Draperies
Drapes are ideal for elevating a room’s appearance to make it glamorously dramatic.
Carole Fabrics™ is a leading brand in custom drapes, offering an extensive range of styles and materials.
Non-Pleated Styles
Non-pleated styles are exactly what they sound like—drapes without pleats. They have a perfectly flat look against your window treatments. These drapes may look best in traditional or formal themes.
A few features of non-pleated styles are:
- Grommet Heading: Eight grommets per width; available in five finishes, including antique brass, brushed nickel, and rust.
- Rod Pocket Heading: Custom rod pocket sizes are available. The ordered widths determine the fullness.
- Plain Top Drapery: Decorative rods and rings give plain top drapery its elegant style, making it great for stationary side panels
Pleated Styles
Unlike non-pleated styles, pleated styles have multiple folds or creases, offering a fuller appearance. This look often complements a modern aesthetic.
Unique folds you can get with Carole Fabrics™ pleated styles include:
- Goblet Pleat: The goblet-shaped pleats are a fantastic choice for formal rooms and are recommended for decorative use only.
- Inverted Pleat: Three-fold pleats with a 4” buckram for crisp lines, tacked ½” from the top, are ideal for traversing or stationary panels.
- Monarch Pleat: Also known as the butterfly pleat, this two-fold style features a single bar tack 2” below the top to emphasize the crease’s shape.
- Olivia Pleat: This crisp two-fold pleat with tacks ½” from the top of the buckram is an excellent choice for a sophisticated space.
- Three-Finger Pinch Pleat: This is the classic pleat style seen in upscale settings. It’s tacked ¼” from the bottom of the heading for full, straight pleats.

Soft Shades
If you’re looking for an alternative to hard window treatments, consider soft shades. Available in several colors, patterns, and textures, you’re sure to find something to match your existing décor.
We have several soft shades available, such as:
- Flat Roman Shade: This style lays flat when completely lowered, making it an excellent way to showcase patterned fabrics.
- Front Fold Roman Shade: Front fold shades have stiffener rods sewn into the face of the shade, creating crisp folds with minimal dressing needed when raising or lowering it.
- Hobbled Roman Shade: This is one of the more luxurious shades, maintaining its folds even when you lower the shade completely.
- Reverse Fold Roman Shade: Another style with stiffener rods to maintain crisp lines with minimal dressing, reverse fold Roman shades can disrupt patterns when portions tuck into the folds.
- Slouch Roman Shade: This style features a scalloped bottom that retains shape in any shade.
Hardware
Decorative hardware brings a distinctive style to your drapery. Your choice of rods, brackets, and finials adds custom style to your window treatments. Carole Fabrics™ offers several premium brands of drapery hardware.
