Roman shades fold into soft pleats, and some can be ordered top-down bottom-up. Fewer stores offer this than for cellular shades: Blindsgalore listed 5 cordless top-down bottom-up Roman shades when we checked, while SelectBlinds listed 2.

Questions people ask
- Can Roman shades be top-down bottom-up?
- Some can. It depends on the store and the fabric line, so check the options on the product page.
- Are top-down bottom-up Roman shades blackout?
- Some lines offer a room-darkening or blackout lining. Light can still leak at the sides.

- Woven wood (bamboo) gives a similar natural look and some lines come top-down bottom-up.
