The fabric definitely appears to be adhered to the entire surface of the shade. I am thinking something like a spray adhesive would work quite well to get good adhesive coverage without any streaks of adhesive showing when the lamp is turned on.
What about covering the fabric with Heat and Bond Vinyl? That would be easy to dust off.
