Pinch Pleat

  Pinch-pleat (including French and Parisian pleat) fabrication creates a full, even look to drapery. This style of treatment gives superior light control and is a good solution for guest rooms and other areas where blackout is desirable. Pinch-pleated drapery may require more room for stack-back. Pleats can be specified as double or triple pleats, which refer to the number of times the fabric is gathered at each pleat.
