Custom Drapery Pleats & Styles

The Art of Perfect Draping

At Windows Dressed Up, we believe that every detail matters, especially when it comes to custom drapes. The style of the pleat you choose is the single most important design element, as it defines the entire look and how your drapes will hang. From sleek, modern folds to classic, tailored headers, the right pleat style can transform a window from a simple opening into a stunning focal point.

Explore Our Pleat Styles

We offer a wide range of pleated drapery styles, each providing a unique design and aesthetic.

  • Pinch Pleat Drapes: A timeless and classic choice, pinch pleats create a graceful, tailored look by gathering fabric into distinctive folds that flow elegantly down the length of the panel. We offer French Two-Finger and French Three-Finger styles.
  • Grommet Drapes: For a clean, contemporary feel, grommet drapes use stylish metal rings in the fabric header, allowing the panels to slide smoothly along the rod in deep, uniform folds.
  • Ripplefold Drapery: Known for its simple, modern elegance, ripplefold drapes feature soft, continuous “S” folds from top to bottom, creating a minimalistic and beautiful visual effect.
  • Cartridge Pleat Drapes: This modern and streamlined style creates a soft, rolling effect, giving the drape a sculpted look and a sleek, contemporary header.
  • Goblet Pleat Drapes: For a formal and opulent design, goblet pleats feature a unique, padded top that resembles a wine glass, adding a touch of classic sophistication.
  • Flemish Pleat Drapes: Also known as inverted pleats, this modern style has pleat folds that face backward, creating a smooth and uninterrupted flow of fabric down the entire length of the drape.
