Refined Pleats for Modern Interiors
Sitting between the contemporary minimalism of a Single Pleat heading and the classic fullness of the Triple Pleat Heading, Bi Pleat works with almost all fabric styles. Consisting of structured pleats that sit neatly in pairs, it requires 90 – 100% fullness and works well with textures, patterns and plains.
Bi Pleat also can be used with Bumph Interlining to create a generous, soft and flowing effect, while still looking tailored and elegant.
For added height and definition, a 150mm deep buckram can be used—ideal for full-length curtains or ceiling-mounted tracks. While Bi Pleats work beautifully installed on a track, when paired with a rod they are elevated to create a more decorative finish.
How to Choose the Right Heading Style
Choosing the right curtain heading isn’t just about aesthetics—it influences how your curtains sit, move, and interact with your space. While many fabrics are versatile across styles, a few thoughtful decisions will help ensure the finish is just right.
Visual Aesthetic & Style
The heading style plays a key role in the overall look of your curtains. Whether you prefer a clean, modern finish or something more decorative and full, the heading helps define how the curtains sit and complement the surrounding space.
Fullness & Fabric Volume
Fullness refers to how much fabric is used to create the body and shape of your curtains. It influences both the way they drape and the final finish—whether softly gathered or more tailored. Some styles and spaces suit a more generous, voluminous look, while others benefit from a sleeker, more understated effect. Choosing the right fullness helps ensure your curtains feel in harmony with the scale and style of your interior.
Track or Rod Compatibility
Certain heading styles are better suited to specific hardware—like decorative rods, S-fold tracks, or concealed systems. The style you choose may depend on whether you want the track to be a visible design feature or subtly hidden from view.
