The heading of a curtain, meaning how the top is sewn and hung, decides the folds, the movement and how much fabric you need. The three most common:
Pleated
The classic, with structured pleats. It suits formal spaces and heavy fabrics, because it carries the weight and holds the folds in place.
Wave
Gives continuous, calm waves and works well in contemporary rooms. It usually needs a dedicated track.
Eyelet
A simple, modern look. Movement along the pole is slower and the weight of the fabric matters.
The choice depends on the fabric, the use and the style of the space, and in hotels easy operation counts too. Each heading needs a different fullness, so a different amount of fabric, which is why the choice is made before ordering.
We sew curtains in our own workshop and take care of installation too.
