The Myth range from So Easy Blinds is a made-to-measure vertical blind offered in 2 colourways, starting from £51.57. Vertical blinds hang as a row of fabric louvres that tilt to control light and draw to one side to clear the window, which makes them a natural fit for the wide openings a roller or roman struggles to span.
Who it suits
Vertical blinds are well suited to wide windows, patio doors and conservatories. The louvres tilt together to angle daylight in or close for privacy, and they draw to the side so you can step through a doorway without raising the whole blind. Myth's fabric is light-filtering, so the louvres soften and diffuse daylight rather than blacking it out - a good fit for living rooms, dining rooms and conservatory spaces that want warm, even light through the day.
The style carries one honest limitation: even tilted closed, the louvres leave small gaps where they overlap, so some light always leaks through. A vertical blind is not a blackout solution. If you need a properly dark room, a blackout roller or pleated blind is the better choice; for adjustable daytime light and privacy across a broad window, Myth is a sound match.
A further practical point is the way verticals handle a tall opening as well as a wide one. The louvres run the full drop in continuous lengths, so a floor-to-ceiling window or a set of patio doors is dressed cleanly, without the horizontal lines you would get from stacking several smaller blinds. The wand-and-chain control tilts and draws the whole set together, which keeps a large window simple to operate day to day.
The colours
2 colours available
Myth is a small, warm-neutral collection rather than a broad colour range. Both colourways sit in the cream family - Flax and Hemp - so the choice here is about the exact warmth of the neutral rather than picking from a wide spread of hues. Creams of this kind are easy to live with, lending a softer, warmer feel than a cool grey or stark white and sitting comfortably with most furnishings. With only two options, a sample matters more than ever: colour on a screen rarely matches colour filling a window, so it is worth holding a sample against your own glass and walls before committing to a full-sized blind.

Vertical blinds are generally among the more affordable ways to dress a wide window, since one blind covers a span that might otherwise need several smaller blinds, and Myth sits in that accessible band. The price is driven mostly by the width and drop of your opening, so a patio-door-sized blind naturally costs more than a standard window.
How it compares
Against a roller or roman, the vertical's advantage is reach and adjustability across a wide opening, plus the side-draw that keeps a doorway clear. Against a venetian, the louvres are fabric rather than slats, giving a softer, warmer look but the same overlap light leak when closed. Within vertical fabrics, Myth's light-filtering cream cloth keeps a room bright and diffused with a warm cast; if you need real darkness, a blackout vertical fabric would shade more heavily, though no vertical blind seals out light entirely.
A note on care
Vertical louvres are easy to keep tidy. Dust them regularly with a soft brush or a vacuum on a low setting, running down the length of each louvre. For marks, wipe gently with a damp cloth and a little mild detergent, taking care not to over-wet the fabric - pale creams can show water marks if soaked, so work lightly and let them dry fully. A practical advantage of the style is that the louvres are individually replaceable, so a single stained or damaged louvre can be swapped rather than the whole blind.
Likely the same fabric, at other retailers
Myth 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 £12.35
- Blinds Direct from £43.20
- So Easy Blinds this page from £51.57
- Vertical Blinds Direct from £60.78
- Wilsons Blinds from £71.50
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.
