Pret A Vivre

This was a great experience, from idea generation to installation. We are very pleased with the results.

This is our second order with Pret a Vivre (the first was a few years ago) . We wanted a combination of upside-down and blackout blinds across three rooms. As before, Helen , Mathylde and Marina at Pret a Vivre Fulham were incredibly helpful and patient. The measuring and installation teams did a fantastic job. We were kept informed at every stage and there were no surprises. The blinds look and feel delicious and uplift our rooms in the best way, and the combination of roller and blackout blinds gives the best of all worlds. We are extremely happy with the end result.

It was a pleasure to work with Alienor and Catia at Pret a Vivre to install curtains and blinds in my home. They were very helpful and efficient throughout and were even able to externally source some vintage brass railings for the project. I am looking forward to working more with them for future projects. The products are very reasonably priced and the service is wonderful and professional - highly recommend!

I had a great experience working with Helen at Pret A Vivre in Fulham. Helen has great expertise and guided me and my client in choosing the best window dressing solutions for the project. Throughout the process I could see her and her teams efforts to make working together a positive experience and to achieve the best result for the client.

All through from my first appearance in the shop in Islington, the service has been excellent. Good selection of material, professional measuring and blinds fitted within the expected schedule. They are a lovely addition to the room, beautifully fitted. Ian S Kennington

Pret A Vivre offered a thoroughly professional service. The curtains were completed on time and correctly installed. They are excellent quality, beautifully made and look great. They really enhance the room.

We are extremely happy with the quality and professionalism shown by Pret a Vivre. We needed a set of curtains (voile and outer) installed in a high-ceilinged room with a slightly tilted ceiling (in a listed georgian terrace which was hit by a bomb in the war- hence the slight tilt) . Helen at the Fulham showroom was very helpful and patient , taking particular care to advise us on colours , fabrics and the mechanisms and support structures. Marina and the central planning/fitting team were extremely prompt in scheduling measurements and installation . We were kept informed throughout . The fitter was very skilled and neat and there was absolutely no disruption . 8 weeks later, we have an wonderful set of curtains that transform the room and look elegant inside and out. The entire experience was crisp, professional yet personalised- a world away from the half-hearted effort one gets from big-name stores. Thank you Pret a Vivre!

I am so pleased with the curtains and Roman blinds recently made and installed by Pret A Vivre. Helen at the Fulham Showroom was so helpful with choosing fabrics and designs, and Declan did a great job installing. I’m so pleased with my choice of materials and impressed by the quality of how they are made and installed.

Helen at Pret A Vivre took time to understand our needs and worked with us to create a beautiful solution for our London flat, incorporating blinds and curtains. A highly-recommended business to work with. Big enough to get the job done. Small enough to add the personal touches.

We have chosen Prêt à Vivre via internet search and personal recommendations. We had to decorate a flat in Knightsbridge, roughly 1600 square feet, two bedrooms with adjoining bathrooms, large living and kitchen. We needed curtains, blinds and rollos. From the first moment, we felt understood and that we were in highly professional hands. They got our taste and came up with textiles an ideas that matched our expectations. The dialogue with our professional advisor, Alienor Mabon, was very constructive and we came to joint conclusions within a relatively short time span. The decision was made to place an order for our complete needs. Both the fitters and the installers did an equally excellent job. En bref, we are super happy with the outcome and we can only strongly recommend using their services.

We are so happy with the roman blinds we ordered via the Notting Hill branch. The whole process from our initial visit to the showroom to the installation today was smooth and efficient. What a great team and excellent service. Highly recommended.

I have just had fitted 7 pairs of curtains and blinds made by Pret a Vivre and am delighted with them The service given by Helen at the Fulham store was excellent in terms of potential styles and helping with fabrics. The fitters were extremely efficient. I would not hesitate to use the firm again for another project.
