The Fleur range from So Easy Blinds is a made-to-measure vertical blind offered in 4 colours, starting from £27.42. It is a louvre blind: fabric slats hang from a headrail, tilt to set the light level and draw to one side to clear the window. The Fleur cloth is a standard, light-filtering fabric, so it diffuses daylight rather than blocking it, and the palette is kept to clean neutral greys and whites that sit quietly against most decorating schemes rather than drawing attention to the window itself.
Who it suits
Vertical blinds suit wide windows, patio doors and conservatories better than most styles, because the louvres draw aside like a curtain to open the full aperture and can be angled to manage sun across a broad pane. The Fleur range fits that brief with a tight, neutral palette and a low entry price. The standard cloth filters light, keeping a room bright while softening glare and giving daytime privacy, which makes it a practical pick for a living room, study or any everyday window where you want diffused daylight rather than darkness.
If you need to black out a room, this is not the cloth for it: a standard fabric filters light rather than blocking it, and vertical louvres leave small gaps at the overlaps where some light always leaks through. A blackout fabric in a different style would suit a bedroom better.
The colours
4 colours available
The Fleur palette is small and neutral - a pair of soft greys around the Mist tone and a pair of clean whites - so it is a compact collection of closely related shades rather than a broad colour run. That keeps the choice simple: a cool off-white or a soft grey to sit quietly against most walls. Some shades appear in a standard listing and a multi-buy offer of the same colour, so the spread of distinct colours is narrower than the count of listings alone might suggest. Colour on a screen and colour filling a window can differ considerably, so request a sample before committing to a full-sized blind, especially when choosing between two close whites or greys.

The range is offered with a single standard fitting, so the starting price reflects a straightforward headrail installation. Fleur sits at the lower end of the made-to-measure range, and vertical blinds are generally among the more economical ways to cover a wide window, since one blind spans a width that would otherwise need several separate blinds.
How it compares
Against a roller blind, a vertical adds tilt to the simple draw: you can angle the louvres to control the light, then pull the blind aside to clear the glass entirely, which a flat roller cannot do. Against a horizontal venetian, vertical louvres handle tall, wide windows more easily and gather less dust along their faces. The trade-off is the overlaps between louvres, which leak a little light, so a vertical manages daylight and privacy rather than delivering total darkness. Within the vertical category, Fleur is the budget-conscious, light-filtering choice in a pared-back neutral palette.
A note on care
Vertical louvres are easy to maintain. Dust them with a soft brush or a vacuum brush attachment run down the length of each slat, and lift any marks with a damp cloth. A useful feature of the style is that a single damaged louvre can be replaced on its own rather than the whole blind, so a snag or stain need not retire the lot. Turn the louvres flat before cleaning so you can reach the full face of each one.
Likely the same fabric, at other retailers
Fleur vertical blinds are sold under the same name by more than one UK retailer, and the price scales identically across window sizes - a strong sign it is the same fabric from the same supplier:
- Blinds By Post from £11.21
- Blinds Direct from £16.92
- Wilsons Blinds from £23.68
- So Easy Blinds this page from £27.42
We match these on the shared name and an identical price curve, not an independent inspection, so treat it as likely the same fabric rather than confirmed - and check the specification and colour at each retailer before buying.
