Some FAQs.

  • 1. Are muslin backdrops wrinkle-free?

    Muslin backdrops are a fabric material, so it can be difficult to avoid wrinkles. We recommend Ironing or steaming before use.

  • 2. How can I store cotton muslins?

    Store in a clean, dark and dry place to avoid colour fade and the material getting dirty.

  • 3. Are cotton muslins machine washable?

    Yes! Cotton muslins can be put in the washing machine to clean them if dirty. We recommend cleaning them separately to avoid the colours running. For Hand-Dyed muslins, we recommend hand washing, as the dyeing technique used is more delicate.

  • 4. Why should I choose a fabric backdrop over paper?

    Cotton muslins are great as they are reusable, unlike their paper counterparts. This allows them to be washed if they get dirty. They are also easier to store as they can fold, and are great for travel.

  • 5. What is the colour range like?

    While the range is a little smaller in terms of colours, you have the benefit of mottled patterns, which are unavailable in the paper backdrops!

  • 6. Do you offer custom colours/sizes?

    Currently, we only offer the cotton muslins in 3x3m and 3x6m. Custom colours/sizes are not available.

  • 7. How can I hang this in the background?

    The Muslin backdrop range features a 3" Rod Pocket, which fits our 2.8mx3.0m backdrop stand found here (insert Hyperlink).

  • 8. Are muslins as professional looking as paper?

    Muslin backdrops are very professional while being on the more casual side. You can drape it over plinths/props for a very editorial look!

  • 9. Why is the colour different to what I saw online?

    Due to the nature of computer/phone screens, the colour may be different to what is featured online. We recommend coming to our showroom to see our samples in person. Alternatively, we are happy to provide photos under different lighting for more clarity on the colour.

  • 10. What are curtain backdrops for?

    The curtains are excellent to use for product photography, giving your photos a very regal/moody vibe.




Tips for Choosing the Right Muslin and Fabric Backdrops

  1. Colour and Pattern: Consider the colour and pattern that will enhance your subject and the mood of your photos. Solid colours are classic and versatile, while patterns can add character and depth to your shots.

  2. Material Matters: Muslin and fabric backdrops come in various materials, each with its unique characteristics. Muslin is a popular choice due to its durability and texture, while other fabrics like polyester offer a smoother, wrinkle-resistant surface.

  3. Size and Dimensions: Ensure that the backdrop size complements your shooting space. Depending on your style and requirements, you can opt for standard backdrop sizes or customise one to fit your specific needs.

  4. Portability and Storage: If you're frequently on the move, consider the ease of transporting and storing your backdrops. Many are foldable and come with carrying cases for convenience.
