About this fabric

The swatch is an uninterrupted field of deep charcoal-grey, with a muted military cast rather than a bright or blue-toned grey. Light moves gently across the even surface, creating a soft, diffused sheen without a visible motif or raised pile. The supplied record lists it as a Fabric in Dedar’s Satin fabrics collection, with no performance features noted.

How to use it

Use Lipstick Militare for full-length curtains where its deep military charcoal can add visual weight without introducing a pattern. Balance the shade with warm ivory, aged brass or pale timber to keep the dark surface from feeling severe.

Use its deep military charcoal tone to bring a dark, softly lustrous finish to curtains and other window treatments.

Pairs well with

Lipstick Militare is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
