How come some brands of curtains fade so quickly and what is it that makes them fade?

Most fabric fibers are naturally white or light in color. The colors are added via dyes . Some dyes are more stable that others, meaning they chemically last longer under assault from combinations of water, oxygen and ultraviolet light in sunlight. As the dye molecules are broken up, they lose their color... bleaching or fading. Additionally, dyes can be protected from damage with the addition of UV absorbing stabilizers (like sun-screen for chemicals). Cheaper manufacturers use less stable dyes and fail to add stabilizers.
