DRAPERY PLEAT STYLES

Double Tuck Pleated Drapery installed on a Channel Pole provides a beautifully clean and streamlined look.  The drapery appears to “float” beneath the pole as its drapery hooks are inserted into a small hole in the carriers that hang from the bottom of the channel rod.  These carriers allow the drapes to open and close with ease.

Break out the old world charm with Double Tuck Pleated Drapery on Decorative Pole using Rings!  The rings are a show-stopper and add visual interest to the drapery design.  Here, the drapery hooks are inserted into the ring eyelet.  The rings allow the drapes more movement, less controlled spacing for a casual, carefree aesthetic.

Here we have Double Tuck Pleated Drapery that I designed for a client’s daughter’s bedroom.  The linen-look 100% Polyester fabric looks gorgeous against the the aged brass Decorative Pole and Rings.  This drapery perfectly complements the old-world aesthetic of this home.  And with its black out lining, this fully operational drapery will ensure a restful sleep for their little! 🤍

The Euro Pleat Drapery seems to float effortlessly beneath this modern square channel pole.  The combination of the traditional Euro Pleat and the modern Channel Pole create a modern, stylish drapery.

Here the Euro Pleat Drapery is shown on a contemporary pole and rings.  This is an excellent illustration of how using contemporary hardware transforms traditional drapery into a more modern element.

Here is an example of an Euro Pleat that I designed for a client’s Principal Bedroom.  The crisp pleats allow the fabric to fall beautifully while keeping the soft folds in line.

Personally, I feel the Channel Pole is the better choice for the Inverted Pleat.  Its clean and streamlined aesthetic perfectly complements the contemporary feel of the Inverted Pleat. Here it is shown as a double pole with a drape paired with a sheer.

Here the Inverted Pleat is shown installed with a Decorative Pole and Rings giving the overall look a shift into a slightly more casual appearance.  Depending on the fabric used, perhaps a more softer, billowy appearance as well.

This is an excellent photo of how beautifully the Inverted Pleat draws open and creates a flat top finish.  Additionally, the pleats compress together so tightly allowing the drapes to stay fully opened to enjoy your view.
