Floor Mirrors: See the Whole Picture
Every home needs at least one full length mirror. It's the only way to check your whole outfit. A large floor mirror also works hard as a design feature.
Leaning vs Standing Mirrors
- Leaning mirrors – rest against the wall for a relaxed, stylish look.
- Freestanding mirrors – have their own stand and can go anywhere.
- Cheval mirrors – tilt in a frame for the perfect angle. See our cheval mirrors.
Make a Room Look Bigger
Mirrors double the sense of space. Place a floor mirror opposite a window to reflect daylight. In a narrow hallway, a tall mirror makes the space feel wider. In a dark bedroom, it brightens corners.
Choosing a Size
A full length mirror should be at least half your height to show your whole body. Most are 150 to 180cm tall. Wider mirrors work well in dressing areas and walk-in wardrobes.
Safety First
Leaning mirrors should be secured to the wall with a safety strap or anti-tip fixing. This is especially important with children and pets. Place them on a flat, non-slip surface.
Styling Tips
Lean a large mirror behind a console table or sideboard. In a bedroom, place it beside the wardrobe. Choose a frame that matches nearby furniture.
