drape definition and meaning

What is a "drape"?

A drape is a type of window treatment that consists of a long piece of fabric that is hung from a rod above a window. Drapes are typically made of heavier materials than curtains and are often lined to provide insulation and light control. They can be used for both functional and decorative purposes, as they can add style and privacy to a room while also controlling the amount of light that enters. Drapes come in a variety of styles, colors, and materials and can be opened and closed manually or with a motorized system. They are a popular choice for formal living spaces, bedrooms, and dining rooms, where they can create a cozy and inviting atmosphere while enhancing the overall decor of the room.
