Ripplefold draperies are one of the most sought-after modern window treatments, offering smooth, continuous fabric waves that create a clean, sophisticated appearance. Available in 100% and 120% fullness, Ripplefold draperies are designed to complement contemporary, transitional, and luxury interiors while providing effortless operation and exceptional functionality. Whether you prefer the sleek, tailored look of 100% fullness or the richer, more luxurious appearance of 120% fullness, every Ripplefold drapery from ATX Blinds & Draperies is custom measured, handcrafted, and professionally installed using premium fabrics and precision track systems for a flawless finish.

What Are Ripplefold Draperies?

Ripplefold draperies are modern curtains that glide along a specially designed track system using evenly spaced carriers to create consistent, flowing waves across the entire window. Unlike traditional pleated draperies that gather at individual pleats, Ripplefold draperies maintain continuous, uniform folds from one end to the other, resulting in a clean architectural appearance that enhances both residential and commercial spaces.

One of the defining characteristics of Ripplefold draperies is their fullness percentage, which determines how much fabric is used to create the waves.

100% Fullness creates crisp, streamlined waves that offer a clean and minimalist aesthetic.

120% Fullness uses additional fabric to create deeper, fuller waves that provide a softer and more luxurious appearance.

Both styles operate smoothly on premium track systems and are available with manual or motorized operation.
