Faux suede and real suede have about the same durability, and both make excellent curtains.
"Faux suede" in English means finto camoscio in Italian.
Faux suede is widely used to make clothing, shoes, bags and furniture. It is a soft, synthetic fabric made 100% polyester.
Faux chenille originated in France during the early 19th century as a textile technique that mimicked the soft, textured appearance of traditional chenille fabric. The term "chenille" itself is derived from the French word for "caterpillar," reflecting the fabric's fuzzy, caterpillar-like texture. Over time, faux chenille gained popularity in various countries for its affordability and versatility, especially in home decor and fashion. Today, it is commonly made from synthetic fibers, making it accessible and easy to care for.

No, they are dry clean only.
It's not recommended to iron faux suede, as the heat can damage the fabric and alter its texture. Instead, you can use a steamer to gently remove wrinkles or hang the garment in a steamy bathroom to help smooth it out. If you must use an iron, place a thin cloth between the iron and the faux suede, and use the lowest heat setting. Always check the care label for specific instructions.
It is often called faux leather. This is not strictly true. There are many names for fake suede including Alcantara, Buffalo, Micro suede, and amny more. Each country has their own variation.
If your faux suede has faded, the good news is that a simple fade is relatively easy to repair. Suede color is typically just on the surface, so fading is most likely the result of a cleaning process that took the color right off of it. All you need is a dye that will work on the type of faux suede you have and the proper application tools. However, before you dye the suede, it's a good idea to clean it if it's dirty. You'll find more info on how to do this in the related link.
