Or you can go with a 2-color theme in a geometric print, thanks to this Trina Turk Trellis Shower Curtain from Macy’s. Turquoise blue and crisp white are the perfect complement to a light, bright space like the one pictured below:
Modern organic shapes are a subtle way to add pattern to your powder room, especially when the pattern appears on a muted hue… This Marimekko Valmuska Almond Shower Curtain from Crate & Barrel features Erja Hirvi’s 2008 design inspired by the underside of mushroom (“Valmuska”) caps!

Delean Designs features a photographic image on a softened polyester curtain. It will definitely be the centerpiece of your space…
Color blocking meets wood blocking in the Color Blocked Shower Curtain from CB2. Boasting a design created by hand-carved wooden blocks, this item also features shades of red and orange. Yet the intricate pattern on a white background keeps these colors from taking over:

Solid Shower Curtains
We now turn our attention to solid shower curtains that work in modern spaces. I’m a big fan of shower curtains that let the natural light in. That’s why I’m drawn to this Netty White Shower Curtain from CB2, which also features a white macramé lace top for a bit of fun detail…
The Stonewashed Belgian Linen Shower Curtain from Restoration Hardware was created from Belgian flax, and the color is super refreshing, don’t you think?! Even if it’s not your hue of choice, note that this piece is available in a variety of soothing color options…
Elegance meets down-to-earth style with the Pintuck Shower Curtain in Slate from West Elm. Hand-stitched pintuck pleats add a fancy element that also looks wonderfully disheveled. Plus, this piece is 100% cotton, making it anything but stuffy!
We end with a shower curtain that can’t help but look a bit ’80s. Since I’m a big fan of ’80s design, I was drawn to this curtain like a kid to candy. Retro candy, that is! Introducing the Black Waffle Stripe Shower Curtain from Sears, featuring waffle weave textured stripes. And yes, this one is also available in a range of color options. But they probably won’t look as ’80s…
