Description
These brushed fabric eyelet curtains offer elegant draping and effortless hanging. The blackout finish ensures complete privacy by eliminating outside light, while the temperature-smart thermal lining helps maintain room comfort year-round by retaining heat in winter and keeping it out during summer. Maximum Warmth Heat Rating: Our Maximum Warmth heat rating means that this fabric is proven to show thermal performance helping you keep you warm when the weather gets chilly.
Our Stylist Says
The M&S brushed eyelet blackout curtains in mid blue are a versatile choice for adding both style and function to a space. I love how the deep blue hue offers a calm, sophisticated feel that can work well in contemporary or traditional interiors alike. The brushed texture adds a bit of visual interest without overwhelming the room, while the blackout and thermal properties make them practical for bedrooms or living areas that need privacy and temperature control. For styling tips, pair these curtains with neutral walls and minimal accessories to let their colour stand out, or combine with accent cushions and accessories in complementary shades like soft greys or navy for a cohesive look. They're particularly effective in a colour-blocked scheme or as a calming backdrop in a modern, minimalist setting.

About Marks & Spencer
History and Expansion
Marks and Spencer, often lovingly called "Marks and Sparks" or "M&S", has been a staple in the UK market since its founding in 1884. Over the years, the brand has seen tremendous growth, with 1,064 stores across the UK and an additional 406 locations worldwide as of 2023.
Historically, M&S was celebrated for its commitment to selling British-made goods, pioneering the "St Michael" brand in 1928 which honoured its co-founder Michael Marks.
As they grew, M&S maintained its reputation for quality, fair value, and innovative customer policies, even allowing returns with full cash refunds regardless of purchase date.
Clothing & Home Business Endeavours
In recent years, M&S has focused on modernising its Clothing & Home business, striving to offer contemporary, stylish products that resonate with their 22 million customers.
A noteworthy move was their acquisition of Jaeger in 2021, a brand that shares a founding year with M&S. Under M&S's umbrella, Jaeger remains an independent brand, renowned for its timeless elegance, and is now available on M&S's website and in select M&S stores across the UK and Ireland.
Sustainability and Innovations
Throughout its existence, Marks and Spencer has demonstrated commitment to improving customer experience and sustainability.
In the 1950s, they introduced hygiene training for canteen staff, and by the 1960s had implemented thermostatically controlled refrigerators for enhanced energy efficiency.
M&S has been at the forefront of many retail innovations, from introducing "sell by dates" in the early '70s to enhance food quality, to banning smoking in all their stores as early as 1959 due to fire hazards.
The brand's long standing dedication to quality, customer relations, and sustainability remains evident in their practices today.
