Triple Pleat Curtains

Triple pleat curtains are the most classic and formal style of curtains. They require a generous amount of fabric at 110 – 120% fullness.

For extra-tall curtains and especially if your curtains extend to the ceiling we like to specify a 150mm deep buckram tape which elongates the pleat and gives an elegant look.

This curtain style works well with plain fabrics as well as traditional florals and patterns, however it is not suitable for very thick fabrics.

It can be hung on a track or for a more formal look we would recommend a rod.

When considering the design of your new curtains one of the most important considerations that can be often overlooked is the fullness.

The fullness determines how much fabric goes into your curtains and can ‘make or break’ the final result. Your Mckenzie & Willis interior designer will recommend and discuss different heading styles and fullness options to suit your chosen fabric and achieve the best look for your home.
