Custom drapes bring elegance and purpose to any room. Floor-to-ceiling fabric panels frame the window, add height to the space, and create a finished, intentional look that no off-the-shelf curtain can match. Our Los Angeles clients choose custom drapes when they want a result that feels truly designed — not assembled.
Two Main Roles Drapes serve two primary purposes — decorative and functional. Decorative panels use sheer or lightweight fabrics to soften the light and frame the view. Functional panels use heavier fabrics with lining to control light, add insulation, and provide full privacy. Most rooms benefit from combining both: a sheer layer for daytime atmosphere and a lined panel for evenings and complete coverage.
Ripple Fold Drapes Ripple fold is our most popular style for contemporary Los Angeles homes. The fabric runs in soft, even S-curves from rod to floor, creating a continuous wave that looks intentional and modern at every width. Unlike pleated styles, ripple fold requires a track system — which also makes motorization seamless. The result is effortlessly clean: no stacked fabric, no visible hardware, just smooth movement and a quiet architectural presence. It works equally well in linen, velvet, or sheer.

Euro Pleat Drapes Euro pleat — also called French pleat or pinch pleat — creates structured, evenly spaced folds at the top of the panel. It is the most classic and widely recognized drapery style, and remains the top choice for formal living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms in Beverly Hills and Brentwood estates. Euro pleat panels have weight and presence: they hang with authority and suit high ceilings naturally. We offer both 2-finger and 3-finger variations depending on fabric weight and desired fullness.

Sheer Drapes Sheers do more than filter light — they define the mood of a room. A well-chosen sheer in ivory linen voile or soft cotton gauze transforms harsh California sunlight into something warm and diffused, without closing off the room or the view. We offer sheers as standalone panels for spaces that need softness without privacy concerns, and as a layering element paired with blackout or privacy drapes for full day-to-night flexibility. Sheers are especially popular in living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms where natural light is the primary design asset.
Fabric Selection We work with over 1,000 fabrics — linen, velvet, cotton, silk blends, sheer voile, and performance textiles. Linen is our most popular choice for Los Angeles homes: it breathes, softens naturally in light, and suits modern, transitional, and coastal interiors equally well. Velvet brings richness and drama to formal rooms. During your consultation, we bring fabric samples to your home so you can see every option in your actual light conditions.
Lining Options Lining transforms how a drape performs. Unlined panels are light and relaxed. Privacy lining adds body, filters the sun, and protects fabric from UV damage — essential given Los Angeles’s 280+ sunny days per year. Blackout lining blocks 95–100% of light and is our most requested upgrade for bedrooms and home theaters.
Motorization and Hardware All drape styles are available with motorized traverse rods, operable by remote, app, or voice command through Alexa and Google Home. This is especially popular with ripple fold drapes, where the track system and motorization are a natural combination. Rod and hardware finishes include brushed gold, matte black, brushed nickel, and antique bronze — matched to your room’s existing fixtures during the consultation.
Care and Longevity Custom drapes made with quality fabrics and proper lining last 10–15 years or more. All fabrics are selected for fade resistance under California’s intense sunlight. Professional steaming after installation ensures a perfect hang from day one.

What is the difference between ripple fold and euro pleat drapes?
Ripple fold drapes hang on a track system and fall in soft, continuous S-curves — a clean, modern look that suits contemporary interiors. Euro pleat (pinch pleat) uses structured fabric folds at the heading, creating a more formal, traditional silhouette. Ripple fold is our most popular style for modern LA homes; euro pleat is the top choice for formal rooms and classic interiors. We show you both in fabric samples during your consultation.
How are custom drapes made?
Every pair of drapes is cut, sewn, and finished by hand at our Los Angeles workroom. We start with your confirmed measurements and fabric selection, then construct each panel to your chosen pleat style, lining, and length. Ripple fold panels are sewn with evenly spaced tape that clips onto the track system. Euro pleat panels are hand-pleated and finished with hooks for rod or traverse installation. No machine shortcuts — every detail is done by our experienced workroom team.
What fabrics are available for custom drapes?
We work with multiple premium fabric brands and carry an extensive selection across linen, velvet, cotton, silk blends, sheer voile, and performance textiles. Linen is our most popular choice for Los Angeles homes — lightweight, breathable, and naturally beautiful in California light. Velvet suits formal rooms and adds acoustic warmth. During your in-home consultation, we bring a curated selection of samples so you can see every fabric in your actual lighting and alongside your existing furniture and finishes.
Does the price include installation?
Yes. Every order includes professional installation of all rods, tracks, brackets, and finished panels. For ripple fold drapes we install the full track system; for euro pleat we install the rod and all mounting hardware. We handle all drilling carefully, with no damage to your walls or ceilings.
Can custom drapes be motorized?
Yes. Both ripple fold and euro pleat drapes are available with motorized traverse systems. Ripple fold is particularly well suited to motorization — the track system integrates seamlessly with quiet electric motors operable by remote, app, or voice command through Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit. Motorized drapes are especially popular in living rooms and master bedrooms where large panels make manual operation impractical.
