7 beautiful ways to dress windows

Whether you have a bay or straight window, discover the best way to dress it up.

Use a wave heading


Soft waves of fabric create a smart but simple finish that's easy on the eye. A wide Tempo heading pleat makes curtains fall in soft, regular waves, so they will always look just right. Team it with a sleek, modern suspension rail that the curtains glide below and let the curtains sit flush with the floor so they'll look neat open or closed.


Stylist's tips A cut-velvet pattern adds a luxurious edge to this otherwise pared-down window treatment.
