French pleat curtains, also known as pinch pleat curtains, are a classic and elegant type of window covering. They feature evenly spaced, tightly gathered pleats that are stitched together at the top of the curtain panel.

French pleat curtains are typically made from heavier fabrics such as silk, linen, or velvet, which allow the pleats to hold their shape. They provide a tailored and formal look that complements traditional and formal interior design styles.

These curtains are hung using drapery hooks, which are inserted into the pleats and attached to a traverse rod or decorative drapery rod. The pleats create a fullness that allows the curtains to drape gracefully and provide maximum coverage when closed.

French pleat curtains can be customized to fit various window sizes and are available in a range of colors and patterns to suit different interior design styles. They can also be paired with valances or other decorative elements for added visual interest.
