Definitely lets sunlight through, though these curtains still look great they specify they block out 80-90% of sunlight which is probably a little bit less than that. I decided to buy some that were completely 100% black out and I hung both sets on my window. One set is for looks and the other is for no sunlight because I work nights. Or you could just find some curtains that offer both; style and 100% proof.
