Description
Bring a classic look to your living space with these curtains from Yard. Woven from pure cotton with a touchably soft finish, they come with pencil pleats across the top to create an elegant feel. They're also blackout to block out the light and provide extra privacy.
Our Stylist Says
I love the YARD Hebden blackout curtains for their versatile design and practical functionality. The pink mix adds a subtle touch of colour that can brighten up neutral or palaetone interiors, making it an excellent choice for a cosy bedroom or living space. The pencil pleat style offers a classic, tailored look that works well with both traditional and contemporary decor. Practical styling tips include pairing it with light, neutral walls to make the colour pop, and adding coordinating cushions or accessories for a cohesive look. They’re particularly effective in spaces where you want to block out light and add some softness to the window area without overpowering the room.

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.
