Fabric Collections
At GiCor we believe that choice is Paramount and that NO TWO projects are alike! We feel that each client deserves to make an educated choice based on the BEST quality textiles available in the market today. Essentially when it comes to your project, one size DOES NOT FIT ALL! For drapery, bedding, roman & roller shades, we utilize our extensive library to work with you to create beautiful and functional window treatments that turn the ordinary into the extraordinary.
When you come into our showroom you will see that we have one of the largest fabric collections in Calgary. And if we don’t have what you are looking for in our showroom we can take you to one of Calgary’s exclusive “To the Trade” fabric showrooms to ensure that you find exactly what you are looking for.
Drapery / Shades / Bedding / Upholstery
For custom drapery, valances, bedding and upholstery we showcase thousands of fabrics from local, regional and imported mills across the world including delicate sheer, natural linens, dynamic plaids and luxurious paisleys. We also carry a full range of trimming including brush & bullion fringe as well as tapes and tassels. And don’t forget the decorative hardware where the collections are always changing!
