STUDIO MCGEE PARTNERS WITH THE SHADE STORE TO LAUNCH LUXURY WINDOW TREATMENT COLLECTION

Shea McGee Brings Signature Style to Windows with The Shade Store Collaboration 

NEW YORK, June 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Shade Store unveils a new collection in partnership with renowned interior designer Shea McGee and her acclaimed design firm, Studio McGee. Thoughtfully developed for personal expression and versatile layering across any space, the collection captures McGee's signature aesthetic, blending sophistication, approachability, and effortless warmth.

The collaboration was a natural fit, says Shea: "I've been working with The Shade Store for years now—I've used them in my own home, on our Netflix show, and in my client projects, so when the opportunity arose for me to create my own collection, I was thrilled." While this is her first foray into window treatments, the category is at the heart of her approach to interiors.  "I always use custom treatments in all the homes I design, " she explains. "It's that final piece that really brings the room together. For me, it's about the transformative power of layering luxury and personality, allowing the window to become a room's defining feature."

"Shea's design philosophy aligns seamlessly with The Shade Store's commitment to craftsmanship, elevated style, and livable luxury," said Zach Gibbs, CEO of The Shade Store. "She has an impeccable eye, a brilliance for developing collections that speak to clients' needs, and a unique ability to connect and inspire by bringing people into her world and her design process. I think this collection will have enormous appeal with both our existing client base and new customers who want to add some of the magic of Studio McGee to their own homes with custom window treatments."

The collection includes seven distinct fabrics featuring a range of textures and patterns in tonal neutrals. For Shea, the assortment was developed with versatility in mind, "The intent was to create a palette that could be mixed and matched, from florals and ginghams to solids and plaids, so they can be layered together throughout the home and feel cohesive as a collection but also be differentiated enough to stand on their own individually. I worked really hard to create something that felt fresh but timeless, that speaks to what my clients ask for, and that will work in many different spaces."

For inspiration, she drew on her favorite influences, from classic Americana to the beauty of the natural world. The collection's materials are available for Roman Shades, Drapery, Cornices, and Pillows.
