Visible details
A patterned outer drape gathers at the side beside soft vertical folds of white sheers. The close-up contrasts a detailed motif with a quieter surface. It shows the gathering clearly, although the full window proportions and available side wall are outside the frame.
Room context
Compare this direction with a living room that already has patterned upholstery. Assess the sofa and curtain motifs from a similar viewing distance. Where the room contains many details, decide which layer should occupy most of the visible window area.
Window questions
How wide should the gathered outer panel remain, and where would its tieback sit? Check rail space for two layers and provide a full window view. Ask to compare the motif on a sample both spread out and gathered.
