For the most effective energy efficiency, you can’t beat honeycomb shades. Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades keep out the heat and cold, while stacking neatly out of view when you desire a full, unobstructed view.
3. Shutters
Shutters remain a classic favorite in homes throughout the Hill Country. Both wood and faux wood shutters offer maximum flexibility and serve as an architectural detail that many homeowners love.
Combining shutters with other products, like drapes, in different areas of the home is a great way to enjoy several benefits, such as privacy, elegance, and practicality. Shutters from Kerrville Window Fashions are proudly made in the USA and are unmatched for beauty and functionality.
4. Sliding Door Solutions
At our window covering store in Kerrville, TX, we have many vertical solutions for sliding doors and expansive windows. From the simplicity of gliding Skyline® Panel-Track Blinds to the elegance of Luminette® Sheer Panels to custom drapery, our experienced team will help you select the perfect choice for you and your lifestyle.
5. Room-Darkening or Blackout Solutions
The ultimate in light control would be blackout or room-darkening shades and/or custom drapery. Whether for improved sleep or light and sound control in media rooms, our team can help you choose the right window covering option.
Room-darkening shades are available in various styles for most decors, and a custom blackout drapery can give the maximum coverage you crave, if you so choose.
6. Custom Drapery
Speaking of custom drapery, the softness and elegance of drapery are classic and reliable. Because of their customization options, your fabric can be casual, rustic, contemporary, and more.
With light-filtering and blackout liners, you’re in control. Drapery hardware is also available in custom options, ranging from remote control at the top of the list to simple black iron or metal for a casual or rustic style.
Let us show you the hundreds of fabric selections for both drapery and custom Roman shades, for the latest in coordination and style. We love to do drapery, and it shows!
7. Dual Shades
For the best of both worlds, dual shades combine a soft, light-filtering or sheer shade with a blackout shade for the ultimate in beauty and enjoyment of the view.
8. Top-Down/Bottom-Up
Sometimes we have a great view, but need partial privacy; these shades fit the bill. Available in styles like honeycomb shades, these offer a balance of light, privacy, and energy efficiency.
Lower them from the top to bring the outside in, while still providing a sense of security and privacy.
9. Automation and Smart Shades
With advances in technology and the push for safer window coverings, controlling your shades with a remote or smart device has become much more affordable. Rechargeable batteries eliminate the need for hard wiring in many situations, making smart shades simple to own and operate.
We always say, “Our clients rarely regret automating their shades, but sometimes regret not doing it!” No longer just for hard-to-reach windows, like skylights, we have automated window covering solutions for most custom budgets.
10. Exterior Shades and Awnings
For many years, exterior shades and awnings have been a large portion of our business at Kerrville Window Fashions. With the addition of a new line in 2025, it’s now more affordable as well.
Our team has the experience and equipment to offer a seamless solution to “Block the Sun, not the View!” and extend the enjoyment of your outdoor living area of our business. With the addition of a new line in 2025, it is now more affordable as well.
